You all know why Iโm doing itโฆ
This is not a post to critisise trans allies. I am, however, increasingly shocked at the lack of outcry from most cisgender people to the ever rising anti-trans hate. Trans people in the US and UK are being legislated out of existence.
What will it take?
Please share.
Rev. Mariann Edgar Budde to Trump: "I ask you to have mercy upon the people in our country who are scared now. There are gay, lesbian, and transgender people in Democratic, Republican, and independent families, some who fear for their lives ... and the vast majority of immigrants are not criminals"

I as a trans person say misgendering and dead naming (using a trans persons pre-transition name) is transphobic.

Justice Tree pointed to the Cass Review's โdeficiencies, blind spots and limitationsโ and to โan overt political imperativeโ behind it.

I wrote a lot of my memoir, My Name is Philippa, in a Dublin City Centre coffeeshop most Sunday mornings, the staff knew me, I enjoyed the buzz which helped me concentrate.
