Hey thanks! My reply to you somehow was posted twice, so if you see another in your inbox that’s why. I deleted this one just before you replied but the other is still up.

As a trans woman, I don’t see HRT being pushed as the only way to be trans. I think the vast majority of us recognize that there are many different paths people take. I have a friend who can’t take HRT because of blood clotting issues they have, and they are still 100% valid. Even if someone’s health doesn’t prevent them from taking HRT and they just don’t want it, they are still valid as well. The people saying that HRT is necessary to be trans are known as transmedicalists and they are cringe.

Edit: This got double posted somehow, so I deleted the first one.

Two kids were playing catch with a milk carton to see who it would burst on. One kid missed and it hit me and burst. I was blamed for it and the teacher tried to make me clean it up no matter how much I explained that I didn’t do anything wrong. Fortunately, those two kids owned up to it and they cleaned it up but the teacher was super upset about it and still insisted it was my fault. Idk if she had some sort of vendetta against me or if she just couldn’t accept that she was wrong and doubled down.

I just read their wiki page and it is absolutely filled to the brim with crazy wacky shit.

The Collinses do not support transgender health care for youth, but express acceptance for people whom Simone described as “legit trans” as opposed to those who fall into the “trans cult.” Simone opposes allowing transgender students to use bathrooms corresponding to their gender identity and to play on sports teams matching their gender identity.

As a trans woman, this stood out to me. I’m not surprised that they are transphobic, but why make the point about “legit trans” and “trans cult?” I assume they consider “legit trans” to be the tiny percentage of transgender people who are right-wing nuts and the “trans cult” are those who aren’t. Basically they’re just saying “We only support transgender people who want their faces eaten” which is a strange way of phrasing it since usually transphobes tell all of us to go fuck ourselves, including the dumb ones that support the leopards.
