Opinions are my own.
As trans hate grows, we will see trans people who have been brainwashed by the right become more desperate for absolution. I fear this may drive them to act in ways that they know will make all trans people look bad. Namely, they will act out, cause scenes, harm themselves, and commit crimes.

At some point, you start believing that trans people are evil because you don't want to accept that the society that you still participate in could so easily kill an innocent group of people. You rationalize for your own sanity.

1. Terrible news for trans people in Idaho.

The state's House just passed one of the first private business bathroom bans in the United States.

It allows you to sue any private business that lets trans people pee if you think they're in the wrong bathroom.

The world's richest man is broadcasting eliminationist rhetoric about a tiny, vulnerable minority, and virtually no one is going to treat it as a scandal. It's just normal now.

Public comment on Dr Oz's proposed rules to ban gender-affirming care for youth closes 2/17

One rule bans hospital-based care, the other eliminates Medicaid/CHIP coverage

Together they'd make care virtually unavailable nationwide, including in shield law states

When you’re a UK trans woman, you roll invisible dice every day before work. All sixes, and a coworker with billionaire money will take your employer to court over you, you will be on the news, and when you leave the country, men with abuse allegations against them will call it a victory for women.

“Trying to live under the radar”

My transness isn’t something I should need to hide. I refuse to feel shame for something innate, usual and human.

Trans+ people living proudly as themselves is not what is causing our persecution.
On one side, you have trans people asking to be left alone and maintain our access to health care. On the other, a bunch of people who believe we shouldn't exist. But Cass believes both sides are the same.

This whole interview is atrocious.

there is an employment crisis among trans women and there always has been, but good luck getting people to see it
Still living this life after almost 8 months. A professional I know who works almost exclusively with trans people said almost all of them are unemployed.

Hey, friends, the deadline on this opportunity to #SupportTransFolks is NEXT MONDAY.

If you haven't already commented, do so this weekend if at all possible.

@matthewcort.land's guide, linked below, will likely be a HUGE help... it's an especially good time to prioritize fighting for trans folks!
CTA Defend Trans Kids: If you're a clinician, a parent, a trans adult, or just someone who cares, I wrote a guide on how to submit effective comments opposing the federal ban on gender-affirming care for minors.

Deadline 2/17/26

I am one of the most published academics on the childhood social transition, with 5 peer reviewed articles that relate to the topic.

There is so much evidence of benefit of social transition.

There is no evidence of harm. Not one jot.

This will literally kill trans kids. No exaggeration.

Trans folk and allies, flood this. It won’t stop them doing irreparable damage to trans kids in schools but in twenty years when this gets studied we’ll be able to say they knew the consequences and how poorly received it was.

This might sound like hyperbole.

It is not.

They took a decision they were warned would cause trans kids to die. Trans kids died. They covered that up and attacked those trying to expose their cover up.

They deserve to go to prison and nobody will ever be held accountable.

It is the UK way.
Wes Streeting and Louis Appleby should go to prison over this. It's a massive scandal and they covered it up. They knew what they were doing restricting access to care and they did it anyways because of politics.

Trans people were the proving grounds to normalize the made up term "biological sex"to roll back decades of progress on gender equality. When you get bioessentialist language, suddenly everything from gender roles to marriage becomes an argument about "biology."

The nazis raided and burned the first gender clinic. The Reagan revolution closed down most of the gender clinics in the US and left coverage uninsurable for decades. We've been here before. We'll get through just as we always have. With strength and resilience in community. They can't eradicate us.
