Trans Rights Movement Is Disappearing Before Our Eyes

"It was that simple. With the vote on Proposition 8 (in California) the GLBT community lost the right to marry. And we immediately disappeared from our rights movement as we used to know it."

This above was a quote by a transgender friend of mine, former-activist, later burned out in frustration and now closeted, and who wishes to remain anonymous. It's a sentiment I gravitated to shortly after.

Vanessa's blog post was a great analysis of exactly what's been going on. Great writing.
