Younger, who lost a bitter custody dispute with his ex-wife and fought to raise his transgender child as a cisgender male, also admitted to flagrantly ignoring a gag order by discussing his case on the show.
I'm so out of my comfort zone with a small speaking engagement tonight, and found myself seated next to the former MD First Lady Hogan! #MentalHealthMatters
In retrospect it's kind of sad, but the main reason I wanted to pass like a cisgender woman is so that I could avoid othered all the time. It shouldn't have to be that way. You shouldn't have to pass to feel safe. It's okay to be the way you feel, I think.
so, two months of discourse, and no one came up with an alternative to transexual & cissexual transgender & cisgender ✅ okay then, glad we accomplished that
I never before felt "fear" about some of my neighbors. I realize that's privileged (white, cisgender woman) but yeah, there are times when I think "better not reveal to this person I'm a biology professor" now
Cisgender
the biggest lie transphobic cis women tell is that more binary trans people tap into cisgender social privileges. sorry, have you met patriarchal cis men? are they really eager to welcome less obviously gender conforming people of any type, even their own cis fellows? women without children? etc.
Democrat apologists be like, “They care about middle class white documented U.S. citizens. Even the cisgender gay ones!” And then they get mad at you over “preventing progress” and claim you support the fascist party if you give even half a shit about the poor, brown, undocumented, or transgender.
And random adults leering at high-school athletes. “Crowds booed teenage athletes. And some spectators had begun eyeing cisgender competitors for signs of masculinity.”
The (cisgender) lady who helped me with my hair twice so far this year was at the trans support group last night (doing a little presentation on hair care). I went to say hi and had a little chat with her... told her all my news. She told me she was proud of me and gave me a hug 🥹
