It turns out that basically everyone running the anti-trans campaign against Houston's equal right's ordinance is a sexual harasser, pedophile, or sex abuse apologist. Also, we answer your questions in our 2017 year-end special!

Answering your questions

While we've seen it before, we sometimes don't see the political forest for the trees. The TransAdvocate crew reviews both local and national news and Dr. Gillian Frank helps us recognize the political tactics that are being used against the trans community by noticing that the exact same tactics were used against numerous other groups.

Common Unity: Community

We've all spent the last two years being more engaged, energetic, outspoken, involved, and far more political than we've ever been and it all comes down to election day. So, now what? We thought we'd have on a longtime radical Lesbian feminist, who happens to be a therapist, to help us figure out how to move forward.

- TERF research getting exposed as BS
- Which generation shares more BS online
- Alexis and Robin talk about their non-binary trans experience

Accents, Tango, Candombe - An interview with Dr. Viktoria Papp

THIS on 90.1 KPFT's Queer Voices radio show from 1/14/13. 

The Houston Intersex Society on 90.1 FM KPFT Radio

Working with transgender clients can raise fundamental questions of policy. A trans client’s presence can challenge long held assumptions and belief systems about the very nature of gender. Not only can these issues become challenging for the staff and management, a transgender person’s presence can present issues that may challenge the gender stereotypes held by other clients as well. A fundamental decision many facilities are faced with today is whether the client’s right to services is worth the possible challenges a transgender client’s presence may inspire. This resource presents information to assist providers in improving substance abuse treatment for trans clients by raising awareness about the issues unique to these clients. It is hoped that sensitizing providers to these unique issues will result in more effective treatment and improved treatment outcomes for transgender persons within the drug court setting.

Intro to Transgender Issues: Substance Abuse

News, essays, and talk about issues affecting the transgender, intersex, and genderqueer community.
