Howdy new followers!
I’m Keira!
Yes, I’m trans.
I talk about lots of stuff but given the looming…. Unpleasantness for
LGBTQ people I’m probably gonna spend a lot of time ranting about those issues so uh, be forewarned.
If that bothers you, move on.

I see a lot of folks saying this will hurt Dems in the midterms and frankly I’m not sure that’s true - if anything, it shows the depth to which people are angry and engaged and wanting to fight these assholes
but it does substantially increase the chance they will be voting for different Democrats

the reason you don't need dysphoria to be trans is because dysphoria can be impossible to realize without first accepting your own transness

it’s an 80-20 issue in the minds of elites but an atlasintel poll taken in the run up to the election found voters overwhelmingly supported the pro-trans rights candidates. highly suggest you root claims about our lives in data, not conjecture.

This was me.
I started ideating about turning into a girl by age 11 or 12.
This was the 1990s in rural eastern Oregon-think Idaho culturally.
My only exposure to trans anything was as the punchline of a joke, and even that was rare.
A hint of being queer was a ticket to ruthless bullying….

I mean, you'd think the fact that many of us had these thoughts and feelings in an era when we literally knew nothing about gender identity / transgender subjects would be convincing enough. But these people are not driven by rationality.
