My new favorite blog, part personal and part political is Life, Law, and Gender by Denise Brogan. From the bio:
From high school drop-out to an MBA, from a war-time veteran to a confirmed pacifist, from bankrupt to a millionaire, from a child to a parent, from a committed married person (22 years) to twice divorced, and from a man to a woman – I am, or have been, all of these. I am a 48-year-old transsexual woman with a history and life experience that transcends labeling.
Life experience that transcends labeling? That’s my kind of people.
