      Marshall Mann Dude, I swear I’m stuck in the 90s. I literally cry cause I miss them so much. I even married my high school sweetheart from Toronto and brought her to Chicago because I love her and our daughter and the life we built but also because she was there during the best years of my life. Tons of memories, I swear I mourn the 90s at least once a week. I can’t let go of that era, they were the simple days back in 1996 to 1999 when I was a 15, 16, 17 and 18 year old impulsively crazy dude. Those 3 years felt like a lifetime, thought we’d always stay friends, though it was brief it was filled to the brim with memories. I feel like I lived more in those 3 years than the last 20 years of adulthood. 😔😢😭

    Robert Arquette was much more attractive than "Alexis Arquette," who appeared more like a circus clown than a happy and self-satisfied person. And actually, as himself in the video uploaded here, Robert seems fairly masculine, especially when compared with the interviewer in this video, the late Skip E. Lowe, who acts much more effeminately. But all that said, it is still tragic that anyone should have to endure bullying and be a target of violence simply because of how one appears and/or behaves, so long as that behavior is not harming anyone else.
    Also, one has to be aware of one's surroundings and, for self-preservation's sake, especially if one is a male, sometimes tone down effeminate behavior in certain company or in somen geographic locations. Such is just the reality of life. And no amount of hate crime laws (which may protect one at school and at one's place of employment, but not always out on the street) can alter the fact there will always be some people who will target others who behave in a manner which is perceived deviant from the norm. So better to stay alive than risk walking around with a bullseye on one's back.
    And even Robert is reported to have said in the last period of his life he had regretted having gone through a so-called "transition," that it is not really biologically possible to change one's gender and one has to just try to be happy with the body with which one is born. One may only wonder if "The Decathlete Formerly Known As Bruce Jenner" has discovered that wisdom yet.
    Now that is not to imply one may not still try to make some practical improvements to one's self if one so chooses, such as by healthy dieting and exercise, having flattering hairstyles, good grooming and the wearing of clothing which truly complements one's physique. But sensible improvements are very different from extreme measures, such as are even many non-sexually transitioning cosmetic surgeries (facelift, rhinoplasty, etc.), which rarely appear natural anyway, as with the cases of the late Michel Jackson and Joan Rivers.
    It's perfectly fine (in the correct places and in appropriate circumstance) to cross-dress and also to have an innately homosexual inclination, which may well be congenital or mostly so, but even if of environmental causation, unchangeable. But to mutilate one's body in an attempt to satisfy some fetishistic compulsion is a very drastic step with no actual satisfaction to be ultimately obtained from such a process. And the high suicide rate among so-called "transgendered persons" would seem to indicate that futility is also the truth.
