It's just a sports ban. It's just a bathroom ban. It's just a healthcare for kids ban. It's just a military service ban. It's just a federal jobs ban. It's just a university housing ban. It's just a passport & visa ban. It's just one Constitutional right. It's just your status as free citizens.

Which is to say that violence is also thoroughly gendered, an act that connotes certain delineations in a world where aggression, strength and power are all considered the domain of men, while women are meant to—for various meanings of this phrase—take it. There is thus a terrible anxiety that centers upon the boy, this creature that is destined to grow up and become a man with all the power and vigor and virility that embodies, but is not quite a man yet, is distressingly proximate to the reviled woman by dint of his dependence and relative frailty and subjection to authority. For all the arrogant assertions of the naturalness of gender, most cultures have understood that boys need to be made men, need to be inculcated and indoctrinated into the cult that is manhood, and many have accordingly acknowledged this explicitly via the coming-of-age, the rituals and processes through which a pitiable boy, this child that is a potential-man, can demonstrate his readiness for the mantle and harshly divide his boyhood from manhood, demonstrating definitively that he has successfully left his juvenile weakness behind him.

Though of course, this begs the question: what of those who do not succeed?

If you can succeed in overcoming boyhood to become a man, what happens if you fail?

Paradoxically, boys are often subjected to violence to make them men, are broken down and further abjected in a bid to make them reject that abjection. A boy that is not sufficiently aggressive is made the subject of aggression, a boy that feels too much is angrily taught that the only feeling he can express safely is anger, and a boy that refuses to prey on others is brutally made to understand that that will mark him as prey himself. Boys have to like girls without loving them, without wanting to be like them or among them. Boys have to reserve affection and admiration and camaraderie for other boys, without crossing the threshold that makes that affection too much like the affection only a girl can harbor for a boy. Boys have to prepare to be men, and any insufficiency in that regard must be violently corrected until the boy decides that doling out the beatings is better than being on the receiving end.

Still, some boys never quite learn what’s good for them.

There is another purpose to this omnipresent violent correction, this repeated attempted breaking of the boy to reveal the putative man ensconced within, irrespective of how old the arrested boy actually gets. Simply put, should the constant testing of manhood be too agonizing, the repeated failure to become that which the boy was supposed to become too much to bear, and the torturous excesses of others’ brotherhood too exclusionary and ostracizing, then the failed man, the persevering boy, can finally elect to stop persevering, one way if not another, thereby ridding the world of his malodorous taint.

so, this is that. KOSA, SCREEN, internet obscenity definition act—whatever you call it—this is where trans people are declared inherently obscene. can they do that? trans troops were just kicked out of the armed forces for being inherently deceitful & dishonorable, so probably! unless people fight.

Stop Project 2025 comic with the following speech bubbles:

HI. I'M LUCY. THAT'S NOT MY REAL NAME, AND THIS ISN'T WHAT I LOOK LIKE. BUT THAT'S FINE, BECAUSE WHILE THIS IS MY STORY...

IT'S ONE THAT THOUSANDS OF OTHER TRANS PEOPLE HAVE LIVED THROUGH, AT LEAST A LITTLE BIT. IT'S OUR STORY TOO.

I'M HERE TO TELL YOU HOW NIGHTMARISH PROJECT 2025 WILL BE FOR TRANS LIVES. BEFORE WE GET TO THE MAIN EVENT, LET ME SET THE STAGE.

I'VE BEEN OUT AND MEDICALLY TRANSITIONING AS A TRANS WOMAN FOR SEVERAL YEARS. IT COSTS ME THOUSANDS OF DOLLARS IN MEDICAL EXPENSES EACH YEAR.

I ALSO HAD TO FLEE MY HOME STATE DUE TO BIGOTED LAWS AND FACED DISCRIMINATION EVERYWHERE FROM MY OWN FAMILY TO MY JOB.

IT'S PRETTY BAD. AND IF TRUMP GETS REELECTED AND PROJECT 2025 IS BROUGHT INTO ACTION, IT'S ONLY GOING TO GET MUCH WORSE. "TRANSGENDER," "GENDER
IDENTITY" AND "BIOLOGICAL SEX" ARE USED OVER THIRTY TIMES IN THIS PHONE BOOK OF HATE, SO I'M GOING TO KEEP IT SIMPLE.

THREE POLICIES. JUST THREE. THAT'S ALL THEY NEED.

