New research shows trans kids on hormone treatment have less suicide ideation
A new report has shown that transgender youth who are on hormone treatment have a reduced level of suicide ideation.
The research builds upon earlier work, but this time examined a much larger cohort.

When the hatred of the TERFs is going to explode in their own faces: the United Kingdom could begin to restrict the entry of trans people to women's locker rooms and toilets, "being restricted based on their appearance"... a few TERFs come to mind that would not pass the screen.

When I was hate crimed in July and had to flee to my car and lock the door from the violent, frothing man on the petrol forecourt (Police investigation at Clouseau levels) - It was not social media or a lack of mindfulness driving the hate. It was Transphobia; the same sort that Labour have embraced

Brianna Ghey was not murdered in cold blood by a phone. She was murdered in cold blood with knives by two 15-year-old kids who grew up in the toxic hate-filled atmosphere of British society, hatred fed by the corporate media and government far more than social media.
Most of us have pathologically useless parents who don't care to learn about protecting us properly, but this dogshit really takes the cake.
