Anne, this has me puzzled. Why should the transexual community be more mysterious than gay or lesbian folk?

I thought I already explained why, Mark, in that most of us have gay and lesbian friends, but I don't think we really understand the trans-gender community. Perhaps I'm just assuming that because I don't know any transgendered individuals nor have I really heard their voice being aired.
But I try to avoid listening to the far right, so perhaps they have also attacked transgendered people and I just don't know about it.