LET'S START AT THE TOP. PAGE FIVE. "PORNOGRAPHY, MANIFESTED TODAY IN THE OMNIPRESENT PROPAGATION OF TRANSGENDER IDEOLOGY." ANY TRANS PERSON'S STORY WOULD BE LABELED AS PORNOGRAPHY, OUR LIVES. OUR EXPERIENCES. EVERY PART OF US.

IMMEDIATELY FOLLOWED BY, "PORNOGRAPHY SHOULD BE OUTLAWED. THE PEOPLE WHO PRODUCE AND DISTRIBUTE IT SHOULD BE IMPRISONED."

I THINK YOU CAN SEE WHERE THIS IS GOING...

Stop Project 2025 Comic with the following speech bubbles:

THAT MEANS THAT ANY TRANS PERSON TALKING ABOUT THEIR TRANSITION COULD BE IMPRISONED. EVERY STATEMENT ABOUT OUR LIVES, A POTENTIAL OFFENSE.

HELL, THE STORY YOU'RE READING RIGHT NOW WOULD QUALIFY.

NEXT. "RESCIND REGULATIONS PROHIBITING DISCRIMINATION ON THE BASIS OF L...J GENDER IDENTITY, TRANSGENDER STATUS, AND SEX CHARACTERISTICS." PAGE 584. PAIRED WITH PAGE 495, "A GENERAL STATEMENT OF POLICY SPECIFYING THAT IT WILL NOT ENFORCE ANY PROHIBITION ON L...] GENDER IDENTITY DISCRIMINATION" IT PAINTS A PICTURE. DISCRIMINATION TOWARDS TRANS PEOPLE AT PLACES LIKE THEIR JOBS WILL BE FULLY LEGAL, LEAVING US OPEN TO UNMITIGATED HARASSMENT AND HATE.

PAGE 485. "WITHDRAW ALL GUIDANCE ENCOURAGING RYAN WHITE HIV/AIDS PROGRAM SERVICE PROVIDERS TO PROVIDE CONTROVERSIAL 'GENDER TRANSITION' PROCEDURES OR 'GENDER-AFFIRMING CARE'." PAGE 462. "FUND STUDIES INTO THE SHORT-TERM AND LONG-TERM NEGATIVE EFFECTS OF CROSS-SEX INTERVENTIONS, INCLUDING 'AFFIRMATION,' PUBERTY BLOCKERS, CROSS-SEX HORMONES AND SURGERIES." PAGE... TAKE YOUR PICK. THERE'S A DOZEN MORE.

BY CUTTING FEDERAL FUNDING FROM ANY MEDICAL FACILITY THAT OFFERS TRANS HEALTHCARE, AND STANDING AGAINST IT AS OFFICIAL POLICY...

HORMONES AND GENDER CARE WILL BECOME ALMOST IMPOSSIBLE TO FIND. FOR THOSE OF US WHO ARE ALREADY ON THEM. IT'LL WREAK HAVOC.
OUR MENTAL HEALTH. OUR BODIES. DAMAGE THAT WILL RUIN LIVES. AND FOR TRANS FOLKS WHO CAN NO LONGER PRODUCE A SAFE LEVEL OF HORMONES...

IT COULD KILL THEM.

I KNOW THERE'S A LOT TO KEEP TRACK OF. I HAVEN'T EVEN COVERED ALL THE ANTI-TRANS PROPOSALS IN PROJECT 2025. IF YOU TAKE NOTHING ELSE FROM HERE TAKE THIS: FOR TRANSGENDER PEOPLE ACROSS AMERICA, DEFEATING TRUMP AND PROJECT 2025 ISN'T JUST A POLITICAL RACE. IT'S A FIGHT FOR SURVIVAL. AND WE NEED ALL OF YOU FIGHTING WITH US.

It’s surreal how fast the United States has fallen into a dictatorial regime. Checks and balances are gone, the president disappears innocent people into foreign prison camps, words get banned, and the Overton window shifts at light speed. I honestly wonder these days when they will come for me.

1. Yesterday, Trump released a broad anti-trans executive order that could have extreme impacts on transgender people's lives if implemented. There has been much discussion of what it actually does. In my latest piece, I go line by line to explain it. Subscribe to support my journalism.

Trump released over 70 executive orders on Monday. While orders on immigration and climate got a lot of attention, his anti-transgender order could have sweeping impacts as well.

It’s been a tough day, but we knew this was coming. They told us their playbook months (years) ago, and nothing that happened today has deviated from that. Take a deep breath. We’ve been preparing. We’ll still be here tomorrow. I spent tonight with friends and loved ones. I hope you can too.
