Dr Russell Reid - Make your Support Known Online

The Transsexual UK website now calls upon the UK and World Trans Community to leave messages of support to Dr. Russell Reid at a special blogspot situated at http://russellreid. blogspot. com/. This will prove an important boost at a time he needs our support the most.

Dr. Reid has given assurance that he "will read your messages whether good or bad", but adds that he "may not be able to respond at this time." He also said that he "appreciates the support given."

Dr. Reid has long been a world renowned psychiatrist for transsexual people, and who is currently under a five week trial by the General Medical Council. He has helped countless transsexual people over the years.

According to Peter Tatchell, (Human Rights Activist), disciplinary proceedings against this leading sex-change doctor bring shame to the medical profession. He goes on to tell more at the blogspot, or particarly at the Guardian's Comment is Free site. This is found at http://commentisfre e.guardian. co.uk/peter_ tatchell/ 2006/10/dr_ russell_reid_ unjustly_ accus.html

Additionally, you might want to comment on the particular comments by the controversial journalist, David Batty, who writes that Sex Change Experts shoulds err on the side of caution.

Focus put on transgender issues

What God thinks of gays and lesbians has been vigorously debated within religious communities in recent years. But there has not been a lot of talk about how God views those who believe they were born the wrong sex or think having to choose between male and female genders is too limiting.
