Ron Gold, Jim Fouratt, Norah Vincent et.al.: Why Do We Attack Gays and Lesbians While Giving Transgenders and Transsexuals a Pass when they Say the Same Thing?

Ron Gold over at Bilrico managed to get himself trashed for daring to write about transsexual and transgender people from the limited perspective of a gay man who probably came out in the World War II period.

He displayed a remarkable level of ignorance regarding the nature of the "Transgender (as umbrella) Community".  From his point of view the transgender community was either drag queens and butch dykes or transsexuals.

The big question should be... Why do we expect gay men and lesbians to be more understanding than heterosexuals? Do straight men show a whole bunch of sympathy or understanding towards straight ->-bleeped-<-s? Or for that matter, why do transsexual and transgender people get a pass when they say the same thing?
