ezs note:  This is the report we've been waiting for.  Awhile back, I filled out the survey, and urged others to do the same.  Now, the US Transgender Survey is out.  In its long form, it's a long read, but in my humble opinion, this is one of most important documents you'll ever read.  For those more comfortable with Spanish, a shorter document is available.

In other words, read it!

Just to clarify things...

There are those who believe that the main reason that I have for disagreeing with Donald Trump have to do with his points of view.  Well, yes, they do exist.  But they are not the reason.

I do it because he is a goon.

I do it because he is a stalker.

I do it because he is a F&%#ING RAPIST.

(See "Fresh Air" with Terry Gross on WNPR.)

Hope this helps!

ezs note:  Congratulations, Mr. Suprun!  You are doing your civic duty.  Republican electors, remember, you do NOT have to follow in goosestep behind Chancellor Trump.  I may be a Democrat, but I am perfectly comfortable with a Republican who understands the spirit of serving ALL of the people - and that's "serving", not "ruling".

ezs note:  You may have missed it the first time, but a little after 10 pm (after the news)  Eastern time, you'll have a second chance to hear Fresh Air with Terry Gross.  Today, she interviewed Nicole Maines, who at the time she was going to school, she sued for the right to use the bathroom as any other student would. There is also an interview with a lawyer (separately).  To hear this, just go to WNPR.
