Questioning ENDA: Since I’m On Moderation At Bilerico…
Apparently I’m on comment moderation at Bilerico even though I’m a former contributor and a verified user. So, I’ll post my question to Dr Jillian Weiss here: Dr. Weiss, I’m kinda confused. You’ve said here that: I do not have any reliable info on this. My feeling is that I will not abandon the effort to get job protections based on rumors. If the language comes out, and it is unjust, I will fight to get it changed. Dr. Jillian T. Weiss | March 12, 2010 10:29 AM but here you say: If you all think we have had a problem, just wait until you see the new language in ENDA that separates the transsexuals from the transgenders. Hold on to your hats. Dr. Jillian T. Weiss | March 9, 2010 5:34 AM Which is it? You seem to be contradicting yourself from three days ago. Three Day Old Weiss

Why this article may matter
Community significance
“Questioning ENDA: Since I’m On Moderation At Bilerico…” may matter to community readers because it preserves a first-person or testimonial account connected to media, rhetoric, and discourse, while also engaging interpretive analysis. Such accounts can document how an issue was understood and experienced from within the period or community being discussed.
Historical significance
As a publication record from 2010 at Transadvocate.com, “Questioning ENDA: Since I’m On Moderation At Bilerico…” provides dated evidence of how media, rhetoric, and discourse was being argued in relation to interpretive analysis. Comparing it with earlier and later records can reveal changes in vocabulary, evidence, and emphasis.
Policy significance
No dominant policy frame was detected in “Questioning ENDA: Since I’m On Moderation At Bilerico….” Its policy relevance, when present, is therefore likely indirect: the article’s treatment of media, rhetoric, and discourse may shape later arguments about institutions or public practice rather than proposing a specific rule.
