Would you be happy to sit knickers down on the pan in front of men and women? I know I wouldn't

What's the chance in most towns in the country, of bumping into an obvious transexual in a public toilet. I'm sure little old ladies are the last people to notice. There really isn't that many about. I mean, in the world most of us live in, we are not being plagued by them are we?
It wasn't that long ago that we had the same fear about gay people. People seemed to be under this assumption that gay people were somehow a threat to people of the same sex. They were treated for mental illness. Doctors tried to cure them. They were beaten, threatened, teased and humiliated and male gays were considered a threat to male children
Now, thank god, people have been educated about gay people. Laws have been put in place to protect gays and give them the same rights as heterosexuals. Gays are no longer seen as sexual deviants. They can get married, and they can adopt a child.
