      Wow. A little too much time hangin' with Tegan and Sara, i guess. FTR, I really like Against Me!, even though i don't listen to much punk rock anymore. I wonder if the hormone treatment will affect his/her voice at all? That would be a damn shame, as I think he has one of the best punk rock voices in existence. It's the reason Against Me! is even on the map, IMO.

        So he's not attracted to men, but wants to be a woman and still be married to his wife?

          Hopefully he's not a resident of North Carolina.

                  I love against me and have seen them live and seen tom play acoustic. He does have an amazing voice. Some of his songs point to gender identity issues and in one he sings if he would have been born a women he would have been named Laura, or something to that effect.

                    Apparently he is a lesbian trapped in a man's body.

                      Wow. So is he ditching the penis or what? How does wifey feel about this, or maybe she's a closet lesbian and this is for her? So many questions...

                          Is this a publicity stunt?
