    Apparently this is making a bit of news. There's a community for trans people that I just discovered, called wehappytrans.com, and Stephen Ira, who happens to be a strong gender activitist, intellectual, and all-around interesting person, made this lovely, quirky video answering 7 common questions.

    I thought people might enjoy watching it.

    Never heard of this site before. Looking at it now. We need more sites that are positive beacons for trans people. We don't get very much support. Even on LGBT sites, we are often pushed to the background. EC is one of the few examples where this doesn't happen as much.

    Speaking of being trans and nerdy:

    I liked that video and I am touched there is a place for happy trans people to share their positive experiences. One day when I'm a happier person maybe I'll contribute something. =)
