Default A link for my trans friends

I hope I'm posting this is the right forum, please forgive me if I'm not. My good friend Tony Ferriolo is the co-founder of The Jim Collins Foundation, which is a foundation that gives grants to trans folk in need of surgery. The recipient of their first grant just posted a video on YouTube of his journey and how he's now trying to raise awareness and money for this cause. Here's the link:

Great article. This is where more trans activism should be going, toward all trans prisoners, detained immigrants, so-called "illegals," and related populations such as the homeless/low income and sex workers. Across the board, that's where most are suffering.

The Gender Identity Law has been approved by the Argentine Senate, just now. This law allows to change your gender legally without need of approval of a court, or compulsory GRS. (I haven't seen this reported anywhere outside of Argentina, for some weird reason.)

Edit: Here we go, some news in English: http://hosted.ap.org/dynamic/stories...05-09-20-32-45
