Victoria, I agree that the LBGT laws do not benefit us. Even at the Austin pride, I was one of the very few crossdressers there. Also, yes most people think it is a mental issue. Perhaps it is, yet many of us knows a bit why we are crossdressers. I do go out with my SO and enjoy an entire day out there with her in a conservative area. I do think I pass okay and get called mam by everybody when out. But still I know it is viewed strangely. I do not see that changing for a long time. Our current society is not tolerant of people that try to change their views, even if we try to stay to ourselves.
