I still have serious concerns about HB 235, the flawed Maryland trans rights bill that doesn't cover 'public accommodations.'

And to give you an idea of what I'm talking about, here's the legal definition of 'public accommodations, why I'm harping on it, and why I'm not happy that language has been left out of the flawed Maryland Trans Rights bill

If they are pushing for full marriage rights, but say that equality in public accomodations for transpeople is a step too far, that's bull.
It's easier to change your sex and gender in Iran, than it is in the United States.  Way easier.

Please read my novel, Dragonfly and the Pack of Three, available on Amazon - and encourage your local library to buy it too! We need realistic portrayals of trans people in literature, for all our sakes
