I appreciate this.

 

BBC posted an article on me.

'I'm a transgender woman - ask me your invasive questions' - BBC News



Haven't actually watched it yet, partly since I was there for the whole interview (:P) and partly because I'm hoping they edited it okay and didn't make me look like an asshole haha.

 

Oh wow it really is you, congrats that's amazing

 

Haha what do you mean it really is me?! Who else could it be!

 

I read it quickly and thought you were saying " it me" like it was relatable not that you were famous

 

I look at all your older photos and I want your beard so badly lol, bizarre sometimes thinking about things in reverse. If I ever doubted being trans, that always clinched it. "Nooo what a fabulous beard I'll take it"

This is my weird way of saying ilu and you helped me more than you'll ever know

 

Of course bbyboy ;) I wish I could go back in time and transfer you my beard haha

 

That's awesome @Gwen Happy for you!

 

This is unbelievably wonderful. Thank you so much for this! I just wish the vid would hold on that last frame for like another ten minutes haha.

In the UK Teachers have been advised to avoid using the term “Boys and Girls” so that transgender pupils do not feel excluded. What do you think about that?

Personally I feel mother nature makes you as what you are, and if you’re a gay boy or girl, you’re still a boy or girl.

 

That isn't what transgender means

 

I have a hard time gathering the energy to respond to shit like that with anything but "you're wrong and go fuck yourself" anymore, if I even bother responding. It's honestly just exhausting how much/frequently the validity of the existence of trans folks is questioned or attacked.

 

Worst fucking poster on the site

 

That isn't what transgender means.

 

Holy hell, it irks me to no end knowing that there are people who still conflate being gay with being trans. Astounding ignorance.

Maybe read the thread before posting in it? Just a thought.

 

Banned. Tired of this and there's been so many warnings.

 

Saw a few peeps with "Support Trans POC" signs yesterday but chickened out on saying hi to them. However I did walk home wrapped in my rainbow flag listening to Whitney Houston on speakerphone, so that was fun.
