I cannot begin to imagine how absolutely exhausting it must be for trans people to have to continue to remind everyone that their intrinsic human right to live authentically and fully does not depend on the “approval” of anyone else

If that’s the Pew voter poll, IIRC it showed something like 70% of Democrats supporting trans rights, with the overall drop driven by a massive shift in Republican sentiment and a small one amongst Black Democratic evangelicals. It’s mostly a partisan story, like so much else these days!

yeah it kinda sucks ass ngl

Well, to those who do not “approve” I have a simple message. Fuck you 🖕

Do the people who disapprove realize that *I* disapprove of them!?

I'm so tired

I mean, I was raised Catholic, so honestly I'm used to it.

What word do those people think the T in that means, exactly

Exposure is our greatest tool against this. We have to educate others and inform others that we are, in fact, human. Unfortunately bc trans people are a percentage point of a % it's gonna take time but I think that's the way out of this

People say things like "I don't care what you do as long as you don't shove it down my throat" do the math on the last part 😭

It sucks, sure. If you let it obsess you, it can easily eat away at you until you're constantly rubbed raw by it. But the truth is that most cis people are gender illiterate, anyway. As long as they recognize that they have no right to enforce their idiocy, caring what they think is silly.
