'(Melbourne, Australia) A transsexual who transitioned from male to female in 2002 has been handed a difficult choice by Australia's Federal Court - either divorce your wife or keep your male designation of official documents'.

Wow... just wow. That is seriously f***ed up.

The registrar cited Australia's ban on same-sex marriage as the reason.

In 2004 the Australian government passed legislation defining marriage as between a man and a woman (story) and Prime Minister John Howard has refused to consider national civil union legislation.

Any trans people who don't support gay rights, take a good look at this. Right wingers use homophobia  against us trannies, too.

Equality for all LGBT people.

And gay or lesbian people who don't think we're fighting the same fight, look at this too. We are all in the same battle wearing the same colours.
