Equal at UCF

mission-equality:

“Trans is not an abbreviation.  It is not Latin or Greek. It is a term that has developed over the years, a neologism of sorts that tries rather hard to encompass a wide variety of people and persons who usually have very little in common. It’s the commonality that defines it, though, not the differences.

I’m going to point out that the Trans community is an amalgamation, a collection of very different social affinity groups – it’s like a much more complicated version of the LGB all unto itself.

And the one thing they all have in common is that they do not conform to societies expectations of how someone of their physiological sex assigned at birth is supposed to be in the culture they live in.

That’s it.

That’s what makes someone Trans. That is as simple as it gets.”

Check out the link above. I think it is well written, and will help out a lot of people that need to be educated on trans. If I could have everyone read this I would. Thanks to my mother-n-law for bringing this to me.
