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.

Genderbitch: In ur gender, revealing ur privilege

Hi.

This is a blog. About transsexuality, feminism, misogyny, transphobia, homophobia, GLBT stuff and etcetera (check my tags for more on that). This is also an angry blog.

You might see me as slightly antagonistic. Oh well. I incite because I am trying to push people into thinking, discussing and breaking out of the stagnant bullshit of privilege. Which needs a nice firm kick quite a bit. Sometimes to the head. If I need a nice firm kick too, make sure to distribute it because well, I'm not immune to privilege either. XD

Anonymous (account-less) commenting is allowed but please sign it with an alias or name. I reserve the right to delete useless trolling, hate language and attempts to out my name or out anyone else here.

Welcome to my space. Take your shoes off, stay a while. Use the fucking coasters.

~R.P.
