And she got the news on her birthday! :)

There was a bit of a disappointment when she didn't appear in the Time 100 issue a few weeks back, after having been voted in the top five in the online poll, but we now see why.

Amber - this is a very big deal. It is being discussed by some rather red conservatives in a positive manner, the concept of identity vs orientation being noted and the seeds of acceptance sprouting. No admitted attraction, but the concept that trans women could be very good employees, managers, and the like.

I saw a transcript of a portion of Rush's show that Rush posted. He was not an asshole at all to the tgirl caller. No, he isn't there yet but he was civil, the big thing is - it is OK to discuss transgender issues in the very groups that in the past abhorred the idea.

Laverne has been mentioned numerous times at http://www.groobypost.com - as much as I love the fact she's on Time, the only reason it hasn't been updated is because there is no real story (other than the one liner "She's on the cover of Time").
Perhaps if someone could write an article on why it's so important ...

This forum is actually really good about having discussions not just about porn but also topics significant to the trans community. Its why I still enteract here.Its a well balanced place.
Some of the forums for your other sites (no names,I'm sure you know which one I'm talking about tho lol) lack threads showing ts woman in a more positive light.It seems like the majority of what gets posted as news is tranny fight videos and ts celeberty scandles smh.
Sorry if some of my frustration from that site leaked onto here.

I hope they didn't just put her on the cover after they fucked up the time 100 list which had her voted higher than most of the people who we're put on there. She deserves this accolade as along with Janet Mock, they're making huge steps forward for trans women everywhere

The Time feature has generated hostile coverage in the National Review and a a favourable one in the Telegraph of all places, I posted the two articles in the Oranges thread.

I linked a transcript from Rush where he was civil and not an ass. He has previously done Parody about TS which it was had to tell how he stood. I would say he is listening and studying, probably neutral. He has so many listeners that him being neutral already changed a lot of minds.

Kevin Williamson was beyond hostile, far into upsetting. I can understand someone having positions different than me, as long as they are rational. But he looked rabid to even the right wing social conservatives.

Thank you for your posts in the Orange thread.
