‘I’m 77 years old, #blind and #trans’

After coming out, #ChrissieCochrane, now 77, used her “#blindness to great effect,” telling people: “I don’t care if you #stare at me. I can’t tell, so I’m going to not even think that you are.”

Gay morning greetings folks 👋🥱

I wish you all a lovely day, but also fully appreciate that life is difficult for many (maybe even most) right now :PleadingFace:

As such, if the best you can do right now is survive, that's something at least :IntersexInclusivePrideHeart: :MentalHealthFlagHeart: :DisabilityPrideHeart:

Please take care of yourselves & show kindness to others in need however you can :PinkHeart:

I don't think they've advertised it in the fediverse yet, but yes, I did indeed write an article for the amazing @transactualuk, & they were kind enough to publish it here:

Embracing your identity as a transgender person is a profound journey of self-discovery. It's a path of incredible beauty. Despite its challenges - it's worth it, folks. #transgender

Self-determination for trans people is nothing new. Sir Ewan Forbes changed the sex on his birth certificate in the 1940s, announced his new name in the newspaper and legally married his wife. His cousin challenged the change for reasons of inheritance, but the judge ruled in Ewan’s favour.

For this week's Throwback Thursday let's revist this article about Sir Ewan Forbes: https://www.makingqueerhistory.com/articles/2016/12/20/sir-ewan-forbes-the-doctor. Forbes' story is a reminder that trans people want to lead peaceful lives.
