A woman gains nothing when JK Rowling is gratuitously cruel to random trans women on the internet. It doesn’t gain a woman equal pay, opportunities in sport, protection from sexual violence or protection from misogyny. In fact, many women would say their experience of misogyny has increased markedly at the hands of Rowling fanboys. She is hurting real people, people who just want to live their lives in peace in order to claim some hollow victory by destroying all around her.
This #MentalHealthAwarenessWeek we're focussing specifically on what trans people can do to look after our mental health. It's especially important at the moment because there's seems to be a new thing to contend with in the news every week.
One year ago I stepped outside as Nora for the first time, to attend a small local parade. I was so nervous and uncertain, just a few months into my surprise gender journey.
This year I returned to the parade so much more confident in the person I’m becoming. Now I’m practically reveling in the uncertainty of the future, because whatever happens, I get to meet it as my true self.
The idea of selling my home in Texas and moving elsewhere is unappealing at sixty-something years of age. I was born in the northeastern US and lived there until moving to Texas with my parents when I was just 5 years old. I have always had mixed feelings about that move. But 30+ years ago Texas conservatism was more about economics than race, religion, sexual orientation, and gender identity. Way back when, many Texas conservatives seemed to hold a live-and-let-live attitude that I could tolerate even as a lifelong liberal. But either they have changed or Texas conservatives are simply being more open about their bigotry than before. Texas conservatives no longer have qualms about interfering in the personal lives of others when doing so aligns with their own biases. Maybe Trump has enabled that, or Republicans have gradually enabled more of that since Ronald Reagan was president. As the father of an adult transgender daughter with special needs who relies on me for support, I understand why she feels not only unwelcome but outright unsafe in Texas. The results of the 2024 presidential election may determine whether I merely feel the need to move to a blue state or leave the country entirely. This decision is really weighing on me. But my ancestors immigrated to the USA from Europe and my parents relocated to Texas from the northeast. Maybe it is time for my family to move someplace where we would be happier.
Former president Trump plans to reverse Biden's expansion of Title IX protections for transgender students if re-elected, posing a severe risk to their safety and rights.
A dear friend of mine is experiencing homelessness after coming out as trans. Any help in boosting or sharing, or donations will help her make it to her destination where help and support are waiting
Trans people have always been here, but too often our histories are hidden.
Have you heard of Jim McHarris? He was born in 1924 and socially transitioned in his early teens. He moved around a lot, but then decided to settle in Kosciusko, Mississippi. Unfortunately, other residents of the town soon discovered Jim’s gender history and he moved on once again.
