And no doubt she probably got a lot more hate and criticism from “fans” than others due to her gender.

As a woman, it is hard to argue for equality without agreeing that women should have to register. So bring it on. Give us the same rights and requirements as men.
It’s completely unfair how trans people are so disrespected in life and death. How much does it cost to use someone’s proper name and pronouns?
between this and SCOTUS’s striking down the heartbeat law, it’s a great day for ladies (and gents that care about a lady’s autonomy over her own body)!
A 20 minute lecture that starts with why they’re wrong and after about 30 seconds veers off to unrelated topics buzz words and applause lines
Hehe well I’m glad to hear that you’re doing fairly well, and planning on moving to a place with a better environment! I’m not sure how far north it goes, but some local agency in either CA or OR issued a letter recently recommending that trans coverage be expanded. That kicked off a broad rush of local healthcare…
I know how you feel. I've got the hair, and no perceptible Adam's apple, and hormones have been nice enough to me in terms of fat redistribution, but I'm still tall and more hairy than I'd like, and it's all but impossible to find shoes that fit without ordering them online. One thing I will say, though, is that now…
A lot of people use the word “let”. We didn’t “let” her. We didn’t grant permission or allow her to do anything more than express who she is.
No trolling perceived. Fair question (and one that every family member has also asked).
My daughter is transgender. She’ll be 4 (yes, four) on Wednesday. What has been fascinating to me so far is watching how unconditionally accepting children are of her transition (we made the pronoun and name change this fall) and how the only problems we’ve had are from adults.
I don’t really see it as a red flag. The guy has some trust issues, and he’s already got some distorted way of looking at her interactions. He says that she needs to “re-evaluate her values and integrity” as if talking to and meeting people somehow makes her some awful person. I’ve dealt with that kind of worrying and…
I thought I would find overwhelming support for the advice offered to the first guy, but... I was wrong. Just because you’re in a relationship with someone doesn’t mean you get to authorize their platonic day-to-day interactions. Talking to people without your knowledge isn’t some cloak and dagger clandestine way to…
It would help you to learn to stand up for yourself if people mistreat you (when it’s safe to do so), but don’t beat yourself up for being a sensitive and caring person. If the world was full of more sensitive and caring people, it would be a much better place.
Thank God she got a $6 million settlement in her civil suit. I have this theory as an attorney that the only way rape victims can get vindication anymore is through the civil system. I have represented rape victims pro bono to file lawsuits against their attackers, and against the police department, and will continue…
Except the game was not “10 years in development.” It was developed in 2 years, then rebooted, then developed for another 2 years, and then rebooted againm rinse repeat because the lead guys at 3Drealms wanted to make Duke the biggest and best. The game you got now was only 5 years in development with 2 of those years…
We know it’s a boy because of early screenings. So, we actually tested every way til Tuesday at a fertility clinic because of our age, and it was taking us a while to conceive again. We were thinking that if there were issues, we’d go with genetically tested IVF. Turns out, we didn’t need any intervention, but the…
Hey, I had two miscarriages in a six month period, and am now 16 weeks and going great. It really is the luck of the (egg) draw. I was terrified to try a third time, and I’d be lying if I said the first trimester wasn’t frightening, but twice isn’t a foregone conclusion.
FUCK. THIS. GUY. RIGHT. IN. HIS. EAR.
