I am editing my current material to work their staff and am also putting in some parts about trans-men as they get ignored a lot in Gender identity awareness.
It feels good to do this again and I get a £50 fee and travel fees paid :-)
Here is a statment I use, it was god to read it again
"The problem with transsexual men or women is not that we are trapped in the wrong bodies.
This truth is a trivial affair corrected with hormones, doctors and sharp scalpels.
The problem is that we are trapped in a society which alternates between hating, ignoring, tolerating and attacking us and our experiences.
More importantly, we are trapped in the wrong minds. We have, for too long, been trapped into self-hate".

Fantastic statement!
I ran across a one by Voltaire the other day about "not all truths being for all times" and was thinking about so much of the dogma that "society" uses to reinforce it's stereotypes and hatreds.
So very glad you are doing this!
