Sex Trans Awareness Week
posted by on August 17 at 12:50 PM
There are signs on light poles all over downtown Seattle proclaiming “TRANS Awareness Week.” I wasn’t even aware that we had a trans awareness week, so the banners are doing their job.
Trans Awareness Project (TAP) is the proud new recipient of a $15,000 City of Seattle Neighborhood Grant award, which will enable the first-ever week of Trans Awareness cultural festivities and events held in Seattle beginning this year 2007…. So far we have designed banners that will be displayed down the Pine and Pike Street corridors and will be the first visible demonstration of the Trans presence in this city, supported by the City of Seattle.
Trans Awareness Week runs from August 25 to September 1. You can read more about it here.
Those are nice banners .. They could have used the dates of the event on them, though, unless they're planning to reuse them next year.
It needs to be "Tranny Awareness Week". Until I looked at the site, I wasn't sure if you were talking about awareness of TRANSexuals or TRANSportation. (see: MASS)
Guess I should have clued into the fact that ECB didn't post it.
are you sure it's not trans-fat awareness week?
I heard Ann Coulter will be there. (Penalty Box for Me!!)
All kidding aside. This is outstanding that they are doing this!
Trans Ams are the greatest fucking cars ever invented. They've got fire breathing eagles on them, fer Christ sakes! EVERYONE is aware of that.
trans fat is deadly, everyone should be made aware.
$15K? that's a lot of cash for a Neighborhood Grant that doesn't leave a lasting impact on a neighborhood. Why isn't the city spending this money on something like p-patchs, trees, bike racks, graffiti removal, or something concrete that will actually improve life in seattle? I'm already plenty aware of trans issues; how does a banner improve my neighborhood?
Hmm...frankly, in my social circles, every week is Trans Awareness Week.
