"The voices of intolerance have distracted us with the shiny object in one hand (same-sex physical acts) while pulling the wool over our eyes with the other hand regarding gender expression and transgression. It's not about sex. It's about how far from gender conformity someone drifts. It's about the "too feminine" male or the "too masculine" female. People aren't discriminated against because a same-sex physical act has been witnessed. They are discriminated against because of assumptions someone makes based upon their gender identity expression."
