    Every trans person who's in a relationship, regardless of what their gender is or ever was they're either in a same-sex relationship or in an opposite sex relationships that somebody could claim was a same-sex relationship.

    ~Mara Keisling of the National Center For Transgender Equality, in the feature story United We Stand; Divided We Fall

Monica Roberts has a story up on this at TransGriot, entitled Malawian 'Gay' Couple Isn't A 'Gay' Couple. The Guardian even has a piece up on this, entitled Once Again The 'T' In LGBT Is Silenced.
