Ay yi yi!! That puts it in perspective!
We were at a conference yesterday, one which included a transgender workshop I now heartily regret I did not attend (I was at a different one the same hour). I'm hoping there will be another opportunity soon, because for all my activism, I tend to throw out the word "T" very perrfunctorily, without such a handle on the issues, necessarily. But seem to be getting there.
Thanks for the book rec. I've been thinking lately that I could do with a good study on trans issues.
