I do know that one person has been extradited, I don't know all the details but this individual has a history (molester and possible rapist), this information was found out weeks later of him being on camp and I don't know if he hurt anyone at our camp... possibly. Homeless are more than welcome though some have turned up intoxicated (ice or other) and violent which leads to unpleasant situations. TRUST is something that must be earned. Never throw yourself to strangers. It is very concerning that sexual assault is being ignored at Occupy LA when this is a movement dealing with human rights. If it's truly ignored assaults will only continue driving more people away from a cause that had the opportunity to work or it will brew into a media frenzy with credible ammunition to use against the movement. The people at occupyla sweeping assault under the rug should not be in the "leader" positions they're in and shouldn't be there indefinitely. Peace and Love means protecting your SISTERS AND BROTHERS I pray, hope and wish that this issue is not wide spread and can be resolved. Thank you for having the guts to write about this.

Kink.com must have taken it from my website, because I took it. You're welcome to it, but please be aware that the sign was meant as a joke at the SciFi Museum, not as a statement about gender. In fact, there's a similar sign for the men's room. Actually, that picture is from the Seattle ScFi Museum. Kink.com must have taken it from my website, because I took it.

Thank you! I do know that transspecies people exist, and while I didn't know that before I did becoming dragon, after doing it I've changed how I talk about the whole project, expanding the notions of trans to include all other kinds fo trans, transspecies, transabled and more and to help people understand that while struggle has brought some acceptance for some kinds of trans, there are so many more possibilities for being in the world that many people have never even imagined!

I don't know if you knew it but, real transspecies people do exist, people who feel they are born in the wrong body.... not gender, but, they feel phantom wings, tail, etc. and feel a deep longing for flight, kin bond with a particular species, or such other things. You live in my area and I really wish I could talk to you... about you think what directions these things can go. In the future, we really will have surgery to change our bodies? I'd like to discuss the possibility, what it can mean, what a world like that can be like, where we live with many different species we can communicate with. where we can be whatever we want to be. A true transhuman freeing paradise.
