When my dad started to develop minor incontinence issues, he was really adamant that he was fine and didn't need adult diapers. It wasn't until I started buying these specific Depends that he actually started to use them more. I asked him why he finally used them 🧵
when i was SA’d , i reported it to the school multiple times. several of which they straight ignored , and two months after one they gave my abuser a plaque for being a “good , welcoming, friendly” student. when i was manipulated and pressured by both him and the +
That photo is from a 2020 awards dinner in New York, not her 30th birthday tonight. Zendaya and Jacob Elordi dated briefly around then and have not been linked since. Tom and Zendaya got married in a private ceremony earlier this year and have been appearing together on the Spider-Man: Brand New Day press tour. This is just another recycled rumour from an account that regularly posts made-up stories about them.
The Science They Don’t Want You to Know About Transgender People
The genitals and the brain develop at different times in the womb.
The genitals form between weeks six and twelve of pregnancy. The brain develops its sex characteristics separately, in the second half of pregnancy, under a different hormonal environment.
Two separate processes. Two different timelines. When they produce different outcomes in the same person, you get a transgender person.
This is not opinion. It is published embryology. It has been in peer reviewed scientific journals since 1995, including Nature, one of the most respected scientific journals on earth.
Over 100 genetic associations with transgender identity have been documented. Brain structure differences are present before any medical treatment begins, which means they are developmental, not caused by transition. Twin studies confirm a genetic contribution. Girls exposed to higher androgens in the womb show significantly higher rates of gender nonconformity. Every major medical institution on earth, the WHO, the American Medical Association, the Royal College of Psychiatrists, recognises this as naturally occurring biological variation.
Over 40 intersex variations exist. People born with XY chromosomes and fully female anatomy. People born with both genitalia. People whose chromosomes are neither XX nor XY. The binary is not a biological fact. It is a simplification that nature routinely ignores.
The Hijra community of South Asia has been documented for over four thousand years. Two-Spirit people held recognised roles across hundreds of Indigenous nations. Gender diversity is recorded in ancient Sumer, Egypt, Mesopotamia, Greece, Rome and every continent on earth.
Transgender people are not new.
The science explaining why they exist is not new either.
It just does not get reported the same way as the arguments about bathrooms.
Now you know why trans people exist
when I was like 19-22 I was like “I cannot BELIEVE I was reading smut at 11 that fucked me up in SO MANY WAYS IM SURE” but like as I get older I do think think that maybe it was actually a good way for me to explore my sexuality in a way that was not looking at people having sex
