ok, so i have to post about the tranny conference i'm at. it's tg law center's tg leadership summit...sponsored by numerous org.s and companies in ca...i.e. the conference is free and they even had scholarshps for many, many of the participants who cannot afford a hotel. how valuable is that? a conference that is accessible to virtually all who want to participate (although only 250 capacity); and the good news is, that kind of structure ensured representation of many, many voices. and is very much planned by a diverse group of trannies in CA, beyond TLC.
i even am able to excuse the fact that Grumann, a fat cog in the military industrial complex, is a sponsor of the conference. Shit their money paid for discounted rooms at the Bonnaventure for lots of trannies who would not have been able to come otherwise.(Amanda something or other? a tg woman who ran for arizona congress apparently is an engineer at Grumann and has made all kinds of inroads there on behalf of trans workplace policies and protections....and $$) Strange bedfellows we end up with--sluts through and through! speaking for myself anyway.
