"Help, community, support, connection: it IS out there for us. And the more we fight to access it, the more empowered we will become to make the changes necessary for trans joy – which means trans health – to become the rule, and not the exception." Fred
Transition-related regret is considerably lower than that which follows having children, abortions and even knee surgery – despite what some right-wing pundits would have you believe.

#Transgender Care Coverage Policies in North Carolina and West Virginia Are Discriminatory, Court Rules
The states violated federal #law by banning coverage of certain treatments for transgender people but allowing it for others, according to a decision that could influence #courts around the country.
I'm Rachael, I'm a 32yo trans woman trapped in a red state and I am unemployed after being fired for being trans.
I just spent $1900 on bills for the month. I'm officially out of money. And I had a large unexpected surprise bill: I need $170 to avoid having my heating shut off. It's past the disconnect date and still on so it's a matter of when they send someone to turn it off? I think? Either way I'm on borrowed time and if I'm not fast enough the bill will get WAYYYY bigger to turn service back on. Please, please help.
Thank you.
