Yesterday afternoon I went to a "Picnic of #pride and resistance" with the youngest and Snowy, our dog. It was a lovely afternoon.

At one point a young child came and stroked Snowy. The woman with him remarked that she was one of his two mums, and it was great to see the (#trans and #NonBinary) flags on display.


For those who have not looked into the complexity of biological sex, here is an illustration from Scientific American that presents the main points.

You might have seen a post being shared around saying Canada has opened up its suicide hotline to American citizens with Trump threatening a shutdown of ours in the US.

The number it links to is the Trans Helpline. This is likely a right wing attempt to try to flood and overwhelm the hotline and hurt trans people.

Please be careful and check on this before you share them. And if you see an account for a Jeras Ikehorn which seems to be bridged here from Bluesky, know this is the second time in several weeks they have blatantly shared misinformation that harms trans people.

I grew-up as a Christian Pastor’s Kid which surely was a struggle for me. Today I got this text from my dad about him performing his first ever same-sex marriage in his career at the age of 67 years old.

He’s been a minister in the United Methodist Church for over 30 years and I can assure you, this was one of the highlights of his entire 30+ years ministering.

He said, “It was one of the most meaningful things I’ve done.”

As some may know, I have a country programme on transradiouk.com. What you may not know is that that station has a football team: TRUK United. A documentary has just been released called "We'll Go Down in History" watch at youtu.be/WUmrllKw3Xs as one of the Five Films for Freedom. My song "TRUK United 2022" is heard near the end of the film. It is available on my album "Earworms at open.spotify.com/album/3tN0wDt… #transgender #trans #LGBTQ #LGBTQIA

Again, to remind folks, Judge Lamberth was appointed by Reagan. He is a conservative's conservative.

‪Chris Geidner:

NEWS: Judge Lamberth, who has been hearing a challenge over #trans individuals in prison facing transfers due to Trump’s anti-trans orders (and has granted relief to those individuals), today granted similar relief to trans women *already* moved to male facilities. He orders them moved back. #LGBTQ




Hello Fedifolks, I have a #trans question

@SallyChamness and I have a child (preteen, born female) that is identifying they/them/he/him for the past year

They are exploring top surgery when they are older but puberty is hitting them earlier than their peers.

So they are wearing sports bras for comfort and to feel more comfortable with who they are. But they want a binder.

For their age, is there any considerations we should have for physical development when getting one (rib growth, etc)?


Who does it hurt if a person

... asks to be called a different name?
... likes to wear different clothes?
... takes steps to feel more comfortable in their own skin?

Who does it hurt? No one.

Trans rights are human rights & the culture war is a distraction.

The holidays are often a really tough time for queer, and especially #trans, folks. We fight for family and somehow it always seems to turn into us getting hurt more and more.

This holiday on #StainedGlassWoman, we're holding the Black Sheep close, and talking about the reasons families are dysfunctional.

And no, it's not your fault. It was never your fault.

"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

Hey all! Our son's boyfriend is working on a project to develop a compendium of Transmasc Comfort Characters from books, movies, TV, and video games.

He'd love it if you'd fill out this survey with your favorite characters! Whether their transmasc status is canon or not - if that character comforts you, please include them.

Please BOOST! :)

Edit: Fixed - you can now submit multiple characters!

Speaking of #MyAdoredDaughter this morning... I don't know if I ever posted this photo.

This is ... my daughter? This is how she looks like, exactly - a beautiful, young person with long legs, and wonderful hair. And she keeps telling me "OMG, we look so alike, we could be twins..."

#Trans #Enby #NonBinary #TransJoy #EnbyJoy #NonBinaryJoy #Selfie

...

... but no, this is not a photo of her, this is a selfie of me reflected in a window. When I saw myself reflected in that window, I had to take a selfie and send it to her and she was absolutely amazed at how similar we look now, really, like twins, everything, the form, hair, posture, arms, legs, ... only her face is slightly different (and way younger, obviously 🥰


MY LATEST ESSAY: "Why Does 'Transvestigation' Happen?
On Gendering, Ungendering, and (Mis)Perceiving Trans People." In this long-read, I unpack the phenomenon of so-called #transvestigation, explain why & how it happens, plus explore more mundane (yet nevertheless fucked up) ways in which we perceive and interpret gender and sexual minorities. No-paywall link, please give it lots of "claps" & share widely!

We've been hearing an increasing number of reports of trans people's GPs refusing to prescribe their HRT to them - even if they have a letter from an NHS gender clinic requesting that they do. That's why we're created our new My GP is Refusing to Prescribe My HRT resource: transactual.org.uk/medical-tra…

Has your GP recently refused to prescribe you HRT? Let us know at tinyurl.com/TransActualHRT

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.

Yesterday, the UK government used an obscure emergency process to make possession of puberty blockers for new treatment of trans kids illegal, and punishable by up to two years in prison. [1] There was no parliamentary debate, no vote, and no public consultation.

Parents of children on GIC waiting lists are being told by the NHS that if they don't bring their kids to an """assessment""" they risk being reported to Social Services.

The Good Law Project recognises that the NHS are behaving unethically, and is running a crowdfunder to seek urgent legal advice to challenge the NHS.

If you are looking for a good cause, the Good Law Project crowdfunder can be found here: goodlawproject.org/crowdfunder…
