As we mentioned in the news, Britain’s NHS is relying on the Cass Report, a report which was condemned by many medical authorities when it was released. Dr. Cass has never had a transgender patient, but that sort of first-hand knowledge seems to be unimportant to the NHS. She complains that studies on transgender patients […]

White Christian Nationalism is the current threat to transgender people and the USA. There. I said it. Yes, this is going to be political. The stakes are too high for otherwise. What is it? Whitehead and Perry (2020) define Christian nationalism as “a cultural framework—a collection of myths, traditions, symbols, narratives, and value systems—that idealizes […]

But, as Rabbah Rona Matlow points out in this post, not every trans person can display themselves in public in all areas. If it’s to dangerous don’t risk it. Don’t feel guilty if you didn’t take part in an Easter parade.

Watch Your Back Part 2, Dealing With the Hate

Being transgender hasn’t been easy. In the ‘80s and ‘90s though activism by the trans community and outreach to the general public made out existence a bit easier. But it is estimated that around forty percent of our citizens are close minded authoritarians who don’t deal well with change. It happens that many of these people are in state legislatures and even in Congress. While the general public has grown more accepting of LGBTQ people the super conservatives have decided to attack with anti-transgender legislation. Michelle L. Rogers is a conservative who is also a trans woman. She is frightened by what’s happening and urges everyone to watch their backs.

Four Years Since it All Changed

In January of 2020 the first case of Covid-19 was found on the west coast. The disease was ravaging China and without a pandemic plan here it wasn’t long until it was popping up all around the country. The administration spent way too long trying to minimize the danger, telling the nation that the disease would magically disappear. In the meantime bodies were being stored in makeshift morgues and refrigerated trucks. Sophie recalls 2020 and also recalls who was in charge at that time. The same administration that failed to act soon enough to the pandemic wants to return to power and they have made it clear that one of their major goals is to eliminate transgender people.

Cardinal Gerhard Muller claims that Jesus would have gone to prison in “Canada or the United States or European countries” because he opposed marriage equality and opposed transgender rights.
