'Trans people are actual people. We want basic human rights.'
Humman right must be respected all arround the world!
Interesting read!
from the article:
QuoteCould you explain why you, as a trans man, would be nervous using a public men's room ― even if a law were to protect your right to do so?
I'm kind of feminine, so being in a bathroom with cisgender guys is nerve-wracking. You never know what's going to happen. You never know if someone's gonna hurt you or not, especially if you're alone in a bathroom and you're small, like I am.
I've trained my body to not use restrooms for up to 10 hours.
Ouch!
QuoteI kind of pass as a male ― my friends say I do ― but I get misgendered a lot. Most people are just confused about what I identify as. I did used to wear a "he/him/his" button. That worked. A lot of the customers weren't really into that. Some assumed my button was talking about God.
. . . sometimes the absolute cluelessness of people helps . . .
