It's about time they used the terms "she" and "her" properly.<br /><br /> I would appreciate it if you read my blog, http://emilysvirtualrocket.blogspot.com. The blog is a virtual compendium of articles from newspapers, newsweeklies, and magazines, both popular and scholarly. The articles have a viewpoint toward transgender / transsexual news. If you like it, please put <br />"Emily's virtual rocket "under the title commonly called <br />"Blogroll". Thank you so much!<br /><br /><br />Sincerely,<br /><br />EmilyEmily Shorettehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10271950981131095434noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4834395892091327520.post-73287608898712984432010-11-01T19:18:37.595+00:002010-11-01T19:18:37.595+00:00Thanks both!
