So what's like the least absolutely awful dating app if you're #trans
I was planning to finally look at one if only to find some local gamer/fuckbuddy friends (moreso than a relationship tbh) but that whole thing has...made it pretty awkward and it was never going to be fun
For many trans people, being able to transition can be absolutely life changing and life saving.
One person told us "Before transitioning, I could not see myself in the future. That person didn't exist, there wasn't a space in the world that I could fill. Now there is."
If you're saying that #Trans people cannot use lavatories of their legally assigned and recognised gender, you're essentially saying they cannot safely use lavatories in public places at all. Which means you're saying that they cannot travel, and cannot exist in the public realm. Which means you're also saying that that legal recognition is meaningless and worthless.
Trans people are our brothers and sisters, our comrades. Is this really the world we want to build for them?
@simon_brooke My argument exactly! What is the issue? Women’s toilets are all single cubicles anyway. Or just have cubicles separately that can be used by anyone. I get men’s toilets are often filthy, but get them cleaned regularly and have a separate space for urinals if you insist on having them.
The Epoch Times is under investigation for money laundering, but the site's role in spreading anti-trans misinformation has gone unmentioned in mainstream coverage of the case.
An Epoch Times link that showed up in a story for the Atlantic is a particularly clear example of the laundering process on trans stories that goes fringe right -> far right -> mainstream.

Die Torys setzen im vorgezogenen Wahlkampf in Großbritannien auf Hetze gegen #trans Menschen.
Nicht nur haben sie als letzte Amtshandlung vor Auflösung des Parlamentes die Verschreibung von Pubertätsblocker durch private Praxen verboten, Rishi Sunak wirbt auch jetzt bereits damit, dass er nach Wiederwahl den Equality Act ändern will, sodass nur das „biologische Geschlecht“ einer Person bei Gleichbehandlungsfragen zählt.
Nach unten treten ist eben immer noch beste Wahlkampfstrategie bei Rechten.
How many times have you looked at this trans person or that trans person and found yourself just in awe of them, feeling hopeless to ever measure up to their transness? I know I have.
This week on #StainedGlassWoman, Red Seems Sus, which means we're investigating imposters... or rather, why trans folks often feel like we're not trans enough, or not really trans by comparison to others. I promise: you won't be thrown out an airlock! 🤭
@Impossible_PhD as always, great article. Unfortunately, I am not good enough at being trans as I don’t dress feminine enough or voice train as often as I should. Therefore as a bad, imposter trans I shouldn’t say anymore
The business secretary and leader-in-waiting told media that managing almost a fortnight of campaigning before announcing discriminatory measures against an embattled minority to win support from wavering bigots shows the Tories are a party of ideas.
@Patricia_rcga Ah huh didn't realize you could change the license separately. That and house deed would be the main thing...need my last parent off of it first too so not a huge rush.
Iowa says it requires "A notarized affidavit on letterhead from a doctor including statement that your sex designation has been changed by surgery or other treatment, include the physician's full name, address, state of medical license, and medical license number"
URGENT, DUE TODAY! please help Evel! xen is #Indigenous, #trans, #disabled, exhausted, and has a family to support. xen is fundraising for their monthly bills and housing.
Woohoo! My first #progesterone Rx arrived this morning. I imagine tonight might be interesting. First time in almost 13 years of GAHT that I'll have prog.
Debating oral vs anal (boofing) administration. I've seen the anecdata indicating boofing is much more effective. And I really would like to see some movement toward Tanner stage 4. After all this time, I'm still in Tanner 3. 🤷♀️
I really appreciate the support from you. I think your articles had a definite (positive) effect with my doctor and her concerns over the cardiac situation. 💜
