Leave The TDOR AlonePosted by Monica Roberts at 2:53 AM
As TDOR 2008 recedes into the rear view mirror of history I wish to comment on the efforts of some people in the transgender community to turn the Transgender Day of Remembrance ceremony into a happy-happy joy-joy event.
Leave the TDOR alone.
There are 365 days in a year (366 during leap years), which is probably why our presidential election campaigns seem so endless.
If you wish to have an event that takes a happy-happy joy-joy approach to publicizing transgender issues, by all means organize it and promote the hell out of it. If it's a good one and has no connection whatsoever to the Homosexual Rights Corporation, I'll even post whatever press release you put together for this event on TransGriot.
