@MsDropbear42 ...aaaaaand so now i have abandoned #W1A, in S3 E1. In the last ep of S2 they began focusing their heavy-handed OTT mockery on inclusivity, so ofc they decided to use trans peeps for target practice [specifically transvestites vs transsexuals, grrrrrrrrrr]. In that prior ep they were still sufficiently vague as to be able to claim plausible deniability, so i persisted, albeit with dark foreboding. However in S3 E1 they dropped any pretence of subtlety & just went for it, via a big boofy supposed crossdresser, with that as The Joke.

Ugh. 🤢🤮

Any show, author, organisation et al that chooses to use trans peeps as a comedic &/or criminal device, makes an enemy of me evermore.

Fuck off, shit-head creators of W1A !!! 😡🖕

This has made me weep a bit... thank goodness... thank you, 10K non-TERF cis-women!!! 🤗 💜

Published on Monday (26 May) Not in Our Name has already attracted signatures from more than 9,600 cis women who support the message that all women should be “united by a shared truth” that “cisgender men who abuse their power are the real threat”.

The petition goes on to say: “Throughout our lives, we have endured harassment, discrimination, violence and abuse in countless forms: from childhood catcalls to workplaces discrimination, from domestic violence to sexual assault, from being silenced in boardrooms to be being blamed for crimes committed against us.

“We know intimately what the real threat to women looks like.”

and

“Enough scapegoating of trans women by politicians who refuse to confront male violence,” the petition demanded. “Enough media sensationalism that profits from hatred while women of all backgrounds suffer real harm. Enough false feminism that abandons the most-vulnerable women, leaving all women at greater risk.

“We will speak for ourselves. We stand with our trans siblings. We demand better.”

and

“The real threat to women has never been trans women seeking to live their lives with dignity. The real threat remains what it has always been: a culture that enables male violence and blames everyone except the men who perpetrate it.”

🤗 💜💯✅👍

Hey folks  

As you're almost-certainly already aware, access to GAHT is increasingly being restricted, being outright banned, or otherwise unavailableb to many trans+ people under 18 in many places across the world 😔

For example, the UK had already banned new prescriptions of GnRH agonists (a type of puberty blocker) for any trans+ person under 18, and is now genuinely considering banning all private GAHT prescriptions too 🤬

GAHT is literally lifesaving medication for many trans+ people 

Without it, many trans+ people under 18 will struggle even more with mental health, and many will not make it to adulthood 😭

If you are a trans+ person under 18, or are a supportive family member or friend of someone who is, please start to make contingency plans now for the worst-case scenarios 🥺

We highly recommend bookmarking the below website and making copies of all relevant info and links in case it gets taken down:

If you're 18+ or soon will be, please also do the same for these:

We all need to prepare now, before it's too late 🥺😞

Enough lives have already been lost. We can't save everyone, but we need to try to save as many as we can ✊

Boosts very much appreciated

if you have read up or are knowledgeable about the possible correlation between #T1D and #GenderDysphoria or the higher-than-typical prevalence of T1Ds identifying as #transgender, or the possible link between #A1C and #GAHT, or perhaps experience with #insulin resistance related to #GAHT / #HRT, would you like to chat? i have so so many questions.

i once joked to my therapist that as a #T1D i shouldn't have been surprised to realize i was #transgender. #insulin is a hormone, after all, so i've been having #HRT since age 3. but still a surprise to encounter this today: "Five to Ten Times Higher Prevalence of Gender Dysphoria in Kids With T1D" https://www.medscape.com/viewarticle/949041 only 2 studies totaling >2000 participants, so not nothing. and... this feels right to me. like, of course. my endocrine system is atypical and it makes me weird.

Essere transgender non è una malattia.
La disforia di genere non è una psicosi.
Eppure c’è ancora chi le paragona alla schizofrenia.

In questo articolo spiego, con parole semplici e rispetto, perché questa idea è sbagliata e pericolosa.

Perché capire non è un optional. È una responsabilità.

Being transgender is not a disease.
Gender dysphoria is not a psychosis.
And yet, some still compare it to schizophrenia.

In this article, I explain — in simple and respectful terms — why this idea is not only wrong, but dangerous.

Understanding is not optional. It’s a responsibility.

When most cisgender people hear about #transgender people, they hear words. Those words create an image in their mind. The author of those words controls the image.
That’s when it can get ugly.

Quiet Rage and Silent Pain: The unseen fury of gender dysphoria

According to the popular press, there are an estimated 1.2 million transgender people in the United States, a very small group for a country with 340 million people. For all of the talk about…
