So deeply absurd and cowardly of UPenn. Riley Gaines literally tied for 5th place. Could not imagine making my career out of a dream to win 5th place without tying for it

The NYT's anti-trans fear mongering was cited in a Supreme Court briefing that stripped away the rights of trans kids. They need to be fully blacklisted by queer people and their allies. Don't work for them. Don't use them for book press. Don't speak with them for stories. They made their bed.

This is your ongoing reminder that anti-migrant (β€œillegals”) and anti-trans politics (β€œgender ideology”) are current anchors of several authoritarian governments. People who tolerate, even selectively, such politics are facilitating the rise of fascism. This is why solidarity is key to oppose this.

Largest Trans Survey Ever: Top Reason Trans People Stop Transitioning Is Transphobia β€œIn almost every single case, the reason was anti-trans discrimination in the form of pressure to β€˜detransition’ from one’s family, friends, or community.”

1. The US Transgender Survey has finally been released, and the results are stunning.

- <1% of people are less satisfied after HRT.
- The most common reason for detransition, pausing transition, or stopping transition is transphobia.

The latest from S. Baum.

I think it’s important to notice why so many Americans believe the criminal group exists: yes the media but also two political parties that kept talking about this criminal imaginary. Two. That appeal to Liz Cheney moderates shit is damaging.

Just out! Our peer-reviewed critique of the Cass Review has been published by BMC Medical Research Methodology. Please read and share. We show that the Cass Review is fatally flawed and should not be the basis for policy or practice in transgender healthcare.

This is what I mean when I say transphobes don't oppose "males" in "women's spaces"--they oppose trans women specifically and hope that disgust of us will help police how all women look and behave

If you open the anti-trans HHS report’s appendix in NotePad, you’ll see that it was compiled by Alex Byrne.

The appendix is a rigorous, scientific overview of systematic reviews.

Alex Byrne is an MIT philosophy professor with no apparent background in science, let alone expertise in it.

1. The UK has announced autism tests for all transgender youth. In the United States, RFK Jr. is pushing autism registries. Fearmongering is spreading about autistic trans people.
