Isn't it interesting, the way that different cultures have chosen to deal with this?

I just ran across this AP report. The Massachusetts Department of Education has issued rules on transgender students. From the article, the rules sound pretty good. Here is the link: http://www.boston.com/news/local/mas...GTL/story.html

I just found this article about recent changes in health insurance in Oregon. It has very broad implications for the whole of the US. I hope that the insurance commissioners in every state take notice of this, and take action to start protecting transgender people. http://www.americanprogress.org/issu...alth-coverage/

Default CNN Money covers Transgender financial struggles

CNN Money interviewed six different trans people on unemployment and financial struggles. (There are also other articles in a box on the right.)

It seems that a California university expelled a transgender student for 'fraud', as she told the truth on her application to that university, in the question that asked her gender. She did so, and now they are upset about it. Here is the link: http://www.huffingtonpost.com/2013/0...ef=mostpopular
