I am going to state an opinion. OK I'm not American so changes there will have little or no effect on transgender people in Australia and Asia.
But I am an activist.
I fight every inch. I write letters, I fill in forms, I meet politicians and my voice will be heard. Yes my voice is often ignored. Politicians (at least here) can put obstacles in your way. But you find ways around them.
You change tactics, find lobbyists that are LGBTIGA friendly, you get advice and you keep fighting.
I know WPATH is putting in submissions, I know individual therapists putting in submissions. I know how frustrated the professional groups get by the negativity of the community. It is understood but it is still frustrating.
No nothing will change next week, no maybe not in my life time, but I shall keep fighting for my unborn brothers and sisters.
Sparrow you are a highly intelligent person. The beautiful prose comment was beneath you.
I am wealthy enough and secure enough that none of these issues affect me. But I fight for those who are not in my position. Maybe that is something we should all contemplate?
