Hillary Clinton is going to be the next President of the United States and look at all the trans friendly people who are endorsing her campaign.
Can you imagine endorsing a candidate that doesn’t support gays and lesbians?
Why not? They don’t have a problem supporting Presidential candidates that don’t support transgender people, and why would you [...]
Years before my transition, when asked how I felt about abortion, I would jokingly I would say, “personally, I’d never have one.” It was my way of wiggling out of this very sensitive hot button issue without really answering the question. I don’t have the reproductive ability to carry a child to term, so [...]
With the ongoing battles between radical feminists and transgender bloggers, I’ve spent a lot of time thinking about what it means to be transgender. Radical feminists, in the vein of Andrea Dworkin’s dream of an “androgynous society,” hope to demolish gender roles.

The headline from a recent Rex Wockner PrideSource post screams “Transsexual becomes mayor of Cambridge”.
What would you think of this headline: “Gay becomes mayor of Cambridge”? Now, I know that “Lesbian becomes mayor of Cambridge” does work, but that’s because being a lesbian denotes sex automatically.

In reading the recently published “Interview: Transgenderism Emerging on the Heels of Homosexuality in Media” at the Christian Post, I sat amazed with my mouth agape at the following statement.
“When you look at Scripture for example, when Paul talks in 1 Corinthians 6:9 about the following group of people will not inherit the Kingdom of [...]
You’ve probably heard of the ex-gay movement. You may have even heard of the ex-ex-gay movement. Odds are slim that you know anyone that is ex-transgender. But have you ever known anyone that is ex-ex-transgender?

In 1997 I confessed to my wife that I’d cross-dressed most of my life. [...]
“I know some of my transgender sisters question my commitment to their equality, but let me be the first (I think) to point out where the top-three Democrats on in inclusion of gender identiy in federal hate crimes legislation (where I support it) and the Employment Non-Discrimination Act (where I support in principle adding it [...]
