Reposted by @prideofthedeise.bsky.socialLilith Ferreyra-Carroll @trasinscneach.bsky.social · 11/05/2025Many LGB folk in Ireland need to acknowledge that part of the reason they feel less safe now is they didn't heed warnings from trans people about what was happening to us and/or act up when they did. Too many people disengaged after marriage equality and that malaise has bitten us all in the arse. 35519
Reposted by @prideofthedeise.bsky.socialLilith Ferreyra-Carroll @trasinscneach.bsky.social · 11/05/2025A ban on trans people from GAA would be devastating. GAA is more than a sport, it's integral to Irish cultural identity, community & integration. It's already happened to trans teens who are locked out from 13 because of hormone rules/no healthcare so they can't play. Please don't let it happen! 0185
