Children in Britain have so little autonomy granted to them it's actually pretty disturbing. The only autonomy some parents seem willing to grant is "go get a part time job"

Exactly this. I can't totally speak on it as I'm not non binary but it also drives me up the wall when people expect non binary people to look almost "non gendered"

Yeah the same people who tell trans women "ugh there's more to being a woman than wearing a dress" turn around to me when I talk about wearing dresses as a trans man like "oh so you ARE a woman then" š

Keir_Starmer you say Labour is the party of work, why then is it, that for the first time in 15 yrs Iām being forced out of a job I love because of a DWP decision made on your watch? I desperately want to concentrate on my job but I can only work with the right support 4/4

(I don't even think I mostly dress particularly "feminine" I think it's more that I dress like a stereotypical gay man and then occasionally I like wearing dresses/skirts in my own home because the outside world is too terrifying to go out in it)

I have maybe? Grammar seems to dissolve as soon as I'm on Bluesky š

She was starting to suggest I'm not actually trans and maybe I am a woman and that terrified me after learning she has a trans son. Like I've heard it all, but that is very concerning coming from the parent of a trans child. I really hope she's early in learning about trans people and this changes

I'm sorry about that. This is one of my hills I'll die on: trans and non binary people deserve androgyny and gender non conformity, there's such an expectation of hyper performing your respective gender to "earn" your spot under the trans umbrella, which mostly comes from "allies"

that point "supportive" parent decides he's not a "real trans" terrifies me. I can hope she learns more by then and this doesn't have the potential to turn into a pressured, unwilling detransition story 4/4

Which happens to be more feminine things. I know a bunch of trans guys with similar experiences. I'm worried this might be the experience of her son that she's supportive of so long as he performs masculinity at 110%. The thought this kid I don't know may have a similar journey and his up to 3/4

When I was starting transition and wasn't yet comfortable in my body, that would have been me. Because I worried no one would see me as a man, I made up for it by dressing hyper masculine.
When I grew comfortable in my body I was confident enough to wear things I actually LIKE 2/4

Nothing more British than politely silently killing people

Where's his evidence that this is in any way beneficial for trans kids? Or does he just vaguely gesture at the Cass review? (Which as terrible as it is, I'm pretty sure even the reviews guidance isn't *this* evil)

They'll start at anyone 25 and under with that "well the brain hasn't finished developing" bs then probably lock everyone out of anything after that with long wait lists & different bs that it's "too late to see any changes starting at 30+"

It's very annoying because a good majority of trans men don't pass and for some (like me) "passing" isn't really the end goal. I feel first and foremost I'm a gay man, and that doesn't align with the public perception of trans men

"At last! It happened! No woman in labour you can't leave, this will be the front page of the daily mail"

I wish there was a way to see in real time transphobic gays forcing themselves to do a massive 180 on finding him attractive when he said he's trans

The fact they call it "lying" as well. Biologically I am more of a man than a woman based off my hormones, so I wouldn't be lying telling them I'm biologically a man, and when I finally get yeeturus surgery I'll be even more biologically male than I am female

The argument would be some crap like "anyone who has benefited from the sphere of male identification - regardless of whether they are legally recognised as men or even socially recognised as men - may not enter the realms of biological women who haven't deviated from their sex"

Even if they enshrined needing to show a birth cert in the most bigoted law known to man, I still wouldn't carry it on me.

I guess their dream outcome after the Supreme court ruling was for all trans people to be fired and given pink armba-- I mean, identified respectfully and shooed into the mythical separate third space
