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.

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.

Posting this amazing art ("pink in the night") by Eunnie, who has seemingly not yet joined the fediverse, so that you're not missing out :TransHeart:

I have added full alt text, which was sadly missing from the posts elsewhere.

since the NY Times is doing it's thing again – quoting anti-trans groups to make gender-affirming care for trans youth seem dubious – I will re-up this essay, which includes over 100 peer-reviewed studies and reviews:

Welcome to #TransTuesday! I’ve talked so many times about how trans people and cis people really aren’t all that different, but there’s one way most cis people never realize that may just blow your mind. Strap in for CIS PEOPLE GET GENDER AFFIRMING HEALTHCARE TOO.

This one is VITAL for cis people to see. Cis friends, please boost this thread! We REALLY need cis folks to understand what's going on here.

Welcome to #TransTuesday!

This week’s topic is vital to trans people being seen and treated equally by society, and it’s just as important for cis people to understand.

Time to root out the darkness within as we combat INTERNALIZED TRANSPHOBIA.

This involves discussing ways we may not be kind to ourselves or others. Please read the whole thing before getting angry about it. This is important and we need to talk about it.

Gender-affirming careβ€”for ADULTSβ€”is now predictably under attack in #Texas. This is part of a Republican plan of genocide underway against #trans people. We need cis allies to be loud and angry on our behalf. Pay attention, this doesn't end here or with us:

”Employees are expected to comply with this dress code in a manner consistent with their biological #gender.”—#Texas Department of #Agriculture memorandum

Ag Dept employees received an unwelcome surprise in a new dress code issued last week that seems aimed at oppressing #transgender and #nonbinary workers, reports Digital Editor Kit @oconnell based on a document leaked to us:

This week's comic: Certain media outlets are falling for the GOP strategy of treating trans people as some kind of national emergency

#cartoon #trans #transgender #media #journalism


"Tw*tter has quietly altered its Hateful Conduct Policy to remove protections for #transgender users, as spotted by the Gay & Lesbian Alliance Against Defamation (#GLAAD). In a section that prohibits attacking other users, Tw*tter removed a line that specifically includes the β€œtargeted #misgendering or #deadnaming of transgender individuals.”"

Help wanted! So the anti-transgender reporting form on the Missouri AG’s website only allows one submission per IP address. But the site is also available via IPv6. I’ve written a bot to submit ChatGPT-generated garbage to the form, but I need someone with some IPv6 infrastructure to help me launch it. Any hackers want to help? Boosts appreciated.

I signed, shared, and added this comment:

I am a queer Black trans US-American. My story is included in the NYT Opinion Pages "Transgender Today", published in 2015: https://www.nytimes.com/interactive/2015/opinion/transgender-today/stories/pax-ahimsa-gethen

I subscribe to NYT Games but not the newspaper.

It was never about protecting kids.

Yesterday in Utah, Senator Escamilla called Republicans bluff by making them vote on banning teenage breast implants in an anti-trans healthcare ban.

All Republicans voted against it.

This is bad.

A new anti-trans bill in West Virginia would ban "transgender exposure to minors" as "obscene matter."

It would add to a law with a 5 year prison term, and to ALL laws around minors in WV.

It must not pass.

23 bills targeting trans people have been released in 14 states since the New Year.

I had to add several literally in the process of writing this as they keep coming out every hour.

Our community needs help.

A terrifying bill was just dropped in the late night hours in Oklahoma that would medically detransition all trans people up to age 26.

I called this would happen months ago - states are moving towards outright elimination.
