Interesting Comments in Digg Article

April 27, 2007 on 12:09 pm | In General |

In a recent post on Digg about a sports reporter for the LA Times, I was actually taken aback by some of the comments. Granted, you have usual array of people who fear transition and transsexuals, but a large number of the comments are quite well-informed and even supportive. The first comment, in particular, now at +79 diggs, demonstrates a much warmer reception that I would have predicted:

Seriously? This guy deserves a fucking medal.

Publicly announcing, to sports fans, that you’re going to be losing your balls and becoming a woman… well, it takes balls.

I hope the GLBT community gives him props for raising awareness.

So, in a word, thanks Digg folk!
