I'm just wondering whether it's right to hold that, since they kicked out one of us, we should now kick out one of them.

My point is that it is the supporters of exclusionary policies that divide the community into an "us" and a "them" to begin with. Those policies define two separate communities instead of one.

My far from scientific estimate is that in the woman-oriented part of the queer community there are larger numbers of people who support trans-inclusion than there are those clamoring for exclusion -- especially among younger folks and people just coming out. Many women's spaces are inclusive now. So essentially the struggle for inclusion is over.

I disagree with the idea that struggle for inclusion is largely over. In Boston and some other areas inclusion has taken root, but there are still plenty of places where the story is much different. Even in places like Boston there is still a significant segment of the community that oppose inclusion.

That's not to say that trans-exclusion shouldn't be challenged -- it could still flare up and still holds sway in some places. I just don't agree with shouting it down. Those are the Master's tools.

The Master's tools? Shouting and protesting have been a tools of almost every political movement.
