Last week, we ran a story called "Pioneer Transsexual Speaks out Against 
Supreme Court" (http://resist.ca/story/2003/12/27/173018/30) about Jamie 
Lee Hamilton's court case with Rape Relief.

We attached a poll to the story that asked "Should trans people be 
welcomed in women only spaces?". The results?

48 people voted. 64% said "Yes". "No" received 4% of the vote and the 
rest (31%) voted "It's more complex than yes or no". Interesting. By the 
way, you can still vote.

Also interesting is that even though 48 people voted on the poll, not 
one person made a comment on the story. Perhaps people don't know how, 
so below are some easy to follow instructions.
