Yesterday, I was listening to the radio, when a report caught my attention. It was about the city of Berkley,CA and how they would like to set aside $20,000 a year, aavailable on a first come first served basis, for any city employee who wishes to haveSSRS. The applicant would need to be in the final stages of transitioning; ie) already undergoing hormone therapy, and living and dressing like the gender they are becoming for at least a year. Personally, while I totally support the trans community, and honestly believe that changing one's gender has got to be the hardest thing that anyone can do, I do not think that this is a good way to use public funds. A government should be using the funds to help the majority of their constituents, not just one or two city employees a year. What do you think?
