Supreme Court to rule on two cases that could reshape access to health care for LGBTQ+ people
As you probably already know, Caitlyn Jenner accepted an award for courage for coming out as trans and being who she is. Her speech was absolutely fantastic. We don't have to flashback very far to know that there was a time when transgender issues weren't the highlight of news. Even though the 'T' may be the last in 'LGBT,' there is a lot of representation that is currently going on in the media through T.V. shows, movies and pop culture. 
Watch our video and let us know what you think about trans representation in the media on Twitter!

        Should We Drop the "T" in LGBT?
    
Kat Blaque
January 28 2016 / 4:09 PM
There's been a lot of debate on multiple sides about whether the "T" should be part of LGBT. There are many arguments for or against. I have several opinions on both sides, so I thought that I would just give you my take.

        What It's Like to Get Laser Hair Removal As a Trans Person 
    
Kat Blaque
November 16 2015 / 2:06 PM
I got laser for the first time about a year ago. I get a special kind of laser called "yag laser." It is specifically made for people who have dark skin and dark hair. I've had pretty good results, but I haven't gone in for a year or so. I get it on my face and I wanted to show you all what it's like.
