He also received a gender-affirming double mastectomy whilst in hospital for hypoglycemia
“lmao while I’m here can you chop the titties thanks”
What I find really interesting in this article is that for the most part, society treated him normally. When it came up to a potential legal matter, that’s when it came up.
I think we take for granted this idea that LGBT people have always been not accepted by their societies. Certainly his wealth and status factored into things, but ultimately the man joined the military. He become a Buddhist monk. He was seen as a man by basically everyone around him.
After Dillon’s death, it was reported that his brother wished the manuscript for Out of the Ordinary to be burned
they hate seeing a trans guy succeed
I can’t read the Billy Tipton article for similar reasons. It’s just gross how the media and his family treated him.
The guy was beast modeing life.
I had never even heard of him before, so thank you for the post.

I don’t know whether to applaud your courage for saying that joke because I’m shocked you did, or eat popcorn for the outlash from it.
To be fair, I feature his penis surgery as the thing that makes him interesting here, when he was really more complicated a person that just being a trans guy.
I think that’s a great point. No one should be known as trans, they should be known for who they are. Things they’ve gone through is interesting, but no one is a singular event.
Ngl, I’m both disgusted and laughing.
