One of our aims is to inform the trans community of their healthcare alternatives, following the therapeutic education idea that people need to ๐ซ๐ž๐š๐ฉ๐ฉ๐ซ๐จ๐ฉ๐ซ๐ข๐š๐ญ๐ž ๐ญ๐ก๐ž ๐ฆ๐ž๐š๐ง๐ฌ ๐จ๐Ÿ ๐ญ๐ก๐ž๐ข๐ซ ๐ก๐ž๐š๐ฅ๐ญ๐ก๐œ๐š๐ซ๐ž.โฃ

We believe that precise and well-sourced knowledge on all possible treatments is key to ๐ฌ๐ž๐ข๐ณ๐ž ๐›๐š๐œ๐ค ๐ญ๐ก๐ž ๐ฆ๐ž๐š๐ง๐ฌ ๐จ๐Ÿ ๐จ๐ฎ๐ซ ๐ฆ๐ž๐๐ข๐œ๐š๐ฅ ๐ญ๐ซ๐š๐ง๐ฌ๐ข๐ญ๐ข๐จ๐ง, and to reduce harm.โฃ
โฃ
Not only do we defend bodily autonomy, but we also want to push this notion away from its liberal connotation and bring it back towards the self-organization of our transitions.โฃ
โฃ
We also believe that "harm reduction" is not only about the harms related to a practice (medicating...), but the ๐ฌ๐จ๐œ๐ข๐š๐ฅ ๐ก๐š๐ซ๐ฆ๐ฌ ๐ญ๐ก๐š๐ญ ๐Ÿ๐š๐ฅ๐ฅ ๐จ๐ง ๐ฎ๐ฌ ๐ฃ๐ฎ๐ฌ๐ญ ๐›๐ž๐œ๐š๐ฎ๐ฌ๐ž ๐ฐ๐ž ๐š๐ซ๐ž ๐ญ๐ซ๐š๐ง๐ฌ.

@lannan this is an ongoing concern for me in the community I run and I just...don't know how to resolve it. I *want* it to include people across the breadth of the trans experience, but it's so overwhelmingly trans femme and sapphic...

Alright #trans folks of #queer mastodon. A Q:

How do you make trans/queer spaces friendlier to mascs?

There's something of a pattern with queer spaces nowadays in that they sometimes tend to be overwhelmingly queer/sapphic femme/MTF, and masc/FTM people get unintentionally marginalized by being left out of memes, friendly flirting, and some self esteem boosts. I'm noticing this in my own community and looking for ways to gently counteract it. Ideas?
