After what happened with JKRā€™s hateful ass yesterday, I definitely feel this way. She has to know that once she calls her followers to dogpile me, they do. Itā€™s a hate cult & sheā€™s their leader. Pathetic. TERFs are some of the nastiest people that Iā€™ve ever come across in my

The problem for transphobes isnā€™t necessarily that we exist in our homes, itā€™s being visible in society. Think about it. Every time a trans person is even a little bit visible the far right and TERFs freak out. The example of the blind trans woman at the ParaOlympics is a good

I was once a queer kid. I came out at as a lesbian at the age of 14 & I started my activism career right then and there. I started by writing to my legislators & volunteering with the Midwest AIDS Prevention Project. It was 1996 & I came out into a world that hated me. I came

This is exactly what I want. I want the government out of my life. However, as a transgender person, that doesnā€™t seem possible these days. With 527 anti-trans bills in statehouses nationwide, the Republican Party is trying to legislate every part of our lives. Bathroom bills,

Transphobes love to say degrading shit like this to trans people. Yet here I am working in my law office right this very moment. They cannot stand the idea of a successful trans person. To them, we are all sexual deviants who donā€™t have jobs. Well Camilla, I hate to break it to

I, as a trans person, have a medical condition that requires medical care. That medical care is called gender affirming care. GAC is 99% effective with a regret rate of under 1%. More people regret: having children, having knee surgery, and getting a Harry Potter tattoo. Yet,

Transphobes hate me because they want me to shut up. They want me to stop speaking out. They hate that Iā€™m not a caricature of a trans person. Iā€™m just a regular guy trying to live my life. I just happen to be trans. If these bigots stopped for a second, they would realize that

This shooter actually said they were frustrated because of trans acceptance in society. These people want to tag us as all as violent criminals. This is dangerous because that couldnā€™t be further from the truth. Are there trans criminals? There are criminals in every

I think itā€™s ethical to keep using Twitter (X). As long as youā€™re here to fight against hatred and disinformation. We canā€™t let the bigots and Russian disinformation puppets win. Iā€™m fully in when it comes to this war of ideas. Especially when trans people are such an easy

This idea that trans people are ā€œpretendingā€ is absurd to me. I live life authentically and life feels pretty damn real to me as a man. This is just another anti trans trope that transphobes love to throw at trans people to degrade them. Instead of listening to us about our

I just learned what the TERF term ā€œpeakingā€ means. Itā€™s essentially when TERFs tip someone over into the anti-trans camp. It could be someone sitting on the fence of trans issues. Itā€™s essentially recruitment into their cult. Or they can also ā€œpeakā€ a trans person to

TERFs & ā€œtrue transsexualsā€ want to destroy me. They want to stop me. They think that by constantly attacking me & throwing out the same old repetitive anti trans slogans at me, it will hurt my feelings. It doesnā€™t. Iā€™m out to destroy your hate cult of lies & expose you. Not
