We've tried it the gradual way: this political climate needs something else.


I'm a good example: people love my work, but refuse to accept me in society as a shaggy, non-passing transvestite. That's the Lysistrata method: I won't perform until I'm completely accepted as a crossdressing man in a dress.


I'm hardly the only one who could do this. We could go on a strike of some sort across the board.


Like, imagine this: the entire trans population takes a day off work to protest NZ First!
