SPOILER ALERT re: Golden Globes. Tonight a gay man won an award for playing a gay character and thanked his husband - any of that was unthinkable only a few years ago. Straight men won for playing gay men and then thanked their wives and that was progress at the time. It was - it helped make tonight possible. In that spirit, I appreciate the progress that a show about a transgender woman won an award for best TV show - as did the man who plays her. Its huge. Even so, I look forward to the day when the transgender woman who plays a transgender woman wins the award and even more to the day when a transgender woman wins for playing a woman whose trans identity is neither the story nor a consideration. That will say a lot about how much farther we will have come.
