It seems contradictory because we come with the assumption that trans bodies are not malformed and that social transition works and shit like chromosomes doesn't truly matter. They come with the assumption that we are a circus show and everyone's just pretending to accept it

Can any transfem journalist contact me? I would like to share my story and hopefully prevent more kids from being abused. I've never seen anyone talking about this kind of grooming.

Getting to care for children and help them find their place in the world and learn the things they need to learn to do that is an extraordinary privilege, an absolutely life changing gift. That it comes with the power to casually destroy that person and be praised for it....

India's is also hilariously the most progressive ruling here, can my nation please give me an uncomplicated win for once in my fucking life I beg

There's your test case for "trans lib without feminism" for anyone curious. It kind of sucks.

When this all ends, the Trans 'debate' will have been started, continued and ended by cis people.

It is the Cis Debate.

Something the Skrmetti decision drives home: "Puberty blockers" should be abandoned as a goal; the goal should be HRT for any minor that wants it; puberty blockers should be a tool for minors who choose themselves they need more time to decide and *nothing else*.

Compromising achieved nothing, here

it's perfectly legal and unquestioned for cis minors to get irreversible cosmetic surgeries btw

i have so many things wrong with me lmao

this is a good time to remember that conservatives only ever want to be in more left leaning spaces to get reactions out of people, if enough people block them they’ll get bored and leave

lie to your endo. get what you can from them, get what you need where you must.

talk to girls who do. become a girl others can talk to as well.

survive, please.

fuck all of you for abandoning trans kids.

"i turned out fine" fuck you
"its a distraction" fuck you
"its not a death sentence" FUCK YOU

I transitioned at 29. I got there in the end. I didn't go through any legal means. I managed.

Shouldn't have had to, though.

We can tell each other that we'll take care of each other and pull through and also note that zealots and fanatics are inflicting untold suffering on us for no reason.

Transphobia is never ok. Even against problematic transgender women.

This goes for cis and trans people.

I promise that pedaling transphobia will not make things better for the trans people in your life you care about.

Transsexual is still my favorite word for what I am—other than girl/woman, ofc.

I know we all know this but it’s always so important to remember that transphobes who claim to fight for women’s equality generally proceed from the belief that women are inferior to men across the board

they wouldn’t treat trans women like they had cheat codes if they respected cis women’s skills!

The Supreme fucking Court of the United States just said it's perfectly okay to torture kids if they're trans.

academics: we utilize tenure protections and academic freedom to bravely pursue the truth despite the pressure from the powerful to tell lies!

also academics: every negative stereotype you believe about that powerless group of marginalized disgusting freaks youve always hated is empirically correct
