Last week the Massachusetts legislature did their final vote on a transgender acceptance bill and the Governor signed it and there was great rejoicing.
Today while driving down my street I saw a couple out walking. I've seen them before when I was out walking (en femme) and we always smiled back and greeted each other as we passed. They seemed very friendly. What I saw today, though, was that he (err...she? err...the usual male of the pair) was out walking in a mid-length wool skirt and a very nice long-sleeve top (chilly day.) I'm so thrilled! I wonder if the new law drew them out? I'm hoping next time I see them we can stop and trade pronouns.
