Party Girls – TGs Just Wanna Have Fun

Party Girls. TGs Just Wanna Have Fun by Drew Lazor on Philadelphia City Paper.
While gays and lesbians have many social avenues in Philadelphia, the transgendered (TG) community is rarely invited to the party. Living as a TG person means you closely identify with the opposite sex, and sometimes dress accordingly. Unfortunately, it also means you run the risk of being ridiculed or ignored at many nightlife venues. The reasons for this marginalization vary?while some embrace those who live as TG people, others unfamiliar or uncomfortable with the lifestyle completely dismiss it.
