Accused: Dana McCallum has been charged with three counts of felony spousal rape by her wife after an alleged incident that occurred the night after McCallum served her with divorce papers
Quote:
McCallum has been listed as one of the top ten most important LGBT people in tech and she has spoken at length about her transition after being born biologically male.
She and her wife, who has not been named due to the nature of the crime, had been married for more than six years.
The San Francisco Examiner reports that the 32-year-old engineer and her wife were separated but were still having sexual relations by the time of the alleged crime.
McCallum had served her wife with divorce papers on January 25 but they met up at some point that evening.
At 2am on January 26, police responded to a sex assault call at a residence in the Mission district of San Francisco.
McCallum's wife accused her of rape, but McCallum has denied any wrongdoing.
Outspoken: McCallum, pictured, has openly written about how she was born a biological man and has transitioned to living as a woman
Quote:
She is known to be an outspoken advocate for equal rights and has published an essay version of the talk she gave last year to an LGBTQ (Lesbian Gay Bisexual Transgender and Questioning) group at her old high school in Indiana.
Actually they were married before she transitioned
Ok this is even more wierd, so the victim was bi?
The irony sits at the fact that its a widespread belief that women cant rape, but there we have woman that was born a man that raped another woman, that was with the woman before actually becoming a woman.

That's not irony and she probably identified as transgender before and just didn't fully transition. I'm sure it takes years.
