According to this quote, trans activism fits perfectly into the gre<strong>at</strong>er social movement which fights against<br />
those who revile femininity. ―I argue th<strong>at</strong> trans litig<strong>at</strong>ion should be considered an integral component of<br />
feminist <strong>and</strong> gay rights advocacy‖ (Flynn 2001). Instead of excluding <strong>and</strong> dismissing different individuals<br />
<strong>and</strong> subc<strong>at</strong>egories from the community, the trans community has been granted the opportunity to affili<strong>at</strong>e<br />
itself with other groups th<strong>at</strong> are fighting for the same things; basic civil rights for all regardless of their<br />
sex, sexual orient<strong>at</strong>ion, gender, or gender identity.<br />
