I applied to 2checkout.com for a payment gateway. My site was refused because Transgender was an option in the Join Page.

Did you try calling them and asking them what they have against transgendered persons? Ask them if they also hate gays. Geeks, making the world a better place |
I have emailed them.. no response. I have posted a photo of the email on my singlebooklovers.com facebook page as well as a liking and posting on a transgender page. Then I clicked promote on FB... and turned on a credit card... this pi$$es me off and I'm willing to spend a few dollars I don't really have to let the world know. There is not a person out there who does not have somebody in their family not exactly like them... Now, I need another provider to backup paypal which seems to have wigged out.. I have a ticket open with them. Peer Peer L. Plaut Executive Director, Single Booklovers Connecting Bookworms Since 1970 |
Don't blame you for being pissed off. I know what it is about; most likely. They see transgender and think, "Oh, this is a porn site". Just like the misconceptions about gays. I had someone to tell me that gays were perverted because of the Catholic priests that have sexually assaulted boys. So I turned around and told her; in that case, heterosexuals are perverted because of all the men that rape women and molest little girls. That shut her up. It is amazing how narrow some minds can be. Geeks, making the world a better place |
Amen.... rather than ASSUME my site is porn, they requested an account to look around, they could log onto my site and see VERY clearly these people love books more than naked people.. but hell, these days a naked Greek statue is porn.... sigh...
