I know that at times patience is not a virtue for this community. Seeing that we have the Forces of Intolerance engaged in by any means necessary opposition to trans human rights coverage makes us even less so.
But patience is exactly what is needed at this juncture, and we also need to realize that trans rights progress is a marathon, not a 100 meter sprint we run in world record time.
Like all of y'all I wanted trans human rights coverage yesterday. I get irritated with the delays and roadblocks in passing trans rights legislation that have at times come from our so called allies and frenemies.
