Woah, this is big news for trans people:

MWMF Ends Womyn-Born-Womyn Only Policy!

"We didn't expect to change anyone's minds in the workshop -- but in the end we didn't need to. The support we found was overwhelming."

Both trans women say they were moved by how friendly and supportive other festival attendees were.

"We spent all day inside the festival, talking with other women about how Michigan has grown to embrace the diversity of women's experience," Lombardi said. "The attitudes of festival goers have definitely shifted since the early 90's."

i must say this pretty much matches my experiences, overall . . . . almost all my close friends are female, and none of them have a problem with me identifying as a woman. And in fact, in recent times, it's predominantly been 'pro-feminist' men who criticise and/or attack me on this point. What does it say when women accept one's female identity, but men don't?
