Just think it's really fascinating how differently Stephen & guests speak about trans people versus how they speak about Bailey the dog. That dog has been humanised more than the entire trans community.
Since I posted this fundraiser two days ago on my 10 year tranniversary I've raised over half my original goal of Β£15k.
I never expected it to go this well or to get this much support from, frankly, extremely generous queers. If you can donate or share, it is greatly appreciated.

UPDATE: Iβm hearing an arrest has been made.

In Ballymena today as it holds its 1st ever pride, but also where some disgusting bigots have dumped slurry on the parade route.
A huge thank you to the businesses who have rallied round to clean up the mess.
The lesson for these bigots, Pride goes on. Weβve dealt with your shit for far too long.
Anyone who has transitioned privately will know that Β£15k, while a life-changing start, certainly won't be the end of the road. Certain gender affirming surgeries alone can cost upwards of that.
If I think I might hit the target (which, honestly, I never thought I would) it might shift up a bit!

Any donations or shares greatly appreciated x
I decided to fundraise now, honestly, in the wake of the FWS judgment. Things are just getting so much worse, and it is getting harder to do public campaigning and advocacy on trans rights and as a trans woman.
It takes a toll and, to be blunt, it would be easier if I wasn't also so dysphoric.
Guess who's being vulnerable online again?
Today is my ten year tranniversary. Ten years since I came out having stolen a dress from my granny and taking a selfie for Instagram. Ten years of being in this beautiful, wonderful, community. And ten years of limited access to care.

This was an extremely fun and interesting discussion to record on my bank holiday Monday.
We got deep into the weeds on some of these issues in a way that I don't often get the opportunity to in the media. Give it a listen if you're not sick of listening to me harping on about thon transgenders
don't know if it's been *completely* debunked. The letter may still exist, even if it isn't official council policy, and that's still worrying. trying to get to the bottom of it!
