I have been questioned by some as to why I feel that performing for LGBT Pride events are important to me.

Those of us affiliated with the transgender community have felt for quite sometime that lesbian gay and bisexual organizations and pride functions exclude our community.

We are constantly disappointed when its time for organizations and legislators to support our community only for these organizations to show us time and time again that the transgender, transsexual and/or gender non-conforming community is not important and can be dropped from the discussion, out of legislation or not included at all.
