If trans people make you uncomfortable, it's because you've existed in a bubble of homogeneity for so long the concept of human variation jars your little mind. It probably seems safe in that little bubble, but it's like existing in a fishtank instead of an ocean. 🏳️‍⚧️🏳️‍🌈 #Trans

I'm a trans woman and transitioning was 100% the right decision for me. I've never been happier. I've never felt so stable for so long. My life is full of purpose and joy where there once was sadness and detachment. Transitioning is life saving care for many, myself included.🏳️‍⚧️

Do cis people choose their gender or does Jesus? Do people watch Fox "News" because they're bigots, or are they bigots because they watch it? When transphobes use all caps is it because they like the attention of trans people online or are they furiously masturbating?

Trans people aren't a new fad. I remember my first notions I was trans when I was 5. That was 41 years ago, before the internet, before the majority of information on trans people had even been the publics radar. What is new? We don't reject and abuse people who are different.

Being trans is not a political statement. Being trans is not a religion. Being trans is not an ideology. Being trans isn't a choice. Being honest is a choice. Being kind is a choice. Trying to heal, to feel whole, and to be happy is a choice anyone should be able to understand.

@deesnider I think it's perhaps disappointing because the statement is in opposition to parents rushing kids through transition or somehow pressuring them to do so against their wishes. It's quite the opposite that happens so defending a strawman argument is a bad look for an ally.
