THE U.S. TRANS SURVEY LAUNCHES SUMMER 2015!!!! I've signed up! Its time to be heard!!

"ABOUT THE SURVEY
The U.S. Trans Survey is the new name of the largest survey ever devoted to the lives and experiences of trans people. It is the follow up to the groundbreaking National Transgender Discrimination Survey (NTDS), which was developed by the National LGBTQ Task Force and NCTE and released in the 2011 report called Injustice at Every Turn.

The NTDS has been the source for data on trans people and has provided critical information for advocates, policymakers, media, and academics with over 15,000 media hits. The USTS will be conducted every 5 years to learn about trans people's experiences over time, how things are changing, and what needs to be done to improve the lives of trans people.

The USTS is a survey for all trans identities, including trans, genderqueer, and non-binary people, and will be the largest and most diverse trans sample to date. The USTS is our community's survey: the USTS data set and results will be available to community advocates, organizations, and researchers for years to come."

Was I discriminated against for being trans? Yes

Does it bother me? No

Do I want somebody to do something (whatever that something is) about it? No

I took some kind of survey years ago (maybe 10 or more years ago). It didn't make any difference then and it won't make any difference now. I don't want to be a negative nancy but I don't see the purpose.

If you think its pointless then keep living your life happily and redirect your attention away from this thread honey. Because you're being just that. A negative nancy.

And another thing.. YES ONE VOICE WONT MAKE A DENT. But 1000 voices will! And in order to get 1000 voices you have to input your ONE VOICE.

Thank you for sharing this, as someone new to transitioning, I want to share what I know and experience so maybe down the road someone else will be able to not have a road block.

I wonder if there's any point in me participating since I haven't personally experienced anything significantly negative related to being trans? Would my input be useful in any way?
