Trans-feminism vs. Feminism, Part II

Transsexual women, who had always been an important part of the ancient Goddess traditions mostly disappeared from view with the subjugation of those traditions. In the late 1950's Second Wave feminism was born as a result of the vast social experiment to return women to the home from the factories following WW II. At this same time, the first noted transsexual woman of modern times, Christine Jorgensen, also came into view. Christine was stuck within the same framework as other women of her time and dealt with it with grace and dignity but left only with "entertainment" as a venue to support herself.

I find that woman's blog to be incredibly troubling.  I wasn't too sure about this particular post and went looking through others to get a better sense of the writer and maybe find out what her problem with Kate Bornstein is, and very quickly found posts that imo lacked any amount of sympathy or thoughtfulness.

Cathyrn is a well-known for her opinions, which she holds quite strongly.  Her involvement with the transsexual rights movement go way back to its very beginnings.  She's strong coffee, and not everyone will care for her flavor.
