hrc season’s greetings

 

via bay windows

HRC’s holiday card, a copy of which came to Bay Windows, probably won’t help matters much.

Among all the little photos included on the card, which join together to form the HRC equals sign, is one of L-Word actress Daniela Sea and her partner, musician and political lightening rod Bitch.

Rightly or wrongly, Bitch has become a controversial figure in the trans community for her decision to perform at the Michigan Womyn’s Music Festival, which bars transgender women from attending, and her public statements in support of the organizers’ right to exclude transwomen. This past summer the Boston Dyke March committee pulled Bitch from the event’s line-up after complaints from some attendees that her presence would create a hostile atmosphere for transgender attendees.

Maybe Bitch wasn’t the right choice to include on the holiday card this year, guys.

ya think?

  1. Given HRC’s treatment of transfolk, Bitch may have been exactly the right choice to reflect their sentiments.
