A transpinay is a transwoman of Filipina descent, whether born inside or outside the Philippines. The Manila based organization that has been a strong and vocal advocate for the rights of transpinays is called STRAP, the Society of Transsexual Women of the Philippines.

STRAP is celebrating its 4th anniversary as an organization and one of its members, Pau Fontanos edits the PinayTG blog. It not only keeps up with events in her life, but gives you a window on what's happening as our transpinay sisters struggle to attain their civil rights in the Philippines.
