A ghost stegosaurus visiting their newly discovered bones. They’re so happy you found them!

Could you maybe reblog this post if you think respecting trans peoples' names and identities is a basic right and not a political opinion?

No pressure. Just seeking some validation of my sentiment. Due to some. people

Underneath that reads “There Are Many Reasons” and beneath that is a series of four images with captions. They are all black and white and in a simplified style. The first image is of a person in a wheelchair. There are musical notes by their head to show that they are singing. The words being sung are “they see me rollin’, they hatin’”. The caption is “always ridin’ dirty” The image to the right of it depicts a person running over another person with their wheelchair. The caption is “RUN OVER the ableist.” The third image to the bottom left is of a person in a wheelchair rolling down a steep hill or ramp. There is a motion blur to show the the person is going fast, and they have four exclamation points above their head. The caption is “oh shit oh fuck oh”. The fourth image to the bottom right is of a person in a wheelchair at a counter with another person standing behind it. The person standing is depicted as saying “It’s amazing that you can live like this”, while the person in the wheelchair is depicted as saying “I just want my fucking groceries”. The person in the wheelchair has a popping vein on their forehead to denote anger. The caption is “be an Inspiration™” /End ID]

Today the Washington Post tracked down my little brother’s personal cell phone number because my mom is the president of an organization that supports families of transgender kids.

Yesterday (Feb 9 2023) my home state, Missouri, announced a government investigation into organizations providing care and support for transgender kids.

This is after an administrator at Washington University’s Pediatric Transgender Center came out in a now-viral article about how the Transgender Center was “rushing” trans kids into care and “mutilating” us. She gave away the personal information of many of my trans loved ones who, like me, received care from the center, and she described our bodies as horrifying. Everything she said was a lie.

No goddamn trans person is “rushed” into medical care, especially not trans minors in states controlled by far-right politicians. No one gets medical care for funsies in the only industrialized country without free healthcare.

I received care through this transgender center as a minor and it took over a year and countless doctor’s notes and visits to begin any sort of medical treatment. You can hear this same story from any trans person, especially — AGAIN — minors in Republican-controlled states. I had to see fertility doctors at 16 years old who tried to convince me not to go on T.

My mom, because she’s amazing, joined a support group when I came out. She is now the president. She had to alert the police yesterday after journalists kept coming TO HER HOUSE.

I finally got a call from a Washington Post journalist today to interview me, an actual trans person who received care from the Pediatric Transgender Center. She spoke with me for only 20 minutes and didn’t know the most basic facts about being trans. No doubt my words will be published in a ridiculous thought piece that only adds to the oppression of trans minors.

My medical transition has brought me nothing but joy. I was simply lucky to begin it at 17.

I am so scared. Trans people will be eliminated in the US as this progresses. This is not just a “red state” issue, either. Please extend compassion to your trans siblings and keep up with the trans eliminationist legislation and actions throughout the US.

Transphobes do not touch this post.
