This is great! Thanks for posting. I will pass it along to the transwomen I know.

Nadeest · 05-04-2012, 08:07 AM

I will definitely be checking their products out, when they are available. Thanks for letting us know about it.

Jerks.

Nadeest · 05-05-2012, 02:43 PM

I agree, they were acting like jerks, in that hospital.

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.

This is a study about genderqueer people. It was based on the dataset that resulted in the report: "Injustice at Every Turn..." http://www.thetaskforce.org/press/releases/pr_042312

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.)

Good news for Transgender inmates in the Federal System. http://www.ojp.usdoj.gov/programs/pd...final_rule.pdf

Nadeest · 05-22-2012, 04:55 AM

It appears that the Department of Justice has accepted the EEOC's ruling that gender identity and transgender status are covered under Title VII of the Civil Rights Act of 1964. YAY!!!

Neat little story on China's oldest transgender woman. Also, at the end of the article is a series of 20 short videos on 20 transgender "pioneers".
