We must enter every debate with the aim of trying to understand strong feelings on each side. Not as a warrior for those feelings. The emotional reaction comes naturally. Understand and listen first - and we'll be more effective in fighting for our cause. More persuasive.
I am sick of Twitter so.... cis cis cis cis cis cis cis cis, you're all cis, cis, cis, Elon Musk is cisgender - Elon Musk you are cis, cis cis cis. Do your worst, fuck eyes.
@nyx_nyx_nyx_666 I may be wrong but my feeling is... the US will become increasingly segregated with trans people unable to live in red states. But I don't think anti trans legislation would become federal, and I don't think this 'de-registration' would ever come to the UK. Scary though...
@IndiaWilloughby Every Lesbian I've ever met has had the same commonality with me (a trans woman) that nearly all LGBTQIA+ people have. Ie - you're a certain way you didn't ask to be and can't help being, and the world continually judges and persecutes you for it.
@TheDaiLlew I heard a persuasive argument for the Welsh flag becoming the UK flag. Green for England, Blue instead of white for the sky and Scotland. The dragon is even raising it's claw towards Northern Island. After all, who doesn't want a flag with a dead cool dragon on it?
'Don't call me a ciswoman, I'm just a woman'... OK why not say 'I'm a woman and I'm cisgender'? (If you're in a conversation where cis or transness is relevant). I bet they wouldn't though - although this is literally just saying 'I'm not trans'.
@_banquos_ghost_ Why do they always think we go around outing ourselves publicly to everyone? Why would we do that when it's vital for our survival that no one knows we're trans?
