Hip-hop, trans people, and a glimpse of a hopeful future

Please also keep in mind, there are people attracted to transgendered folk, and there are jerks that objectify and fetishize us for it in creepy ways. Some of the transwomen I know have a hard time weeding out the creepers because they suck.

When I saw this article come through on my reader, I thought it was from some of my trans blogs. It’s nice to see it on something more mainstream. I think the bigotry trans folks deal with will only be lessoned if we are not treated as dirty little secrets, and erased, but discussed in mainstream media. (You know, as other than jokes, etc.)
