Breaking the APA's chains pathologizing transsexuals for power and wealth

I am but a drop in a growing tsunami of trans people who have been shaken awake by a global earthquake of injustice that's epicenter is our gender. We have begun inundating cities with our conversation and protests feeding the timeless rivers of change. Our waves of activism are now flowing over dikes of bigotry spreading onto fertile plains nurturing new perceptions of the gender diverse.
We are doing this not just for ourselves today, but for our future generations to come. We are standing shoulder to shoulder, regardless of nationalities or religious beliefs universally rejecting the medical establishment's pathologization of our beautiful gender spectrum.
