it's wild how much unscientific terms have permeated our media and politics. there's no such thing as 'cross-sex hormones'. there's no such thing as 'gender ideology'. there's no such thing as 'sex-based rights'. yet we hear them multiple times daily from the press and politicians.

if you have to define sex with a specific genetic marker plus a list of caveats about DSDs then sex is a social construct as much as gender or being from a certain country y'all just playing nationalism but with who gets to be in the olympics, spoiler it probably favours white peeps somehow

From Instagram - today the Dyke Project shut down NHS England HQ to protest the politically motivated ban on trans youth healthcare.

transphobia is a hobbyless behaviour, y'all need to stop letting fascism make work for idle thumbs

Yeah if a cis guy played a teen version of my in a hypothetical biopic i would actually be hella offended at the suggestion that a pre transition trans woman is equivalent to a cis boy

this is exactly it, the "neutral, objective" positionality of Cass etc. is one of seeing transition as a failure state, something avoidable which people get locked into if they get affirmed and which represents the loss of a 'normal' cis life

For me, the biggest takeaway is that many people in charge of trans healthcare view transition as harm, as a failure, as an unfavourable outcome to avoid. They fundamentally conceive of trans existence as a disease to cure, and feel themselves righteous advocating for our eradication.

Today is the Venmo equinox, so, you know, do some mutual aid

these are death camps

START HRT. YOUR FAMILY IS ALREADY DISAPPOINTED.

DLSS 5 OFF / DLSS 5 ON

oh no the man in charge of healthcare didn't do any of the transphobic healthcare decisions, sure

Here’s what meeting Wes Streeting was like for “young trans people and their families” metro.co.uk/2025/01/01/t...

sometimes I can't quite tell what everyone on here is talking about, I don't quite get what you're saying guess I don't have parsing privilege

Reading the work of @torreypeters.bsky.social again and really feeling the juvenile elephant bit, like we're all about to collapse under the trauma of it all and go full agropelter mode on each other. We've been denied our past and we so desperately need a shared future, need hope.

or the historical favourite of yes to hrt but only for the least clocky and most attractive trannies as gatekept by the creepiest of white cishet male doctors, and only if you promise to move town and never tell anyone you're trans and btw what do you think of when you [redacted]

Absolutely this...

Felt cute today, might delete later. 💅 #OmArt #art

in this qualitative study I used a grounded theory methodology underpinned by bodily autonomy theory and found descriptive narrative themes that trans women grew boobs on oestrogen and fucking loved it conclusion give everyone hrt

It also cemented the wrong questions. They’re stuck asking “Do these medicines have an effect that we, cis people, can measure against our extremely cooked and arbitrary scale?” When the real question is, “Do these people want to change sex?”

Trans people still need healthcare even if the state prohibits it. Just as abortions get pushed into backstreets, so HRT gets pushed out of clinics and into so-called 'black markets' which aren't generally being run for nefarious reasons, just to help fellow trans peeps

Happy International Women's Day to trans women, femmes and fem oriented people everywhere, and the cisgender women who accept us for who we are & support & fight for us. The rest of you need to up your game & join the 21st century.

"I will never judge any woman for when she finds her voice", unless she's trans obvs in which case full mask off weirdo terf mode applies, huh lady?

Estrogen. Estrogen is the vitamin. This is the trans experience (except for the people being nice to you part)

Or at the very least, "if they get away with doing this to trans people, then they'll happily do it to you next, so show some solidarity before it's too late"

Starting to wonder if being trans is just getting new repressed stuff released on a regular basis, like Overwatch updates but for subconscious dysphoria.

Ooh there are drafts here now, let me get filling them with things I will never post

Should I post something before following like a hundred people out of the blue on here? Nah
