http://www.atlantaprogressivenews.com/news/0576.html(APN) ATLANTA -- A former legislative editor for the Georgia House of Representatives is suing her former employers after she was fired for announcing her intent to transition from a man to a woman.
Glenn Morrison, a former naval lieutenant, was born with Gender Identification Disorder, a medical condition in which one's physical sex does not match the perceived sex of the individual.
After struggling with this condition from early childhood, Morrison was finally able to become the woman she felt herself to be in 2007, changing her name to Vandy Beth Glenn and dressing as a female.
