Everything conservatives theorize happening to cis girls because of “being forced to share spaces with boys” already happens to trans girls.
Trans girls deserve love and protection, which also means an embrace of our girlhood.

the thing about “trans women are women” is that if you truly believe that — and you should — then you will become horrified beyond measure at what we as a society are willing to put young girls through, just because they are trans
it’s not just a statement of fact; it’s a recognition of brutality

I can't imagine how much worse it would have been had I known. I weep for trans kids who have to grow up in this environment
i've tried describing it to people before and they treat plain descriptions of fact or even underexaggerations as bombastic fiction instead of witness testimony to routine and ritualized sexual assault. it sucks
anyways, it shouldn't have happened to any of us, and it shouldn't happen to anyone else
No idea if it was connected to being latently trans and somehow performing masculinity wrong, or what, and in some ways it doesn't matter…
They do not want to eliminate such evils but apportion them.
Trans is being used as a target to hate. Bad timing.
