Happy Civility Day!

This is the one year date-and-time anniversary of the original posting of this diary; oddly enough, given the past two weeks here at The Blend, the anniversary of this particular diary is the actual reason why we originally picked today to be The Blend's Civility Day.

This diary below was, and still is, an important diary here in the history of Pam's House Blend. The reason this diary was and is so important is because it set the institutional tone here regarding the civil discussion of trans, transgender, and transsexual people and issues. It was the declaration that Pam's House Blend, as an online lesbian, gay, bisxual, and transgender institution, was positoning itself to be a welcoming and safe place for all of our transgender blenders -- no matter which part of the trans umbrella our trans blenders fit under.
