Welcome to #TransTuesday!
A really important thing I've discovered on my transition journey is that we have to LET GO of our preconceived notions of ourselves, or who we thought we were, if we ever want to get to the truth.
Because it's the only way to discover who we really are.

Here comes THE CONSTANT FIGHT (of existing while trans).

You don't get to just call yourself a trans ally without action to back it up. Ally is a verb, and if you're not willing to do even the easiest, smallest thing to help trans people, you are not our ally.

Welcome to #TransTuesday!
There are some cis folks who like to think of themselves as allies so they can feel like a good person, but won't do a single easy thing to actually help
Let's talk about what happens when being an "ally" is not backed up with ACTION and becomes PERFORMATIVE ALLYSHIP

⚠️new episode!⚠️ #TransTuesday
In a large majority of the United States, a violent cis person can attack a trans person, and a valid legal defense in court is "TRANS PANIC?"
We discuss what it is, why it's a nightmare, and what we can do about it.
Riley Silverman joins us to discuss!
Welcome to #TransTuesday!
Let me tell you about TRANS PANIC
It basically goes, "I didn't know she was trans and I panicked and assaulted her!"
And the vast majority of our country has said yes, this is a valid legal defense in court.
It's HORRID.

It may (not) surprise you to learn it's from the exact same people responsible for astroturfing the entire anti-trans movement
