If you're in a safe country for trans people, I'd like to ask you to do one of two things: 1. Get your country to accept trans refugees from the US & UK 2. At least, remember us in the "first they came" poem equivalent that someone will write after what's coming is done.

So What if my C's presentation next year was about the NSFW comics many trans people use to explore our gender when we're eggs? Like, their rhetoric, and how they reflect the framing of transness as inherently sexualized.
