With a nod to July 4th Christy Lewis looks at independence and what it means from the national level on down to each individual. She recommends that we look for a meaningful and visible way to celebrate, besides cookouts and fireworks.

Michelle Rogers is concerned about the attacks on transgender people that have blossomed all around the country. The religious right wing are introducing anti-transgender bills in the red states and right-wing politicians are fanning the flames. What can be done to defend transgender rights? Michelle has some thoughts on the problem.

Recent anti-transgender legislation in the Sunshine State has considerably darkened people’s mood. Bills banning gender-affirming care for minors and restricting access to care for adults have been signed into law. One new law allows a parent who disapproves of their child’s gender identity to legally kidnap the child from the parent who accepts the child’s identity. These laws and others passed in red states are all based on lies told for political gain. But the laws have many transgender folks scared.
Christy Lewis is a conservative minded person and she took a conservative approach to transition. As a result of her approach she came out to her church, to management at her work place, and to her co-workers. She is satisfied that all of the people she interacts with now are not scared to be in the same room with her. But she points out that fear sells. Could that be why politicians have attacked transgender people?

If something has not been done about the debt ceiling that the GOP is holding hostage in just a few days the government will default on paying the debts that have already been authorized by Congress. What happens then to people, many of them members of the transgender community, who depend on government assistance to survive? Rabbah Rona has a preview.

While she didn’t get up early to watch it, Sophie thought about the coronation of the new king of England and examines the place of pageantry and ritual in our lives. Here college graduation came to mind and sparked this post.
Boys will often use the phrase, “You play like a girl” when they want to make fun of a rival on the playing field. But that’s a phrase that for many trans people is a compliment. Christy Lewis looks at the variety of things that girls, and grown-up women, do that come naturally to them. Behavior that trans women would do well to emulate if they want to be accepted as ladies.

The right wing is displaying downright paranoia over transgender people. We continue to see record numbers of attacks against trans people in the US. As a result of this, some trans activists urge trans people to arm themselves for self-defense. Why do conservatives engage in attacks, both legislative and physical? Rabbah Rona feels that much of it has to do with their interpretation of Christianity.

Easter, Passover, and Ramadan all happened at the same time this year. Thinking about the significance of the holidays got Sophie to looking at them and find connections between the holiday rituals and transgender transition.
After a major life transition Christy Lewis feels she is still the same person she was before transition. Her past matters; it formed her present, and guides her future. People that have known her before and after transition still recognize the same person despite the different outward appearance. Christy feels “It’s the same, but different” implies continuity.
Michelle Rogers is a trans woman who identifies as conservative. She was appalled by the Nashville school shooting and further concerned that the shooter’s transgender male identity might give more power to the right-wing attacks on trans people, both in legislatures and on the streets.
