This is actually correct btw and it's why hypno kink is so popular among newly out trans femmes
The thing about hypnosis for me, is that it is the wielding and application of the most potent, powerful tool for changing one's behaviours, presentation, and mindset:

An excuse.

There was extensive documented debate at the time 14A was drafted as to whether it would apply to Chinese railroad workers and gold rush workers' children. The answer was unequivocally that yes, it did. (5/3)

Today I learned about another elder, Harlow from Philadelphia. It’s good to see her getting her roses:

Harlow's still here
Fifty years ago, Harlow was the queen of Philadelphia nightlife, Jack Kelly’s girlfriend, and the city's most famous transgender woman. Today, she’s ready to tell her story.

Every trans person who dared to object to bias was automatically categorised an “activist” and dismissed out of hand by the nyt

Think about the gutter bigotry that reflects. That’s the nyt leadership.

anti-trans attacks are never about trans people, for far too many allies. it's always about something else, and trans people are the distraction or collateral damage

pointing this contradiction out only makes many allies angry at trans people: we're difficult, or self-centered, or a "luxury" issue

the thing cyberpunk got wrong is that it imagined the fun kind of degeneracy fluorishing instead of the "betting on which murder suspect did the hatecrime, game show style" kind

(its usually both in those depictions but yknow what i mean)

The thing about all the anti-trans sports panic: people argue this stuff while talking about elite level sports, but because there aren't actually a ton of superhuman trans women blowing away the competition, the people actually affected end up being those who play sports for fun/socialization

You have the choice to sacrifice trans people. Perhaps it will save you.

But you don't get to ask trans people to accept the role as sacrifice. You cannot expect understanding, acceptance, forgiveness, or respect.

You made your choice.

a lot of people's intuition is that intellectual errors lead to moral errors, and I think it is much more common that it is the other way around.

one of the things about transphobia that grinds you down on a daily basis is not the active stuff that happens to you, but the knowledge that you're almost destined to lose whatever social conflict you might have with a cis person

what they’re showing is that no institution will support or back a trans woman under any circumstances.

as soon as someone makes a threat or kicks up a fuss, we are abandoned, betrayed, left to twist in the wind.

what place in society is secure for us, while this is the status quo?

what place?

Bsky is mostly a machine for showing me upsetting things that I can't do anything about, but it's also the way I find out about new chapters in @persenche.bsky.social 's trans wish-fulfillment novel, so who's to say
It's Sunday, and that means it's time for the next chapter of The Tower!

In Chapter 8: Transition, nothing gender related happens at all. Also, Riley absolutely makes no further self discoveries, and nothing gay happens at all!

See for yourself:

A THIRD YEAR student wrote this.

Unreal. I wouldn’t accept this in a high school class.

The only major faction which does not believe it is the far right, which understands itself to be in a cultural battle for hearts and minds which is only glancingly correlated with economic anything. It’s worked out wonderfully for them

much LESS charitably to the people we're talking about I think the idea that material conditions and political/moral/intellectual/social conditions are not intrinsically bound to each other to the point of total congruence is anathematic to their worldview

This is wonderful news, and also means it’s time for me to beat the drum I always do when HPV vaccines make the news:

They are not only for women! HPV also causes penile, anal, and head and neck cancers. The latter are particularly deadly. Please vaccinate ALL your children.
Australia recorded ZERO cases of cervical cancer in women under 25 for the first time since they started tracking the cancer in the 80s.

This is the power of vaccines.

The HPV vaccine is extremely effective at preventing cancer.

Viruses can be oncogenic. Get your vaccines and protect yourself!
newsGP - Australia set for world-first cervical cancer elimination
Vaccination programs have played a key role, and GPs remain ‘instrumental’ in boosting screening rates to reach the 2035 target.

A delightful novel and I’m awaiting each new chapter with bated breath!
It's Wednesday, and that means it's time for more of The Tower! Today we're back with the rest of Ch. 7, Distortion. Therese tries to have a useful dream but instead just manages to get very sick to her stomach, and Brynn tells an extremely nasty bedtime story!
