Can I be Roz when I grow up?

Transphobia is not just about being horrible to transfolk; it is about being horrible to people who are not horrible to transfolk.

The addendum is especially good.

Yup, I read that a couple of days ago on lj, and found that paragraph in conjunction with the last clause of the next one, to be a particularly powerful passage.

...that lack of respect became an issue in my life and that of women who loved me.

Prompted me to stay a while, and read a bunch more of her posts.

Yeah, rozk's posts from a few days ago are powerful.

This is good stuff from a consistently good poster. The overall theme of respect is truly important, and well stated.

Thanks for the pointer!

Thanks for the pointer to the article. It certainly articulates some of the head-beating frustration I have encountered.
