    your 'muslim friend' should be ashamed of themselves.

    You know heterosexual isn't the opposite of transsexual right?
    Edit: See Emma-Ashley's fantastic post below this one.
    OMFG i know I'm just painting an image of a normal human being a heterosexual female/male.

    There is nothing abnormal about not being a heterosexual cisgendered individual. Atypical maybe, but not abnormal.
    And if you were to pay for a block of lessons and then discover that your instructor did not fit this identity, you wouldn't get your money back if you pulled out. And your Muslim friend would be done for assault.

    What would you do if your instructor was a trannasexual (shemale, Transgender, "t-girl, transvestite w/e
    you classify them) I'm not trying to be rude but me and a couple mates were having this discusion.

    I said if it was a man opting to be a women i would do a runner, but if it was a women opting to be a man then i may stay.
    This may be due to it being a social norm for women to wear mens clothing etc so I probably be immune to that problem.

    My mate on the other had a muslim said he would probably insult and punch them and ask for a refund. Crazy i know.

    But seriously guys what would you do, no political correct bs here please just 100% true.



    you do know that male to female transexuals were never actually men in the first place and female to males were never actually women? (unless they identified that way previously but the majority don't)

    I want to kill people to say I'm changing from a woman to a man. No, I might be female assigned at birth but I was never a woman

    anyway, I'd just be pleased I had found another trans person and then get on with driving

    hate mongering I'm literally laughing xD. Never said i hated them, just wouldn't be comfortable especially in a situation were you would have to learn to control a machine which could take someones life if used incorrectly.

    Lets get something clear no to assaulting transsexuals, YES to avoiding transsexuals.

    I would be completely weirded out, and probably run a mile.. and need a long time to think about it.

    Not because I have anything against transexuals; but because my driving instructor is my Dad, and I would be more than a little shocked!

    "Yes to avoiding transsexuals," yet you say you don't hate them? Prejudice and hatred aren't just physical violence, you know... Maybe instead of moaning about how trans* people make you uncomfortable you could try being tolerant and understanding? :rolleyes:

    Get off your moral high horse. I can say i want to avoid someone and not hate them at the same time.
    Like for example when i was in primary school, every friday me, mum and my sister would give homeless people in our local cemetery some home made ham sandwiches and some tinned beans.
    I would certainly avoid a homeless person if i was given the chance to, but i do not hate them. I will give them some spare change/food but i would not like to be locked in a confined space with them or make any kind of physical contact with them. Some people just trigger some things inside people to cause them to feel uncomfortable, maybe their smell, looks, choices etc.

    Impossible to be political correct every bloody time face it.

    Driving lessons are stressful for learner drivers. If i was a learner driver, i would try to control every single variable, so they would have a positive effect on my learning.
    Imagine school kids crossing a zebra crossing, your instructor tries to aid in your downshifting and you flinch causing a hazard, which could end in several fatalities. How would you feel like after, knowing that you could have changed a variable (your instructor) which would have produced a different outcome, zero fatalities.
