In my role as your fabulous celebrity style correspondent, I attended a benefit for the New York City-based Transgender Legal Defense Fund last night.
This was smart, sexy and making a difference, but it was no empty, glitzy, shallow fund-raiser. Celebrating its fifth anniversary, TLDEF is an organization that works for trans equality through a combination of public education, test-case litigation, direct legal services, community organizing and public policy efforts. Our success as a community depends on institution-building, and the trans community needs more organizations like TLDEF.
