I seriously don’t understand why these people have such hate against trans and gender diverse people. @pullman.wsu.edu

Amazing news from Queensland, Australia! 🇦🇺

This is what justice looks like.

Gender affirming healthcare for trans and gender diverse individuals is extremely important.

Amazing news that many higher education institutions will need to follow.

Why do (cowardly) cis men like these who have commented are still supported by many of you in the mainstream community to harm trans and gender diverse (TGD) people?

There is a catch. Many trans 🏳️‍⚧️ and gender diverse (TGD) & cisgender people are using medical transition especially bottom surgery as a condition for one to categorise themselves transgender.

Sometimes it just feels like the whole cisgender world irrespective of their sexual orientations is at war with the trans and gender diverse (TGD) 🏳️‍⚧️ world. Sometimes Even the TGD world is at war with itself!

திருநங்கைகள் பெண்கள் தான். எங்களை உங்களுக்கு ஊம்ப கூப்பிடும் போது மட்டும் எங்க “பெண்மை” தெரியுற சுன்னிங்ககளுக்கு இதுல வந்து எங்களை பெண் இல்லை என்று சொல்ல நீங்க யாரும் ஒன்னும் ஆணோ/பெண்ணோ/மனிதரோ இல்ல.

குடும்பத்தில் உள்ள பெற்றோர், உடன் பிறந்தோறென நீங்கள் அனைவரும் எங்களை traumatize செய்து உங்களுக்கு பாவங்களை அள்ளி கொண்டது தான் மிச்சம்.

Wow! Why don’t you ban the acknowledgment of cisgender people? Don’t have that much courage do you?

ஆஸ்திரேலியாவில் வாழும் இந்திய குடிமக்கள் இன்னும் இனவெறிக்கு ஆளாக்கப்படுகிறார்கள். இதில் இந்திய மற்றும் தமிழக அரசுகளின் பங்கு என்ன? மோடியும் ஸ்டாலினும் தங்களை பற்றி பேச தான் இங்கே வருகின்றனர். மக்களை காக்க அல்ல.

With rising right-wing extremism and racism in Australia, are international students safe in Australia anymore? How do higher education institutions ensure their students’ safety?

You don’t want us to live with you under the same roof because of our gender. But why don’t you want us to peacefully exist somewhere else? Why do you want to deliberately hurt us?

Brother exploited this woman for money & deliberately attempted to murder her.

How more #shameful can cisgender #researchers, #policymakers and people in general get? Why is that #Violence Against #Women and #Girls (#VAWG) is associated only with #cisgender #people and not #trans and #genderdiverse people?

In 1965, #Malaysia kicked #Singapore out.

No army. No resources. No fresh water

Just a tiny island of 2M people living in poverty.

Then ONE man's ruthless vision built modern Asia's greatest success...

I hope and pray that this isn’t true…

60 transgender people who refused to convert to Islam were injected with HIV…

இஸ்லாமுக்கு மாற மறுத்த 60 திருநங்கைகளுக்கு HIV யை ஊசியால் செலுத்திய கொடூரம்…
