#Transgendered people don’t owe you passability. If you “need” to not know someone is trans in order to treat them as a human worthy of respect, your “respect” is just play-acting regardless of who you show it to. I say this with kindness: look inward, do better.
Day 22 of my #PrideMonth Icons #DigitalArt pieces is the sadly forgotten #Transgendered #Ventriloquist and #Magician #TerriRogers with her #Puppet #ShortyHarris Considering the stigma with Trans issues today its amazing how she was able to have a career in the 60's and 70's
This is a myth. Meant to tie up a phone line meant for #Canadian #Transgendered people and not equipped to handle the kind of volume that a population as big as America's people would put on that line endangering #Canada ’s #Trans community Guess who's DOUBTLESSLY behind it... #Save&Share

Had to share this again. The "president" of the United States actually addressed the nation and the world and claimed 8 million tax dollars were used to make mice #transgendered. You could've had #HarrisWalz.

For the record I think #cisgendered #actors can play #transgendered characters and vice versa. Do I prefer trans people playing trans parts? Depends on the #actor. We #queer people understand and appreciate the value of #illusion better than most. Making a #stink on #socialmedia , boxing us all in and creating ridiculous hoops to jump through to make art isn't #activism. Fuck the #Internet for screwing #nuance. Make #art not #clickbait. Cool your jets and save your rage for the real enemy.

"Our current phony freakout over the #transgendered is the same play Republicans have run for decades, with different targets. Single out someone who is an “other” under a #whitesupremacist mythology. Tell a story about the danger they collectively pose, or the unearned privileges they’ve stolen. Bully Democrats into betraying them. Then count the electoral benefits of Democrats’ weakened coalition while still slandering them by association." Read the rest here:

Democrats Are Misunderstanding the Trans Rights Trap

The controversy stirring in Democratic circles over transgender rights is a classic framing trap. Republicans have manufactured this “issue.” Democrats are about to fall for it, again.

Now it seems Dump wants to ban #transgendered persons from the #military. Powerful, strong amd mighty move it is not. I am embarrassed for his supporters. We are a nation of undignified dupes. When they get what's coming to them they won't even realize it. Meanwhile the planet burns...

Sigh. Yet another article predicated on an implicit presumption that depressed people are depressed because of reasons entirely internal to them, invisible to onlookers. Many are, ofc, & for them i daresay info like this might be applicable & helpful. When so, that's lovely.

Otoh some peeps are depressed, clinically depressed, for internal reasons that are also manifested externally, visible plainly to onlookers. Say, for instance, to pluck some wild example outta thin air, #transwomen who are not merely #transgendered in the ultra-broad sense it has come to denote these days, but explicitly [using the nowadays unpopular term frowned on by the kool kids] #transsexual, for whom social & legal #transition is insufficient, but who also desperately need surgical transition? What if such essential goal is denied them for economic or health [or, despicably in many jurisdictions nowadays, political] reasons? Or, what about #PostOp #Transwomen whose outcome failed? I assure you that no amount of vigorous walking, or determined downward-dogging has even a partial benefit for these morbidly depressed peeps.
