As a member of the community, I believe that it's my moral obligation to support equal rights for LGBTQIA in marriage, property ownership, the workplace, etc. Not because I'm gay, lesbian, or transgendered, but because I elieve that any group, color, or creed, should have basic civil and human rights.

When discussing gender identity, I believe it’s important to include the word intersex. Intersex people commonly exhibit traits of the gender opposite to their birth marker, and suffer some if not all of the same discrimination as others in the LGB and particularly T spectrum, since many opt for gender corrective surgery when they’re in adulthood, thereby becoming part of the trans* community.
