that's really sad. This is a proven person here, not someone who just got elected or applied to a post that required in any way that he be male.

It's just ugly and stupid to me. I wonder if Florida has any laws against this as a state.

My heart goes out to him.

Why was the first thing I thought, when they mentioned his salary, that they wanted to get rid of him because of the general lack of wage parity in our country -- a woman wouldn't be paid that much?

Gut reaction, of course.

That is ridiculous. Sadly expected, but ridiculous nonetheless.

Completely and utterly repulsive. You might not understand why someone has a sex change, but you can't freaking well fire them for it. I hate shit like that.

You have no idea how ashamed I am that I used to live in Largo, and that it's only about 5 minutes away from me.
