I think trans people deserve the same respect as anyone else. Gender and sex are often confused in the mainstream media. Sex is a biological trait (Ex. You are born either male of female), gender however is much more complicated. Gender roles in society are a very complex social issue. This complexity is what leads to the various different genders. So is it a mental illness? No. Would some members of the community benefit from mental health aid? Sure. But, the same could be said about any subculture in society. If you are interested in reading more about gender roles I recommend checking out James Baldwin. He is a fantastic author who speaks on gender roles pretty frequently.

Performing anal sex does not eliminate the risk of catching STDs. As with any type of sex (oral, anal, vaginal), protection should be used.

in one word, very. Fortunately for us, we have an excellent grant writer as part of our organization, so she plays a huge part in funding the organization. Another huge part is donations. Literally every single dollar helps us in one way or another.

Thank you for asking a question! The hardest part of the job would probably be the stigma associated with it. Working with drug addicts who perform male sex work isn't exactly a "normal" job, so when you tell people you work in the field, they assume that you were previously a male sex worker, or drug addict. Personally, I haven't felt this way, but it can be a struggle for other employees.

The most rewarding part of the job is helping people to become the best that they can be. Often times people who are drug addicts, or sex workers are viewed as inhuman to a degree. So, helping them get clean, find jobs, and stabilize their life is truly rewarding. Everyone deserves a chance to make their life better.
