Post a Comment On: TransGriot

[Image]I have much love and respect for my fellow Texan Kat Rose. She has off the charts intellect and we have a lot of similar interests that have made us good friends over the years. She's a historian, legal scholar, and one fantastic writer.

And has a wicked sense of humor.

One of the things that our opponents want to obfuscate is that transpeople have always been able to get married. That was the case in the early 60's when Jacqueline-Charlotte Dufresnoy booked Paris' Notre Dame Cathedral to marry her first husband, when transpeople in the US did so for decades such as Avon Wilson without drama until the passage of DOMA, Mexican transpeeps Diana Guerrero and Mario del Socorro did in 2008 and South Korean trans model Harisu doing so with her husband Micky Jung.

Check out this 2004 cited Deakin Law Review piece Kat authored on trans marriages entitled '"The Proof is in the History: The Louisiana Constitution Recognises Transsexual Marriages and Louisiana Sex Discrimination Law Covers Transsexuals- So Why Isn't Everyone Celebrating?"

In light of the ongoing Araguz case, it has heightened importance for us.
