Imagine this.
Your sex is female but you identify as male.
You hate your female body. You want so badly to have a male body because you’re a guy. Your assigned sex at birth is wrong.
Every day you hate your body more, and it makes you hate yourself more.
Then you hit puberty.
You want male puberty because you’re a boy. You want to be like the other boys counting your chin hairs and chest hairs, waiting for your voice to drop, teasing your friends when their voices crack.
Instead you get female puberty. You develop breasts, and you were “lucky” enough to have large breasts. You start having periods. Everyone is doting on you “becoming a woman” but you’re not a girl, you’re a boy.
You have to wear a bra because breasts. It’s a daily reminder that you’re turning into a “woman” when you’re a boy.
You have to go through your period once a week every month (that’s 25% of every month) for 9 YEARS.
All of it daily reminders, that you were born in the wrong body. 41% of trans people have attempted suicide. 30% of trans tend have attempted suicide.
And this can be mitigated by just taking hormone blockers.
And that’s not even going into the other part of this bill.
Teachers and school counselors will be required to tell your parents if they suspect you’re trans. So let’s say you live with transphobic parents. You’re trying to keep this from them because if they find out, they’ll literally kick you out of the house or assault you if they find out.
You come out to your friends they use he/him pronouns for you. They call you “Kyle” instead of “Katrina”.
Your teacher overhears this and tells your parents. Now your parents physically abuse you and kick you out because you are forcibly outed.
This bill could end up with teenagers, basically kids, murdered. That is assuming it doesn’t cause them to commit suicide.
That’s why we hate this bill. First of all, hormone blockers aren’t permanent. Second of all this is SO MUCH MORE than hormone blockers. It’s putting kids in unsafe households in dangerous situations.

imagine trying to learn english and hear this
the worst part is that this makes perfect sense to me
There is no one in earth stronger than people who learn English as a second language. I bow to you
corporations are actively convincing us the reason behind global warming is that you, personally, aren’t reusing your pasta water to make tea and eating the teabag for lunch #vegan and we just let them
no seriously the amount of ppl I see who are genuinely trying to do the right thing and who think global warming is their fault because they have a car or turn the fan on in the summer or eat a goddamn buger is astounding. people are truly brainwashed into thinking anything we do as citizens has an effect on the environment that’s somehow more important than the actions of corporations.
in 2020, when everyone was isolated at home, fossil co2 emissions in the US only dropped by 11%. think about how insane it is that when almost every person living in the second largest GEG emitter was at home for months, the effect they had was a reduction of barely 11%. and yet that fucking carbon footprint calculator is shoved down our throat all day long. a whole 4 years ago when that article came out saying only 100 companies are responsible for 71% of global emissions, everybody just blinked and went “no, thank you. now have you bought enough metal straws?”
and i’m not even addressing the blatant racism, ableism and classism that coats every single one of these “personal responsibility” arguments.
what sounds more dangerous - fast food every other day or soul food on easter, christmas and thanksgiving? 🤔🤔
