Autumn, what policy changes and lobbying are necessary for the Transgender movement when you exclude the Transsexual from the equation? It may be a stupid question, but I'm unable to think of any off the top of my head
There is no doubt in my mind that the premise for the question is incorrect.
There isn't a movement to exclude transsexual people and transsexual people's issues from transgender activism -- transsexual people's civil rights are perhaps the major focus of transgender community activism.
