In the US here; I'm very happy to have this be the first reading I've done this morning, or at least relieved to hear it. I've been struggling for months leading up to our election with... not-happy thoughts. You're right though: existence is resistance. And dammit, I'll resist until this vessel gives out. Thanks for writing 🖤
Thank you for being open and vulnerable and genuine. You made a difference in my day, and I know you've given so much to this community. I'm grateful for you, and I'm here if you ever need a shoulder of support. We're stronger together.
Thank you for articulating this. I'm in the American Deep South, and it's much the same here. But keep fighting the good fight. Please. We desperately need you here.
Please do not underestimate the value you contribute. Your voice is one that is heard (albeit not by nearly enough people), and respected. Personally, I need to know more about the issues you write about, simply because they are not issues I might see or understand as well as I do, thanks to a number of insights I've gained in the time since I first encountered your writing.
As someone experienced with mental stressors, I can only suggest that being here is preferable to not being here, and hope that in your time, you will (as I have) find a path beyond mere existence to a life of sincere happiness.
Doctor who has done trans care my entire career, sometimes the only doc for miles around taking care of trans folk. And my nephew is trans. Thank you for your voice, your advocacy, your example of courage.
Your perspective is massively ignorant. Trans folk have always existed, even back to Ancient Egypt. We doctors who take care of them recognize this. Your bigotry is a product of lack of education and Christofascist indoctrinated hatred. Get educated and let go of your backwards hatred.
You’re a mentally ill female who should have never been given testosterone. And you’re not a man, even if you pass.
You should have been told NO. Living a life of fraud and delusion is not a valid existence.
I don’t blame you. I blame the doctors who make money from exploiting your mental illness, which probably stems from childhood abuse. It’s not your fault.

Me too, Kaylin. Me too.

Hear, hear! Now more than ever, the fact that my existence is a big "Fuck You" to their hate makes me want to be even queerer.
Hang on, and don't let the bastards grind you down.
You UK trans people have a lot to teach us in the US especially now.

A <hug> in solidarity.
Still fighting here. Still helping up folks knocked down.
There is no such thing as “transphobia” because there is no such thing as “trans.”
The whole thing is a lie.
Stop telling lies that lead to men in women’s prisons and the mutilation and sterilization of children.
