Gender Discrimination Survey

I just took the newly-released National Survey on Transgender Discrimination, and urge you to do so, as well. In responding to the survey questions, I realize just how smoothly my transsexual transition has been. I was unable to say "yes" to any questions about discrimination at work, in seeking medical attention, in dealing with the police or law, or in my daily routine. I don't know whether it's because of having power, as one of my friends asserts, or because of having some money (or at least having come from a moneyed family in my home town), as was detailed in a blog post a couple of months ago, or maybe some other factor.
