When Nick Teich created a free account on the online personals site BiDatingNow.com last week, he decided to disclose that he is transgender. Perhaps he shouldn't have.
"They say, tell us about yourself in your own words. And I stated, 'I'm a 25-year old trans guy living in Boston.' ... I didn't want to mislead anyone looking at my profile, so that's why I put that," said Teich. Within a day he had received three "smiles," which members send to express their interest in getting to know each other.

QuoteBrown told Bay Windows that despite TangoWire's exclusion of transgender customers the company strongly supports the LGBT community.
"The founder and CEO is gay, and we have an operations person who is gay. It's a very liberal workforce and company as a whole," said Brown.
Ummm, sounds like the company strongly supports the G community, forget LB and T. Especially T.
