Being the first person to transition at my workplace mostly just means everyone very carefully never refers to me with any pronouns at all rather than use the right ones -- which I guess is gravy compared to some places but god does it suck in client meetings.

Good article. We have reported about "Gender Exploratory Therapy" at EITM for years now - it's a subversive practice akin to "crisis pregnancy centers" that seeks to delay transition until the person gives up on being trans - they will NEVER let the trans teen transition.
Conversion therapy is quietly rebranding — and targeting trans youths
As political attacks on gender-affirming care escalate, parents and experts fear a resurgence of discredited “therapies” that seek to change transgender children’s identities.

I’m pleased to announce that following our reporting, multiple people have reported that a formal inquiry is being made into SEGM’s accreditation, and that the CME courses are at least temporarily pulled down.
1. Washington State University has credentialed an anti-trans, conversion therapy org SEGM to teach CMEs to medical providers.

The panel is filled with the most vitriolic of anti-trans activists.

Unsuspecting providers may be taught harmful practices.

1. A day after the Michigan church shooting, Republicans are silent after learning the shooter was a MAGA extremist.

No investigations of Trump supporters as terrorists. No national conversations about the rights of cisgender men.

The silence is deafening.

1. The Trump administration has filed an emergency motion with the Supreme Court to reinstate its transgender passport restrictions.

The filing in the much-criticized shadow docket could cast trans travelers into chaos, with a decision likely soon.

A story no one is talking about - last week's high school shooting in Denver.

16-year-old white boy radicalized online and promoting white supremacist and anti-Semitic conspiracies, inspired by - and a fan of - terrorists who promoted replacement theory.

Last week, a white racist man was killed in front of his white racist ilk by a white man raised in a white racist family.

Now, Black, Latine, queer, trans, disabled, and migrant people are being doxxed, harassed, threatened, and fired.

Never doubt that this is a white supremacist country again.

Anyone find it funny how when the UK releases the Cass review to ban trans care, we get everything ranging from New York Times push notifs to op-eds in every major US paper...

But when Germany, Switzerland, and Austria release pro-trans youth care guidelines, not a single article anywhere but mine?
1. Major news in transgender care.

Germany, Switzerland, and Austria have just released their trans youth care guidelines.

They strongly recommend trans youth care and slam the
Cass Review in England.

Europe is not "pulling back" on trans care.
