fremde Menschen anquatscht und am ende des Tages zwar müde ist, aber sagt, dass das der beste Tag seid langem war, ja, dann bin ich mir sehr sehr sicher, dass wir das richtige tun.

(Und war es mir auch schon vorher.)

„Wie könnt ihr euch denn sicher sein?“

Diese Frage habe ich mal wieder in Bezug auf unsere trans Tochter bekommen.

Kann ich nicht, denn ich bin nicht sie. Ich kann nur meinem Kind vertrauen.
Aber wenn ich sehe, das mein Kind, das Menschen Masse hasst, bei krach schnell überfordert ist und nur ungern viel läuft,

The #GOP, and the right, took their lessons spreading Islamophobia and are weaponizing their tactics towards #dragQueens and #transKids. #USPol

One thing that their earlier tactics didn't have were open militants, Qanon cults and total disregard to bad press.

This is what happens when the mainstream press placates hate, like the Tea Party, as they did during the Islamophobia phase of the GOP's war on truth.

Für mich habe ich auch ein Shirt gemacht, was K1 so gut fand, dass es auch eines wollte (ohne Schriftzug).

Dann sind wir morgen für den CSD gerüstet, denke ich.

Schwarzes Shirt mit Aufdruck.
Der Aufdruck hat dir Form eines Polaroid. Das „Bild“ ist eine Transflagge. Darunter steht: „protect kids“.

Ebenfalls ein schwarzes Shirt, mit selbem Aufdruck, wie in Bild 1 nur ohne Schriftzug. Und das Shirt ist etwas kleiner.

Happy #internationaltransgenderdayofvisibility ! This is one of many books we stock where I work that support trans kids and their families.

As a #nonbinary parent of two #transkids, ensuring accurate information is easily accessible to folks and families with questions is near and dear to my heart. It's more important than ever that this information continues to be available. If you live in #Ottawa, consider visiting and/or supporting the #OttawaTransLibrary. 🏳️‍⚧️💜

Happy #TransgenderDayOfVisibility! 🏳️‍⚧️ I'm proud to be a parent of a #trans, #NonBinary 20 year old. I am ever grateful to the providers of #GenderAffirmingCare in Boston and where they go to college now. #Parents and #TransKids in states where your human rights are under attack, I see you and support you and am enraged for you. #ProtectTransKids #TransRights are #HumanRights

A New Bill Could Legalize #Kidnapping #Transgender Kids by Their Parents

A newly introduced bill Friday by #Republican state Senator #ClayYarborough in #Florida could let a parent kidnap their children and bring them across state lines if the parent believes that the child is receiving #GenderAffirmingHealthcare—or even if the child is simply "at risk" of getting that care.

As a #transgender person, I have thought about what it means to be a gender more than any cis person can imagine thinking about it.
I cried, prayed, and agonized about for years.
I got so introspective, I had a council of voices in my head to debate with.
I wanted to die for a long time because I thought that would be easier than wrestling with my own identity.

When I read about all this anti-trans legislation being passed across the country, across the world, I think about how fragile my sense of self really was when I was just a kid. I think about kids out there, right now, questioning and terrified to say anything, thinking they must be wrong or broken because adults know what's best, thinking they are less deserving of love and acceptance.
These kids.
These beautiful, sensitive, remarkable kids.
They are being taught to hate themselves.
Self-hate leads to self-harm; it leads to accepting the worst because you feel like you deserve it.

We can't let this continue.

If I knew how to fix it, I would.
I would have already.
But I don't.

@georgetakei George I simply don't understand why #transkids #trans #kids frighten conservatives do much.

It has been quite some time since we saw a headline like "12 year old #trans #boy shoots up school killing 20 students".

Those have all been #cisgender boys and men, mostly from #conservative hetero families.

Perhaps conservative #politicians are like priests. #Confronted by their own ability to be swayed towards having #relationships of a non #heteronormative nature with these children and see the #devil in the #temptation.

They shouldn't worry too much since they have those #delicious 16 year old #pages readily #available in the #senate to satisfy all their secret desires that they can't discuss with their #pastor or #priest.

A young boy in cartoon form is harassed thoughtfully by a devil with a tail wagging behind him as if he was house speaker Kevin McCarthy.
