For my followers, this is an excerpt from my friend @tiffanyeauthor.bsky.social’s book, read by Miriam (some waffle first) and a bit of commentary.

It’s spicy. Blue. NSFW. Source material is allegedly (🤫) SFW (Smut For a Wank!)

Choo have been warned, but also, you wanna hear it..!

More trans waffle. This kinda bout appearances on #ComingOutDay

For me all appearances are bullshit. When you’re beautiful on the inside it shines through and the other way round too.

I’m entertaining myself no matter what here, but if you’re enjoying it say so.

Well it’s made up so, lol?

Miriam Grace @miriamgrace.bsky.social · 18m

Well you claim we harm women (with no proof and ignoring proof to the contrary) and when we help them we’re creepy.

So how do I convince you I deserve equal protection under the law as a human being.

You didn’t read the articles. Cis women were assaulted and mocked by police and staff, and a trans man was beaten bloody then arrested for doing what you suggest he must do—use the ladies’.

Engage. Don’t just spout.

Ughhh the generations are such a joy to enunciate though

Such mirth and peace in the repetition, and at least for me, bountiful understanding

I love Genesis so much

Fun little paradox. I was first introduced to it by Dr. Jim Al-Khalili in his book Paradox (my wife met him 😍). I was familiar with all the statistics ones, but that one was a new one and the answer is just so fun to think about.

Do you believe anti-trans bathroom laws, laws that bar trans people from using sexed spaces that align with our gender, make cis women safer?

I remember when she cried and said she can’t take it, how much it hurts when people see her face. I took her hand, put it on my ever-present stubble, and told her I understood her.

She unmasked later that day and told me it hasn’t bothered her as much since. Funny that. I love healing fellow women.

You don’t write the book on PCOS. My friend Gina, mid-50s, has suffered countless embarrassments at the hands of men and women for her facial hair and advanced feminine balding due to pcos, on top of 45+ years of menstrual complications and a hell of a pregnancy her doctors said “wasn’t related.”

Miriam Grace @miriamgrace.bsky.social · 1h

I shared an example of a brother and sister (pcos+) who share a single id. Without waxing she does in actual fact have denser facial hair than most cis women, and she sat in my office on numerous occasions crying about how her ex boyfriend would mock features AND PERSONALITY TRAITS he found manly.

I know far too many. Some have facial symptoms, some menstrual symptoms, some significant ovarian issues including cancer. Why? What does not map perfectly to your experience of that horrible genetic condition?

Miriam Grace @miriamgrace.bsky.social · 1h

Hormones utterly change the body. No one does this to have the ability to walk into a room and break existing laws that don’t need prejudicial corollaries that pre-convict people who don’t break them.

And you normalize male cops in female spaces to police this, who assault. See:

You don’t give any justification, just “you don’t have rights, and I purposefully ignore tangible, physical evidence of how this harms both trans and cis women in asserting legislative authority over your personhood.”

You keep doing this. It’s bad faith, it hurts women. Stop hurting all women.

Miriam Grace @miriamgrace.bsky.social · 2h

But I am an other to you and by not listening to people like me you are threatening “the rights of others to safety and privacy.”

You have no demonstrable evidence in court, no violation of any existing code in human law, and we trans people have walked among you for >100 yrs hormonally. Why?

🫶 I seriously enjoyed reading that a bit too much 🫢
