As many members may have heard, Grace Abrams, an Australian based post-op T-Girl recently (Sep 28 2007) won a court case to have her Australian passport with 'F' printed in it. The reasons given for refusal before the court case, was that she was married to a born female and currently the Federal Govt. does not allow same sex Marriages. So Grace took the Minister to court and won. This is another small step in our community.
