Kudos to the Massachusetts legislature for passing the Transgender Equal Rights bill, extending anti-discrimination protections to all residents of Massachusetts. The bill awaits signature by Gov. Patrick. The Senate and House versions can be found here: H.502 and S.764, but the most critical section of each is quoted here: "The term 'gender identity or expression' shall mean a gender-related identity, appearance, expression, or behavior of an individual, regardless of the individual’s physiology or assigned sex at birth."
