I've never understood the T-discrimination in the Gay Movement, It's a bit rare, sure, but when it rears its ugly head, it's usually pretty arrogant and proud of it.
We're in the same boat people, lets not pass out life jackets only to people you think are wothy of saving.
gentle_gamer's LJ:This articledescribes a situation in which a trans person was removed from a bisexual personals site for being transgender.
The site BisexualDatingNow.com, stated "We do not have a site appropriate for transgenders." and "It’s that T side [in LGBT] that we have not been able to fully accommodate within our program. That is shown [by the fact] that in our registration, transgender is not one of the options we provide, and we don’t provide that as such. ... That identity is not an identity we have an ability to support,"
The article also mentioned something about being a man on a lesbian dating site. I don't fully understand what that's all about, but regardless, their handling of the situation is very inappropriate.
If you're interested... they have a contact page that you can go to and send them a message containing your opinion on the matter.
