I ASK myself about the Swindon Pride how many of the trans community were at the Pride, if any? Also the trans are not represented on the Pride commitee.

I am transsexual and an activist. The trans in a lot of Prides are minimal and in Swindon few if any.

Saying it’s LGBT is a misrepresentation of the fact. The T (trans) population is so small that we rarely get a say on any LGBT panel.

Re Bob Reucers’ letter in the Adver of August 11, I would say yes it is necessary for the LGB community to let the population of Swindon know that it is fun to be gay or bi-sexual.
