Editors' note: Mara Drummond is the president of an independent computer consulting firm, author of the book Transitions - A Guide to Transitioning for Transsexuals and Their Families, and co-producer of the award winning film Unraveling Michelle.

In the national debate over the Employment Non-Discrimination Act of 2009 (ENDA), opponents of this ground breaking anti-discrimination legislation that prohibits discrimination against lesbian, gay, bi-sexual and transgender (LGBT) people in the workplace like to point out that ENDA will allow LGBT educators to continue teaching in the classroom. They claim that allowing LGBT educators, particularly transgender teachers in the midst of a gender transition, to continue to teach will "confuse" the children.
