One of the most beautiful aspects of being trans is how by just living our lives and being ourselves we give others the strength and courage to do so themselves.
I'm very fortunate that I've been able to be that for others in my life, and we are all better for having shared this world with you.

When I first started my own transition over a decade ago, you were one of what was then a small handful of possibility models that I saw and knew that this life was not just possible, but was capable of finding happiness and success - and all while excelling in a field where my own passions lied.

The Times article they link to suggests that the IOC doctor's review will not be subjected to peer-review nor does it appear to be planned for public release, but an unidentified source says, "It was a very scientific" so... ya know... case closed?

Oh my gosh same!!

What an absolutely amazing, apt callback to the Clerks cartoon

Ryan Murphy shoving Christine Jorgensen in this fucking thing so she can tell Ed Gein he's autogynephellic, a debunked theory popular in conversion therapy circles, is frankly fucking bizarre and disgusting.

This is not new to fascist movements that get a taste of power. The politics of violence and grievance cannot actually solve the problems that plague our lives so they go into crisis, cry harder, get more violent, look for scapegoats... and stage a UFC match at the White House I guess.

If you're trans, you're trans. Live your life and get the most out of it. It's going to be hard no matter what. There's no reason to be proactive about limiting yourself or making it harder. Seize your own happiness, tranny! Nobody else is going to seize it for you!
