This person was a transwoman, not a gay man. Sexual orientation and sexual identity are two completely different issues.

What most likely happened was she simply wanted to experience life as a normal young woman and was killed by bigotry. It is absolutely disgusting. If you disagree with someone's lifestyle, just leave them be. I disagree with the horribly Nicene Christian church up the street, that praises their creator (Satan) loudly all the time. What, would it be okay for me to grab a molotov cocktail and burn it to the ground in the name of all the innocent Gnostics that people like them massacred while playing true Norwegian black metal? Of course not.

Even if you don't like what someone is doing, the civilized thing is simply to let them be. As we can see Jamaica has more than its share of barbarians among its population.

Well than by your logic the preacher who showed up at the GAY PRIDE FEST in SEATTLE with a sign CONDEMNING HOMOSEXUALITY should also have "known the culture" and you should also wonder "what made him think he could prance around with a bible at a gay party in the middle of secular, modern Seattle?"

What's good for the goose....

I knew a guy from Vermont who flirted with a woman at a club, at the end of the night he started kissing her and then got really upset and really angry to find that this "woman" had a penis and balls under "her" dress. And I would say that in that case, this transgender person was completely in the wrong for trying to pass for a woman, I also would consider it sexual assault and akin to attempted rape.

Again, I don't care what gays, lesbians and transgenders do, but don't try to force your agenda on straight people. Don't try to convert us to your lifestyle. Just be with consenting adults who have your same way of life.
people trick people into sleeping with them all the time in many ways. this is not criminal. how about people be more cautious if they're worried about being tricked.

Not at all. Just tired of ignorance. You people think that anyone against homosexuality is a closeted homo. Ridiculous.

And that happens a lot less than people think. I was in the gay neighborhood in Seattle and a very cute girl was talking to me and she let me know right away that she was not even transgendered but was CD (cross-dresser)

Transexuals ARE people born in the wrong sex. Drag Queens are people who just perform and CDs are people who dress as another gender of kicks. There are so many ignorant people who don't understand these things.

But I knew, as a straight guy, that you have to watch out in a gay neighborhood...and I also knew she was a boy when we started making out.

The difference between "straight" and "curios" is four servings of Meyers rum and club soda...

People around the world don't give a damn about what Americans think about them. Everybody is not P.C. like americans are. Homosexuality is not excepted in a lot of parts of the world.

and, let's be honest, most of the time you can tell. I have never met a transgendered man (female to male) who I couldn't tell used to be a female. some people just believe what they want to get freaky, but want to get embarrassed when others find out. we know how the game is played. one of my best friends is gay and he used to do drag shows. "straight" men used to come on to him all the time. he stopped hooking up with them when he realized what they were all about.

Fanciful and wishful thinking on the part of this young man...not to mention horrifically bad judgement . I don't think he was asking for trouble- I believe he was not thinking- Jamaica is a really rough place were straight macho men who challenge each other can kill one another in a heart beat. You don't wander into a den of lions if you are a sheep.
