Gender-Affirming Care for Trans Youth Is Neither New nor Experimental: A Timeline and Compilation of Studies

FUCK @dasharez0ne, if you have a scrap of dignity and give a fuck about trans people? Spread this far and wide.
Below is a Google Doc discussing how the trans person that was behind
it got chased out by the transphobic asshole running things now. Oh, and how she got cut out of getting almost any money from that highly successful Kickstarter campaign.
They don't deserve your time or dimes. Spread the word everybody, Da Sharez0ne is DONE.

A good haircut really makes a difference.
I couldn't help smiling when I saw the result and if I'm not smiling on the selfie it's only because
1) I had the sun in my eyes
2) I'm very self-conscious about my smile (nothing to do with my teeth I just think I've an 'ugly' smile)
3) I wanted to look kind of 'badass guy' 😜
Too bad some people close to me were upset that I'm 'really looking like a man' (so technically a compliment put wrapped in disappointment).
It put quite a damper on my euphoria even though they say they'll get used to it.

Tomorrow I get a haircut.
Yeah, how is THAT for entertaining information?!
Joke aside that's the first one I get in 9 years (I usually do it myself).
It's also the 1st time I go to a barber, not a salon.
They have the pride flag on their window but still I'm a bit nervous to be honest.
So... Tomorrow, new haircut selfie or not?

The #wtf of the day:
A cis-man who knows I'm trans accused me of mansplaining to him.
Then he mansplained that me mansplaining is a side-effect of taking testosterone.
But only for trans people.
According to him cis-men are born with T so they 'know' how to deal with its effect while trans people like me are too overwhelmed by it to be able to control it properly.
I was too flabbergasted to ask him how come rape, physical violence, mass shootings etc. are done mostly by cis-men supposedly 'in control' and not by 'rabid trans men' like me.

FIVE SEX PANICS
In the 19th century there was a panic about masturbation and its effect on the nation on both sides of the Atlantic.
At the beginning of the 20th century there was a panic about women's liberation, in sex and politics, destroying society.
By the mid 20th century there was a panic about sexual liberation and free love.
Later, in the 70s and 80s, there was a gay panic and gays were presented as predators and deviants.
Now, in the early 21st century, there is a trans panic and its trans and non-binary people who are seen as the social threat.
These are five separate panics across over 150 years, But, actually, they're not separate at all: they are the same panic generated by the same people that comes again and again and again in waves. Its a panic generated by the sexually puritan and socially authoritarian whose politics is that of coercion and control.
This tendency is the ultimate enemy of all lovers of social and personal freedom.
But while forming opinions, maybe seek out writing by ACTUAL trans thinkers and journalists. Not just the quick reactions of cis social media admins who've never had to grapple with any of it.
Speaking of, that's something BBC itself is historically quite bad at.
I have nuanced views about the value of pre-emptive blocks and the vital importance of creating space for news organizations.
But I'm really disappointed with a number of #fediverse thought leaders whose stance to our legit pain seems to be dismissal and mockery of folks most directly harmed by their coverage.
If you're uncomfortable seeing me in the locker room, you can either choose to no look at me or you can wait until I'm done. If you think that any given trans kid isn't truly trans and will regret transition, too fucking bad. If it's not your body, you don't get a say in the decision.

I had to delete #ZazaFournier 's #Mademoiselle because I looked up the English translation, and it sounds like #AntiTrans shit.
Can anyone comment on this?

It was a lovely group, but I'm amazed at how insulated cis folks are. A few well-meaning questions along the lines of "is this really about hate or just lack of understanding?"
And my internal reaction is just shocked that cis folks either aren't aware that major political figures are now openly calling for the total eradication of people like me or else don't think that counts as hate.

From WaPo:
"Meanwhile, we found several media outlets that rank low on NewsGuard’s independent scale for trustworthiness: RT.com No. 65, the Russian state-backed propaganda site; breitbart.com No. 159, a well-known source for far-right news and opinion; and vdare.com No. 993, an anti-immigration site that has been associated with white supremacy.
"The top Christian site, Grace to You (gty.org No. 164), belongs to Grace Community Church, an evangelical megachurch in California. Christianity Today recently reported that the church counseled women to 'continue to submit' to abusive fathers and husbands and to avoid reporting them to authorities."

Given how instrumental Evan has been to *everything* on the fediverse, that was a wonderful thing to read. But yes, ActivityPub the standard was primarily authored by trans folk and so much of fediverse software development, so many instances being run have happened thanks to many wonderful trans folk.
the fascist attorney general of Missouri has set up a tip site for complaints about gender transition, hope it doesn't get spammed by long, fake complaints over and over until he takes it down!

i was frustrated with the language used to describe gender and how limiting it is as a nonbinary/genderqueer person to use language centered around the gender binary. this is what sprung from that frustration:

Do you know of a tech coop that is accepting new members? Does your community require some IT work to be done (programming, running servers, and similar)? Does your small company want to contract or hire an extremely experienced IT person? I need to work on a part time basis, and I have over 20 years of experience. I am the only member of our four person household that can currently support us. Please help.
