Not only have transgender bathroom rights been revoked, but now civil lawsuits filed by members of the trans* community on this issue are being dismissed. What might happen if the American government continues to deny people protection from discrimination?

For example, we completely support @Caitlyn_Jenner for her bravery in transitioning. Though if she couldn't afford the transition process, would the media accept her as Caitlyn, or still be calling her "Bruce"?

Why does the media only discuss members of the Trans community who have enough economic resources to fully transition? Doesn't that show how our society still relies on the stereotypical concept of a gender binary and invalidates those who don't conform?
The media mainly represents the #Trans* community in a selective way (portraying people who transition between the binary genders.) The #truth is; it refers to anyone who doesn't identify with the gender they were assigned at birth.
Trans* isn't a gender!

Gender expression does not invalidate gender identity. Here's a great way to explain gender, sexuality, expression and physical sex. #genderidentity#genderexpression

Don't assume people's gender based on their appearance! The media mainly portrays people who have transitioned; But even if you haven't, your identity doesn't change, despite how you express yourself!

So many opinions are formed based on the misrepresentation of trans people in the media and in politics, leading to hate crimes against the trans community. We send our condolences to all those who have lost loved ones, family, and friends.

The "I'm Not A Joke" (by @Arzola_d ) campaign represents different perspectives on a multitude of social issues; racism, sexism, transphobia, homophobia, and more. Check out https://t.co/ztgJH9wV9U for more of his amazing work!
The impossible choice that transgendered people around the world are faced with every day. They shouldn't need to choose. #GenderNeutralLaws#transbathroomrights
Transgender doesn't just refer to people who transition within the binary. There's more in life than "boy" or "girl." Why is society so intent on labeling individuals? #breakthebinary#transgender#LGBTQ#nomorelabels
The Canadian Government taking another step towards inclusivity and acceptance! #StatsCanada

We should all be protected by the law, regardless of how we identify.
Glad to see Canada taking this step towards equality! Hope to see other nations adopt this mindset. #EqualityForAll#Canada https://t.co/hSLwl6AUtV
