There is a group of extremists in Massachusetts that want to block any transgender rights legislation.  The issue at hand is a bill in the Massachusetts legislature for a vote this summer.  This group labels this bill as Transgender Rights Bill H1728: "Body Multilation Bill"    Their web site has the following "lengthy study" http://www.massresistance.org/docs/govt09/tran_law_study/

The piece goes on at length to mention extreme situation after extreme situation which they claim could happen if the bill is passed totally ignoring the facts then the article goes on to smear transgender people and with the tacit assumption that transsexualism does not exist.  All people are what their genitals say they are according to their belief.   They have a photo of Diego Sanchez the noted transgender advocate who works for Representative Barney Frank. The caption starts with :

"This is a woman who has taken hormones to grow a beard who calls herself Diego Sanchez."
"Be yourself; everyone else is already taken." Oscar Wilde

"Anyone who attempts to play the 'real transsexual' card should be summarily dismissed, as they are merely engaging in name calling rather than serious debate."
