They want you to fight us instead of them, the actual oppressors. There is a loud pro-trans sports voice at USAToday that sees the true oppressors and we love to see it!

They're lying to you about transgender women and girls in sports
The president, politicians and right-wing activists are lying to you about trans women in sports to get what they want.

Agreed with Gillian here.

If you called your Senator (or didn't) to tell them to vote against a trans sports ban, it's important that you also call them and thank them for their vote.

NO Democrat broke on this.

1. The far right is falsely spreading that a new study shows that surgery "doubles depression" for transgender people.

This is an egregious misreading of the study, which does not look at transgender people before and after surgery.

Lets dig in.
Debunked: No, New Study Does Not Show Transgender Surgeries Double Depression
The study, which has been paraded around right-wing media sources, does not evaluate the impact of surgery on transgender depression rates.

Surprise Surprise... bathroom laws target cisgender women more often than trans ones, from a simple numbers game there are just so many more cisgender gender nonconforming people than there are trans people out there.

The Constitution is clear: If you are born in the U.S., you are a U.S. citizen.

The Reagan-appointed judge affirmed what we already knew that President Trump’s executive order was "blatantly unconstitutional.”

building off the thoughts of many others here but:
the fight is going to happen against the fascists. its a long and hard one.

At the same time, and perhaps even more important, is creating--and inhabiting today--a vision of a future that we hope to build. One of love and peace and queer abundance.

The passport page about changing your gender marker is now down.

I'm expecting trans people's passports to be a major battleground of this administration.

I learned tonight that Ra'Lasia Wright, a trans woman in Minneapolis, was murdered on Dec 1.
Details are light, and I'm catching up on the story.
But once again, the burden of violence falls hardest on black trans women.
Ra'Lasia deserved a whole life.
Rest in Peace.
Phone location tracking led family to body of 25-year-old murder victim near Powderhorn Park
Friends say Ra'Lasia Wright was well-known in the Minneapolis club scene and had no connection to the neighborhood where her body was found.
