To say I'm angry at some of my trans peers for their comments on white, gay men in the diary Aravosis Needs To Issue His Own Apology To Trans People Before Citing TGs Regarding Fed LGBT Issues is an understatement.

How does one take a diary about one famous blogger's comments on trans people and turn it into a thread where white gay men are attacked with a broad brush? Especially with the diversity focus of Pam's House Blend? Incredible.

Frankly, I'm more than a bit disgusted with some of my trans peers who commented on in that thread, and I've sent out warning emails to a few telling these particular commenters that painting white gay men with a broad brush in unacceptable.
