Earlier Transkid Transitions Leading To Earler Trans Access Rights Fights

http://transgriot.blogspot.com/2011/10/earlier-transkid-transitions-leading-to.htmlOne of the things that continues to put an exclamation point on my comment that trans people aren't going away or back in the closet is the fact that transpeople are coming out and transitioning at earlier ages.
Instead of delaying transition until mid to late adulthood, we now have in the early 21st century transkids coming out as early as elementary school. That means the access battles we used to see play out with the primary venue being the workplace because of those mid to late adulthood transitions now occur in elementary, middle, high school and the collegiate level with the corresponding ripple effects upon society.
