We just don't have any conception of a person wanting to change from their assigned gender or sex without having some sort of perverted sexual agenda. That's the source of the bathroom hysteria. I'm wondering why nobody is freaking out about having him in the same locker room?feralCatnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6142743576584523533.post-81532365318608266372010-11-05T09:05:35.557-06:002010-11-05T09:05:35.557-06:00It's not like it's rocket science - be civ...It's not like it's rocket science - be civil and humane.

I think the response on the GW side is a kind of patting him on the head for being a good little trans man and not shaking things up too much.<br /><br />Those issues aside, I it is refreshing to see the story reported as if it's a story about a real human being. Amazing how little we'll settle for, huh?Amandanoreply@blogger.com
