I wasn't going to say anything, but your post has prompted me...
I personally hope to do the opposite. I hope to show transphobes why they are wrong. I believe there is a reason why they are #transphobic, and that someone should deal with that reason.

It's going to take a lot of hard work and patience. But #transphobes are fellow humans, too. Something has led to that #transphobia. Wouldn't it be nice if they understood and overcame their phobia? To have a friend?


Reminder for Pride month that Meta's platforms including #Threads are allowing the spread of hateful transphobic content:

Allowing Threads to federate is allowing hatred to spread.

- If you run a Fediverse server, please defederate threads.net (instructions for Mastodon are here: https://fedi.tips/how-to-defederate-fediblock-a-server-on-mastodon/)

- If you don't run a server, please ask your server admin to defederate threads.net

From @e_urq at Assigned Media:

Contrary to what transphobes think, you can't "always tell” when someone is trans. This is the inevitable result.

Yesterday, the UK government used an obscure emergency process to make possession of puberty blockers for new treatment of trans kids illegal, and punishable by up to two years in prison. [1] There was no parliamentary debate, no vote, and no public consultation.

Parents of children on GIC waiting lists are being told by the NHS that if they don't bring their kids to an """assessment""" they risk being reported to Social Services.

The Good Law Project recognises that the NHS are behaving unethically, and is running a crowdfunder to seek urgent legal advice to challenge the NHS.

If you are looking for a good cause, the Good Law Project crowdfunder can be found here: https://goodlawproject.org/crowdfunder/nhs-cyp-guidance/

#HBTQ -flyktingarna i kenyanska #Kakuma har brist på mat. Situationen är mycket påfrestande. En del av dom har fått fly vidare till #SydSudan och behöver också omvärldens stöd.

Hjälp gärna till du också. Ditt bidrag gör skillnad för en utsatt grupp som får väldigt lite massmedialt utrymme.

Today in LGBTQ History, May 17 is International Day Against Homophobia, Biphobia and Transphobia (IDAHOBIT). This date was chosen to commemorate the 1990 decision to remove homosexuality from the International Classification of Diseases of the World Health Organization (WHO). In 2009, the WHO added transphobia to the name of the campaign, and organized activities that year to highlight and end. The goal of the campaign is to raise awareness of violence, discrimination, and repression of LGBT communities throughout the world.
