Is being trangender really at risk in USA ?

[warlockmaker]

I have been advised by my family in California that its safe but not so in other states. I have been assured that as a post op female with female ID  and pass as female 100% that i would not have any problems. EXCEPT as a well know tg female and a strong advocate and should some hateful tg person, google my name you will get the full story. Google Bobbie Huthart and you will understand my reluctance to enter the USA.

Bobbie, you look and sound 100% female. No-one basing it on that would ever think otherwise. You're more female-looking than 90% of other cis-born females I've met, and the remaining 10% are merely your equal in feminine traits.

However, you're absolutely right. If anyone looks into your backstory you could be in trouble in the US. I wouldn't go there in your position, no matter how gorgeous you look at the Immigration counter.

What a mad, crazy, world we live in right now.

AL, AR, AZ, FL, GA, ID, IN, KS, KY, LA, MO, MS, MT, NC, ND, NE, OH, OK, SC, SD, TN, TX, WV, WY.

This doesn't mean that those less riskier states are totally free of bias.

Where ever the human spirit exists "incidents will happen"!

But compared to some rural or politically hostile states, New York and California are probably in one of the safest pockets of the country for being openly transgender.

Ahem. ----> #2, Colorado!

Cheaper than New York or California. And we have the Rocky Mountains.
