Thursday August 18, 2016 - Our future is bright.

A new USA Today polling of 18-34 year olds, shows that the future leaders of our country, support our bathroom use based on presentation and not a birth certificate. They also agree that discrimination against the LGBTQ is a big problem.

My opinion is that this poll shows that the Transgender community has growing long term support within the community. Of course there will be haters out there. But the future majority is with us. We need to make sure we are open to that support.

Sometimes we spend too much time looking inward and we miss the opportunity to accept support. On a personal level, we miss the opportunity to be that positive role model in a one-to-one interaction. To smile, say hello and project positive karma, when the opportunity arises.
