Transgender protest

They're the "T" in LGBT. People born as one gender, but living as the other. Now, San Francisco's transgendered community is fighting against a Federal gay rights bill they say would leave them in the dust. Congressional leaders say they have no other choice.

Haha. I shouldn't of laughed at that. I did. I'm going to hell....

I support it! I can see where employers are coming from though. See, most of the country is still in the dark about transgendered ppl. So they fear, and discriminate against what they don't know. Employers basically don't want to scare their customers away by having a man dressed like a woman to represent their company. NOW HEAR ME OUT, IT IS TOTAL BS AND I DO NOT AGREE WITH IT, but i think that is the main reason why they wont hire trans folk.

Everyone is an individual and has their own talents and strengths that a job would want. The fact that a boss will have homophobic employees run away, or he won't be able to hit on a man that he thought was a woman, doesn't change that. Being transgender doesn't get my respect but it doesn't provent job ability.

it's not the fact that they are transgender...its the fact that they are just ugly. Just don't be ugly.

As far as 'featured person' at the top of the clip... does ANYONE think they want to portray themselves in a poor way? Are all of us Master degree graduates? Has everyone heard of EDITING and PROPAGANDA? I know that chick and she's cool, how would you stand out when a cnn cam it shoved in ur face? Look, everybody.. stop pointing fingers/placing blame and look in your hearts.. we ARE an intelligent country... GET IT TOGETHER PEEPS!!! aome of my bf's are tg. some are str8t.. who cares? LIFE

'that blonde chick', yeah, she's like my best friend. asshole. and she's done a WHOLE LOT more for America's social understanding than you will ever. Get it, ass: it is a PAIN to be transgendered... (btw - do you get the diff between TRANSGENDERED and a drag queen, there ass?)

Finally: There is a reason for me responding like this. Despite I have relatively little ideal how to check these comments... PEOPLE ARE PEOPLE. WE'RE ALL IN THE SAME BOAT, HELLLLOOOOOOOO?

[ViciousSilhouette]

but also, you have to deal - hopefully, and in a positive way - with dealing with THE REST OF YOUR LIFE. I'd say, now.. 'how would it feel?' but you know what? YOU'D NEVER KNOW!!! GET IT?!?!?!?!?!??!?!??!?!!

The asian girl is a wonder, she's terrific and works her *ss off for the community. The chick on the get of the interview - (name n/a) - is a PERFECT example of wtf is wrong with the lgbtq community.... laugh at your ignorant cousin, then eh?.. ( cont see next post)

[ViciousSilhouette]

(then I see what has been posted... -in my 'name' as it is...)

Transgendered people are just like any other HUMAN BEING. They eat, breathe, feel, and have the same (if not more...) intelligence than alot of people I have met.

Imagine if (and I'm going to make it real simple here for obvious reasons..) you JUST KNEW when you were young, that u felt u were in a different body - life - possibly gender. You are not only assigned a life of pain/confusion [see next post]

[ViciousSilhouette]

Alright, ladies and gentlemen...

This is ViciousSilhouette. (J)

I've unfortunately (or fortunately...) not been aware that this is 'conversation/postings/exchang­e' has been going on at all. AT ALL until my 12 yr old niece said hey! Your Youtube shows this that and the other. [see next]
