Hi, I’m a father writing about raising a trans daughter.
I share lived experience and reflections on her life and, what supportive parenting actually looks like.
I’m here to challenge misinformation, and centre trans kids as real people, with real feelings, who deserve as many rights as any other.

Reading how the UK Girl Guides has treated a 6 year old child is beyond heartbreaking. This story should be published everywhere except we know the mainstream news would never dare.

Trans people need to thrive, not just survive. We must fight to raise youth to be inclusive and welcoming to every person, trans or not.
Our trans kids (and adults) deserve a place in this world, a place where they don't have to fight for a childhood or adulthood that they should already have 🌈❤️

I’ve published a new article reflecting on parenting a trans child.
It’s about unlearning “responsible parenting” scripts, and why belief in your child matters more than perfect understanding.
If you’re a parent, carer, or ally, you might find this helpful:

The loudest voices in society right now aren’t always the kindest — especially when it comes to transgender people.
But loud doesn’t mean “right,” and it certainly doesn’t mean “most people.”

“When society tries to police and exclude trans girls, it ends up policing all girls.
Because transmisogyny does not just say, “Trans girls aren’t real girls.” It also says, “There is only one correct way to be a girl.””
