A number of years ago I went to the Forward Motion Conference in Burbank at the time I was friends with several brothers as well as academics who were going to attend the conference and I was give a discount to go due to my having played a role in the early transsexual movement.

Prior to this I had listened to some activist talk and talk about some sort of united transgender community.

Now I have never shrunk from doing movement grunt work, passing out leaflets, collecting petition signatures etc.

For several years I had been trying to increase the number of transsexual and transgender people who would march as TS/TG people in the Pride Day Parade and year after year no matter how many leaflets I handed out the same dozen or so people would show up., put on their transsexual Menace t-shirts and trudge down Santa Monica Blvd.
