I bring this up because, in the past week, I've posted three video interviews (with Shannon Minter, Kate Kendell, and the queer couple Mila Pavlin and Jayna L-Pavlin) where my guests and I discussed how marriage equality is more than just about lesbian and gay people.
Apparently, this isn't a discussion that LGBT community is having outside of Pam's House Blend.
And yes, I do know that the gender identity and expression that is associated with being transgender isn't a sexual orientation -- unless perhaps in the definitions of some civil rights and protection legislation (such as in the recent bill that died in the North Dakota House). And yes, I do know that bisexual people can marry people who are legally are classified as the opposite sex from themselves.
