If I couldn't be happy as a girl/woman, who cares what the reason was? I got accused of wanting to transition bc I was abused, but...who cares? If I'm happier as a man there is no reason to unpack why I couldn't be happy as a woman, at least this way I can live a full life.

Another problem with “you can just be GNC” is that the same people making this argument often criticize trans people who are non-passing or non-conforming for their chosen sex. You kinda have to pick one!

A typed-up letter:
Dear beautiful women,
I've started this letter like ten times and deleted it every time because very time I start I cry. So I'm just going to write it.
Your flag matters to me. It matters so much that it's flying at a lesbian household where anyone walking by can see it.
I'm a trans girl so I'm not sure you can relate but I'll try. Most days I'm doing math in my head like which hallway is safer, who I can sit near at lunch whether it's worth saying something or just letting it go. I'm so tired. I don't think people who don't have to do it know how tired it makes you.
I walk past your house almost daily. The first time I saw the flag I slowed down without meaning to. It was just hanging there like it was no big deal but to me it was everything. It felt like the people inside would see me as who I actually am and I wouldn't have to explain or prove anything. My shoulders dropped for the first time all day and I almost cried right there in front of your home.
I know that living here isn't easy for gay people like you where not everyone is kind about it so putting that flag up means risking stares, comments or worse. You did it anyway, and that is the bravest thing I've seen anyone do. Every day it stays up it tells people like me that someone is willing to be brave so we don't have to be alone. Now I look for it. Some days it's the one thing that makes me feel like I'm not imagining that I deserve to be here. When so much of the world feels like it's deciding whether there's room for me your flag says there is. Please keep it up. You might not know it but it's helping me get through the day.
Thank you for your courage, and for leaving the porch light on for the rest of us.

People are saying, *my* Democratic candidate has pledged to immiserate my life, and you're trying to shame them into voting for that candidate. That's a shitty thing to do. As for me, I'm voting Dem because my candidates aren't transphobic. If they were, I'd vote in other races, but not theirs.

Wintersong @wintersong.bsky.social · 12h

You want trans people to vote for politicians who are determined to destroy them in the hope that you can build a better world on their corpses. You could have chosen to push the Democrats to be better, but you'd rather throw trans people to the wolves to save your skin for a little while longer.

Wintersong @wintersong.bsky.social · 12h

Can you really not see how trying to scold people into supporting candidates who WILL make those people's lives worse because it'll make for a better world for *you* is both shitty political messaging and a vicious, cruel thing to do?

Personally, I think what really threatens American Jews is insisting our safety is dependent on denying what the whole world sees, that the Israeli gov committed war crimes against Palestinian civilians. Force people to think protecting Jews means denying reality, and they will stop caring about us.

from Melissa Braunstein: "Nobody waged war against civilians. Lies like this from authority figures set dangerous things in motion that negatively affect *American* Jews."

This shit is how you know she wasn't making a calculated political move by being transphobic towards her constituents. She hates trans people and decided attacking them was the thing to do because she's a fucking bigot with a platform right now, not because it gave her a political advantage.
