The New York Times yesterday ran an article about several transgender political candidates running in various parts of the country.

It's interesting to note how many such candidates there are.

Are transgender people finally entering the political life of our nation, and not hiding in the shadows?

Well, this is only a handful of people, so I wouldn't go so far, but it is a harbinger of things to come. At this point, I would say that most trans people are severely marginalized, but there is some light peeping through the clouds.
