A quick note to all the confused cis people out there. Being trans is not something you do. It is not a behavior. You can't stop being trans by, say, deciding not to transition, or by detransitioning.
Being trans is something you are! It's like "being human" itself. You can't stop being trans no matter what you decide to do or not do. Now, some people do eventually realize that they were never trans to begin with, but that's different.
A small win since it's not a final ruling on the case, but I'll take whatever wins we can get, these days. Appeals court upholds preliminary injunction barring a school district from discriminating against a trans girl.

This is from a few days ago, but I just now saw it. In Los Angeles, the biggest children's hospital announced they are ending care for trans kids next month. 3000 kids are losing their health care.
Trump needs to go and so do his followers.
Oh gods, this article actually made me cry. It's about touch deprivation - literally just not being touched by other people - and how it can negatively impact you. It has a focus on trans people, but really it can apply to anyone. In February I broke a ten year spell of not being touched by another person, and it profoundly affected me over the next week. I need this again.

Gender critical activists like to claim that we don't know the long term effects of HRT. I wish to offer myself as a case study, as this summer marks 30 years of HRT for me. Effects that I have noticed and find worrying include
- extreme happiness
- extensive satisfaction with life
- feelings of living in the right body
- emotional freedom
- boobs
Extreme caution should be exercised by all transphobes to avoid having your opinions changed.

Moriel@mstdn.social - Largest survey of trans people ever: Only 0.36% of trans people detransition because they decided it was the wrong thing for them.
Let that sink in.

I've always said that the #transgender community has a lot of interesting people in it, but this is not what I meant...

Wanda Sykes Urges Protection of Trans Community Amid Political Attacks: “That’s Our Fight” | Yahoo!
But between the laughs, she delivered a pointed and powerful message about the urgent need to protect the transgender community, particularly trans youth, in the face of rising legislative attacks.
“We’re dealing with parents trying to save their kids’ lives,” Sykes said. “And now they’re faced with governments telling doctors they can’t help. That’s wrong. That’s our fight.”
“I believe in love. I believe in what our community stands for,” she added. “So we have to love harder, be louder, and protect each other.”

To conclude her speech, Sykes addressed the LGBTQ+ community as a whole, but also said that protecting the trans segment of the community is “our fight,” since “they are getting their asses kicked right now.”
“We just got to love hard. So that means you gotta be proud, you gotta be loud, we have to protect our trans brothers and sisters,” she said. “That's our next movement.”

Tststs. Diese linksversiffte Gehirnwäsche aus Kitas und Grundschulen ist unerträglich. Da schaut mal kurz mal nicht hin und dann haben die eigenen, konsequent autoritär und an Gehorsam und Strafe orientiert erzogenen Bälger DAS gebaut!!! Was kommt als Nächstes? Die Lehrerin wie einen vollwertigen Menschen behandeln???
