My late wife was big into true crime, and my current wife loves watching protest videos. Still true crime, just with the government as the criminals.

If you've spent your entire life feeling like you're not quite as pretty as the other girls because that was the barometer of value during your lifetime, and then you see someone who was born male and feel like they're more classically feminine than you, I can imagine thats pretty hard to process*.
I maintain that a substantial amount of transphobia in cis women is actually projected insecurity of their own self-image within a rigid gendered framework.

They have to be aware trans people exist, but not actually perceive us. Feel free to use this week to act like the Boogeyman and scare some people.
Shit we have to be perceived for an entire week?

This reminds me of something that gets said in the Widow community, where just because you have a dead spouse doesn't make you a good person.

We all have been through trauma, whether being trans or being a wid, and sometimes that breaks people. Sometimes, they were just fucked up to begin with.
my buddy had a rancid interaction with a doll on tinder and i told him being trans doesn't fix being a dumb bitch

What we're seeing in the "don't sign up for protests" discourse is what Paulo Freire described as the convert's failure to trust the knowledge of the oppressed. As the convert tries to stand in solidarity with the oppressed, they refuse to let go of a world where they were the authority by default.

I think, in light of all the rotten people out there spreading terf nonsense, today would be a good day to support trans creators.

Trans folk, please add your links to this thread for books or crafts or whatever you do!

In order for perfect to be the enemy of the good, you need to present a good option first.

Gavin Newsom is simply terrible. Sorry but you have a man here who said he wants schools to out trans children to their peers and to ban gender affirming care to adults.

That’s NOT good.
Do you fuckers have a AI up your ass that makes you say "don't let the perfect be the enemy of the good" because fucking Christ you can't seem to goddamn say anything else
