I feel like screaming this because it's so amazingly awesome. So, instead I'm going to be productive and tell you all about it! ^_^

Many of you don't know that I'm a Transboy, Ftm, etc. I was chased off from my old summer job last season because my boss found out and would not stop harassing me. I left battered and a little scared to go out and find a new one. When I have struck out I have been met with opposition because my name is still legally female and not the male one that I go by everyday. Which is a slight problem because I pass as male. ^^;;;

This morning at 12:47am, the Connecticut Senate passed the bill that would add Gender Discrimination to the list of things you can't discriminate against when hiring a person or giving them housing. All we are waiting on now is the Governor to sign it and it goes into affect.

This means I no longer have to worry about my gender being a factor in me getting a job!! Well, I do, but it's now illegal to do so.

SO EXCITED!!!!

Anyone else have amazingly good news? ^_^
