Yeah, I was about for some of that. Like if you had any contact with LGBTQ+ communities pre 2014 pretending the T was added by Stonewall in 2015 is such a comically obvious lie. Luckily for GCs virtually nobody they're talking to had any contact with LGBTQ+ communities pre 2014.

I'm so fucking done with trans liberals having a big cry because not every trans person shares their politics. We're allowed to disagree with you. We're allowed to think your tactics are bad and we're going to say so.

[CN: Extensive discussion of suicide, some oblique reference to methods]

Tl;dr, the NHS knew that suicide rates jumped among trans youth in the wake of the Bell case and covered it up. Cass was made aware of this and obfuscated the implications of it.

I very rarely speak on these things because I don't want to cross the line between necessary analysis and using other people's trauma as gossip and content, but we have to be able to talk about the existence of people in queer communities who will take advantage of the massive degree of...

So about a month back a pal of Sophie From Mars wrote a defence of her that featured this paragraph and I don't know what to say really other than that these fuckers always seem to group together.

Ridiculous. Everybody knows it's the exact type of vegan curry and/or stew you'd be served the second you set foot in a social centre in the 00s.

There's no right or wrong timetable that works for everyone, to be clear. Only you can decide when it's right to come out. I can heartily recommend doing it at some point though. The closet is exhausting and sad.

I socially transitioned a year before starting HRT because I live in the UK and if we did things on the NHS' timescales we'd basically all still be closeted.

It's super important that allies stand up for trans folks here as trans people often have their own social media posts shown to them by ther service and are threatened with the withdrawal of care if they talk about their bad experiences.

People thinking TERFism is the origin point of all transphobia has a lot to answer for, but this kind of soft holocaust revisionism is a pretty bad one.

It's perfectly simple. You just need to describe your gender without reference to a set of social ideas about our experience of our sexed or the social meaning thereof.

In a shocking development, the woman talking about how seeing two people kiss in a children's book made her addicted to pornography was a right wing plant for some weirdo conservative grift.
