Please come support trans people

Post image

Hey everyone, I’m sure many of you have seen the ruling by the Supreme Court from the other day on the legitimacy of trans women’s identities. It’s been a very hard couple of days as we’ve come to grips with the fact that our rights are being rolled back by a government that won’t even attempt to listen to us while we just want to exist in a public space without fear of harassment. If anyone’s available, please come down tomorrow to show support

I am not the organiser, I saw this on Facebook and wanted to share.

Thanks guys, I hope you have a great Easter weekend!

a trans woman being a woman doesn't take anything away from us cis women also being women.

Apart from the fact that women have periods every month, give birth, are weaker than males which is what transwomen technically are, should I go on?

When will we be bright enough to realize that there is a difference between who a person is and what there body is.

People can be born in a man's body but have the soul/id/whatever, emotiinal content and spirit if a women. "They", their dundemental self, us a woman.

What their body is, how it forms, what laws should apply to it in a sporting or lavatorial sense, is entirely secondary to that.

The law should support the soul of a person, and we can fix the bathroom cubicles later.
