If any of you folks in Cali (San Fran) can make it...

What we want

I really wish I could go to this! But I know there are a lot of trans/GQ/allys in San Fran, so maybe our voices will be heard and the APA will actually pull their heads out of their asses and start treating us like people.

Viva la France!

France becomes first country to depathologize transsexuality/transgenderism

It is because the WHO decided on the 17th of May 1990 to remove homosexuality from the list of mental illnesses, that this date has been retained for the International Day Against Homophobia and transphobia, celebrated Sunday, starting Saturday in many places.

It is therefore symbolic that France chose this time and date to be "the first country in the world" to "remove transgender identity from the list of mental diseases", commented the IDAHO Committee. This "historic decision" is also "an explosion of hope for all trans persons around the world", according to Joël Bedos, secretary-general of the IDAHO Committee

My list of reasons to get the fuck out of this country just keep growing. Go France!
