The legislation without inclusion of the transgendered community is defective enough where I think opposition is justified. The most vulnerable people in our community are not the organized gay and lesbian community, but the fractured trans community. Often gay and lesbians can blend into society, but those of use who identify as transgendered or transexual, particularly those of us on hormones, are easily spotted, and easily dismissed and politically weak.
I see no great benefit in supporting a group who is so easily leaves their fellow sex minorities wounded and dying on the political battlefield, in a self defeating attempt to save themselves.
