Re: Two points

That's fair, the ENDA may not be the best of examples because of the obvious flaws in unbacked legislature. But things like advocating for transsexual surgeries being covered by insurance/universal healthcare is one thing that the TG community has undeniably pushed for that doesn't really benefit the non TS members of the umbrella.

It's stuff like that (among the fact that TG folk are often give more legitimacy as a concept than TS folk), that makes me extraordinarily skeptical of these claims of subsuming and colonizing of TS people by TG folk.

And I think it's important to note here, just being post op won't get you a job. Passing capacity is usually what allows that, even for pre op and non ops.
