Please sign and share this petition on social media!

A Change.org petition was created today, which calls for social networks to do a better job protecting their transgender users from Transphobia.

While many of these social networks have policies which state similar goals, they are frequently not enforced or even ignored outright even when instances of explicit transphobia are reported to them by the transgender members of their networks; this is something that must change.

I want to bump this up again.
Please consider signing this!

I will point out that Twitter has finally banned misgendering and Deadnaming. I can't say this petition had anything to do with it, but I like to think so.

Now it's time to get facebook to add protections for transgender people, and to also ban the harmful items in this petition.

I agree Susan, I've heard from transgender FB friends that because the term transgender is associated with their profile in some way, they have been bombarded by negative posts that the algorithm says you may want to see.

Disgusting!
