The National LGBT Bar Association Conference begins today. Much interesting grist for the mill here.

I will be presenting in a panel on constitutional rights to gender autonomy today, along with three highly-regarded law professors whose work in this area is very interesting.

My presentation will center on the right to privacy, and the full-length article will be coming out this Fall in the Touro Journal of Gender, Race and Ethnicity. The title of the article is "Gender Autonomy, Transgender Identity and Substantive Due Process: Finding a Rational Basis for Lawrence v. Texas."
