Transgender's Transpass problem
A sticker SEPTA uses to cut down on fraud with its Transpasses has caused an unusual problem.
Now, that problem is at the center of a lawsuit.
Charlene Moore-Arcila says she used to use a Transpass to ride SEPTA, and now she uses tokens.
This, after an incident in 2006 in which a driver did not let the 42-year-old male to female transgendered rider using her Transpass when boarding the bus.
The Transpass cards have stickers, with "M" for male and "F" for female.
Living as a woman, Charlene was using a female sticker. She says the driver told her she couldn't use the transpass, because she's not female.
But, she says, she's also been stopped when her transpass had a male ID sticker. (Vídeo)

Was transition a mistake?
Q: Oh my God! I just don't know what I am going to do. I think I have made a huge mistake and I don't know what to do about it. I saw a TV program the other night about people that had transgendered and then decided to go back to their original gender. Well, I couldn't believe that there was any one else out there like me. I, too, feel like I made a big mistake by having a gender change. I was born female and always thought I wanted to be a boy and also believed I would be happier if I were one. I truly thought that God had made a mistake with me.
