"When cis people try to understand what it is to be trans, I think they often try to imagine what it would feel like to want to be 'the opposite sex'. What they should be trying to imagine, instead, is how it would feel to wake up and find that the whole world insists they *are* the opposite sex. That would be a much closer scenario to how it feels to be trans." Sage

For #lgbtq married couples, it's time to take steps to protect your marriage in case same-sex marriage is officially dissolved in the coming years. My husband and I did this when Roe V Wade was overturned, so I hope this is helpful. 👇

35% of #bisexual men in a relationship *with another man* have never told that partner about their bisexuality. And only the minority of us are very or fairly open about our #bisexuality to our male partners. That's from ILGA Europe. The norm is for us bi #men to be quiet about our bisexuality, even in same-gender relationships. #Gay men, you can think about that one during #BiVisibilityDay.

Imane Khelif is a cis woman, she has experienced 9 losses against other women in her career, including the 2020 Olympics where she lost against Irish participant Kellie Harrington. Yet, the usual transphobes are currently unleashing a vile attack against her, misgendering her, accusing her of being a man competing unfairly and having some sort of advantage against her fellow athletes, all because she doesn't fit their incredibly limited norm of how a woman should look.

Suddenly, people who never cared or know much about the sport are very interested in women's boxing, and found a scapegoat in her in order to spread their disinformation. Khelif is currently receiving more vitriol than convicted child rapist Steven van de Velde who was still allowed to compete.

This is basically yet another reminder that it was never about genuinely caring for the safety of women. Transphobia is dangerous for everyone, *including* us cis women, and that the links between TERF ideology and white supremacy are very real. Feminism isn't feminism if it's not intersectional.

Transphobic Backlash To Imane Khelif Doesn't Help Women

^Junkee

Lin Yu-ting originally got into boxing wanting to protect her mother from domestic violence, which clearly shows that she has experienced domestic abuse first hand.

Imane Khelif grew up in poverty, she started boxing when she became good at dodging the physical attacks of boys in her village, traveled 10km to train, and had to work to pay for her own bus fare, as her father didn't approve of boxing for girls. An experience that a lot of girls who grew up having so-called "tomboy" interests are probably familiar with. I know I am. She has recently become a UNICEF ambassador, aiming to inspire girls everywhere to chase their dreams. (unicef.org/algeria/en/stories/…)

Not that the transphobia and clear racist undertones of attacking these two women, despite the fact that they are both cis, aren't horrible enough, but there's something particularly sinister and cruel in the fact that the people who decided to paint them as villains and keep circulating disinformation about both, claim to act in the name of ending violence against women and protecting women's rights.

Ireland’s first Gaeltacht for LGBTQ+ adults launches this summer • GCN

Taking place this August, the week-long Gaeltacht has been designed for all levels of LGBTQ+ learners of Irish.

^{Alice Linehan (GCN)}

Welcome to #TransTuesday!

This week we discuss something super important for a lot of trans folks, and yet it so very often goes south and impacts us in so many ways:

CIS SPOUSAL AND PARTNER SUPPORT DURING TRANSITION.

Let's talk about what it looks like, and why it's so important... and what happens when we don't get it.

CIS FRIENDS I NEED YOU TO SHARE THIS WITH *YOUR* CIS FRIENDS.

Puberty blockers ban

As many of you may already be aware, as one of their last acts in power, the government has placed restrictions on new prescriptions (NHS or private) of puberty blockers for trans people under 18.

gov.uk/government/news/new-res…

The affected medications are ones that contain:

• buserelin
• gonadorelin
• goserelin
• leuprorelin acetate
• nafarelin
• triptorelin

It should be noted that that this is not a complete list of such medications, commonly referred to as gonadotropin-releasing hormone agonists.

• Gonadotropin-releasing hormone agonists
• Available forms

Additionally, there are similar drugs referred to as gonadotropin-releasing hormone antagonists. These have the same outcomes and low risk profiles of the banned medications, but have notably not been included in the ban.

• Gonadotropin-releasing hormone antagonists
• Available forms

Alternatives to puberty blockers

Whilst puberty blockers are considered the gold standard:

• They were mainly offered in place of gender-affirming hormone therapy in order to delay the medical transition of trans kids, in the hopes that they could be "persuaded" that they're not actually trans (i.e., conversion therapy).
• Other alternatives to these do exist and are commonly available.

Anti-androgens

One notable alternative for trans fem kids is bicalutamide. It's not a perfect drug, as it has a rare chance of causing liver issues, so needs regular monitoring, but it can stop masculinisation by blocking androgen receptors in the body. It also has comparatively few common side effects vs other medications like spironolactone or cyproterone acetate, which are less ideal anti-androgens.

Anti-oestrogens

There are alternative anti-oestrogens, but they typically have a lot of side effects and risks. As a rule, most don't come highly recommended.

Monotherapy

It's very notable that the ban does not ban any oestradiol (aka estradiol; estrogen) or testosterone prescriptions.

This means that there is nothing to stop supportive parents from helping their trans kids to get a private prescription for oestradiol or testosterone.

Furthermore, due to the way human bodies work, if you maintain a high-enough trough (lowest) level of either oestradiol or testosterone, the body will basically tell the gonads to stop producing that hormone.

For trans fems, monotherapy typically requires maintaining an oestradiol trough of around 750 pmol/L. It varies from person to person, so some folks might need as little as 350 pmol/L.

You'll know if their oestradiol trough is sufficient if their testosterone level is 2.4 nmol/L or lower, though up to 3 nmol/L is still considered within the high-end of female range.

For trans mascs, a testosterone trough of around 10-12 nmol/L is generally considered the aim when using prescription testosterone medications like Nebido or Sustanon, with a peak around 25-30 nmol/L.

You'll typically know if their testosterone trough is sufficient if their oestradiol level is under 150 pmol/L, though some folks may be up to around 180 pmol/L.

Monotherapy completely avoids the need for a puberty blocker, an anti-androgen, or an anti-oestrogen.

It also has the delightful side-effect of making your trans kid happy to be starting the puberty that they want to go through sooner, thus alleviating their feelings of gender dysphoria and allowing them to enjoy their lives, rather than continuing to wait on non-existent NHS healthcare.

For trans fems, monotherapy is most easily achieved by a daily high-dose of oestradiol in the form of oestrogel (oestrogen gel) applied to a high-absorption area, but could in theory be achieved by sufficient patches applied twice weekly. Injections and implants are sadly not available on prescription.

For trans mascs, monotherapy can be achieved by daily application of testosterone gel or cream, but is more easily achieved by testosterone injections (Nebido or Sustanon).

Blood tests

These can be done privately, completely avoiding the need for the NHS.

You can find more information here:

• genderkit.org.uk/resources/blo…
• transactual.org.uk/medical-tra…

Where can we find more information about gender-affirming care by experts who actually want to help trans kids?

Although far from perfect, arguably the best sources currently are:

• WPATH Standards Of Care 8
• UCSF guidelines for gender-affirming care

What if I'm still confused about all this?

Ask for help. We're all in this together. Some of us know a lot about how broken trans healthcare is on the NHS right now, not just for trans kids but for trans adults too.

The key thing to remember is that you are never alone. All you have to do is reach out and ask for help ​

Happy Trans Day of Visibility everyone. I spent over 6 months writing and rewriting this article that I just published. Most of that time was spent debating whether or not to publish it.

I'm finally coming out; I'm trans. I hope this article helps.

Coming Out as Trans

I am publicly announcing that I am transgender. I have experienced gender dysphoria for almost ten years, but I have found a label that I feel comfortable with now.
