Still think about my Latin professor who 5 weeks into the semester realized that the class didn’t know English grammar well enough for him to be able to explain Latin, so the class suddenly became a simultaneous English grammar & Latin class

There's a lot of angst around the fact that many trans people don't have the ability to move.

From the start my view has simply been that I'd rather see as many of us make it as possible. That means I want to see as many of us make it to safety as possible.
This is a really good New Republic article about trans people leaving the country. Do some research about getting visas. Start now. It is harder and slower than you think, and there are no opportunities for asylum right now. It also is entirely doable.

And if closeted being forced out.

Sadly there's still lots of people closeted in this world.

AND THERE IS NOTHING WRONG WITH THIS KINK, I wouldn't work in it if there was.

But when Glinner involves other people without consent, that's wrong. When he harms other people that's wrong. When...

And people will be like AHA THAT IS A TRANS KINK!

No.

I've worked with MANY trans clients. Being trans is NOT a kink. Some trans people are ALSO into kink and their kinks may involve aspects of self, as it would for a cis or a het.

Nope. It's a humiliation kink with gotcha centering.

I have literally done this scene in a million different ways.

Find the boy pretending to be a girl, and then punish them, usually in ways involving forced feminization by role (they must become a maid at our tea party, a bimbo secretary at our high powered biz, or sexually service all the males)

This is 100% a sexual kink.

Not the point of the post but looking at that photo I wonder how "discrimination based on looks" is going to go for these women...
Prior to October, the only use of "biological male who identifies as a woman" was in quotations from genitally-obsessed bigots.

Here's one where they slip it in a sentence.

How Republicans commemorated Thanksgiving in 1869--with a multi-racial/multi-ethnic gathering of people at a table with a centerpiece celebrating universal suffrage and self-government, and with an engraving of Castle Garden, the pre-Ellis Island point of disembarkation for immigrants.
