TransGriot : Is It Something I Said?-More Musing About B.Scott

Fri, 18 Apr 2014 04:55:26 +0000

Many of us on the end of the trans umbrella and gender line segment who live our lives as African descended transfeminine women have been in some cases for decades out there taking the slings and arrows of being trans as we live and fight for recognition of our humanity and human rights." With all due respect, are you serious? The way that paragraph reads, to me, is that African descended transfeminine women are the only ones fighting the battle for equality! ALL of us, regardless of skin color or origin, who are trans are fighting that same battle, every day of our lives. Obviously you misunderstood that paragraph, because that NOT what I said and I fail to understand how you could interpret it that way.

Um no it isn't....RuPaul's Drag Race has only been on the air since 2009.. So how do you explain transpeople being cut out of NY's GENDA in 2002?

Womanist Musings : Ani DiFranco and the Problem with Hero Worship

Wed, 8 Jan 2014 10:41:34 +0000

Yeah, you were. You started out in the first paragraph with this 'this statement was disingenuous' "Ani’s fauxpology refers to the people bold enough to speak out in the name of justice as having 'a high velocity of bitterness.'" It cant be interpreted as anything but you defending Ani

TransGriot : 2013 UH Cougar Watch-Going Bowling

Sun, 22 Dec 2013 18:32:11 +0000

And that's what scares UT.. UH is sitting right in the middle of prime football talent turf, and if we had been in a major conference instead of stuck in C-USA, we'd be getting the lions share of that talent and be a national football powerhouse. One day the H-town kids will wise up and stay home to start at UH instead of sit on the bench at Texas for one to two years before even getting a chance to play.

Sat, 21 Dec 2013 11:39:24 +0000

One problem with all the secession talk. 75% of the state opposes it. Non white Texans oppose it despite the fact we are and have been since 2009 the majority population in the state.

The New Civil Rights Movement : Breaking: Louisiana City Passes Ordinance Banning Anti-Gay Discrimination

Wed, 11 Dec 2013 19:45:22 +0000

For the new ordinance to cover the LGBT community, it needs to have both sexual orientation and gender identity language in it. Does that new ordinance meet that criteria?

TransGriot : I Don't Want Trans Civil Rights Crumbs In Houston

Mon, 21 Oct 2013 06:15:46 +0000

Mayor Parker clarified her stance during the televised debate in favor of it. When I asked her point blank at a another forum, she reaffirmed her support for adding sexual orientation and gender identity. addition to our non-discrimination ordinance. Ben Hall on the other hand is opposed to it.. .
