This was the year that GENDA was to be passed, the year the GLB community would "come back" for us, adding gender identity and expression to the hate crimes and nondiscrimination law where GLB people are already covered. Governor Paterson, in his "wisdom" then introduced marriage equality legislation even though it was commonly held that it would never get through the state Senate and almost all thoughts about GENDA were pushed aside.<br /><br />I am a serious defender of marriage equality because I know how the inequalities affect trans people as well as LBG people. I wish more BLG people would realize the same for gender nondiscrimination law.Emelye Waldherrhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00075495654072343031noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2612946722366528344.post-70049912488864121112009-05-28T22:32:59.718-05:002009-05-28T22:32:59.718-05:00What a really great, well reasoned, well presented...What a really great, well reasoned, well presented, well researched piece!<br />Makes me want to stand up and cheer.<br />This is precisely the conversation I have been hoping to see started!<br /><br />Slainte Chugat!!!Erisishttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13845772187685500914noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2612946722366528344.post-13086000026983326462009-05-28T20:51:25.801-05:002009-05-28T20:51:25.801-05:00Not to Worry as I believe the recommendation of WP...Not to Worry as I believe the recommendation of WPATH will be to leave a Diagnostic Code in ICD-10 of Transsexualism or Transgender Identity but remove all Gender Identity Disorders from DSM-V.<br />It has happened already in Sweden and France, could we be next.
