Sorting through my late mother's clothes today, I was struck by how many items gave me simultaneous #genderEuphoria and #genderDysphoria when I tried them on. My mother was a very gender-nonconforming person. Her style blended butch and femme elements. She worked outside and liked to wear men's jeans and flannel work shirts that hid her figure. Trying them on, I would see myself in the mirror and think, "I look so much like my mother!" But then I would realize that to anyone who didn't know my mother, I would probably just look like a man. I love looking at myself and seeing my mother, but is it worth not being seen as myself by others? I don't know.

#VivianJennaWilson on Being #ElonMusk’s Estranged Daughter, Protecting #TransYouth and Taking on the #Right Online

In Teen Vogue’s special issue cover story, the estranged 20-year-old daughter of Elon #Musk talks about the 'cartoonishly evil' #Trump administration and being a young #TransWoman today.

By Ella Yurman, Photography by Andy Jackson
March 20, 2025

Excerpt:

"Wilson’s vibrant life, full of possibility, underscores the lifesaving power of #GenderAffirming care for young people. As a child, Wilson struggled through #GenderDysphoria and the attendant mental health issues it often causes. She’s horrified by the wave of #AntiTrans legislation targeting young people like her. In the US, her peers are being demonized by the right, and are left undefended by Democrats. One of Trump’s first executive orders upon retaking office attempted to bar federal funding for health care providers that perform gender-affirming care for young people under 19; multiple federal judges have blocked the order from taking effect for now."

Queensland’s puberty blockers ban has potential to cause harm, sex discrimination commissioner says

theguardian.com/australia-news

Potential? Potential? JFC, it is a certainty that much harm will come from this. Not necessarily only, but at least:

  • all these trans kids will now be forced to undergo puberty into a locked-in wrong body
  • some of those kids won't survive it, they will suicide to avoid the GD pain
  • many will thence be condemned to lives of misery & shame, trying to endure existence in a body alien to them
  • some of them as adults might somehow eventually find the financial means for all the expensive painful surgical procedures necessary, cognisant of the fact that for many, their hated physiology locked-in by the wrong puberty cannot be fully surgically corrected

I just played/read "A Circle of Charity" and am disturbed in a very good way. Genius storytelling, made very intense by the old 1990's computer interface and sound and the eary feeling how much is missing and could not be recovered.
You might want to read the trigger warnings before you play it.

If the makers are on the #Fediverse let me know so I can give them a shoutout.
A story told by how much is not told, I'd say sums it up best.

#Montana Supreme Court upholds lower court ruling that allows gender-affirming care for minors

by AMY BETH HANSON
Updated 5:00 PM EST, December 11, 2024

HELENA, Mont. (AP) — "A Montana law banning gender-affirming medical care for #transgender minors will remain temporarily blocked, the state Supreme Court ruled Wednesday, after justices unanimously agreed with a lower court judge who found the law likely violates the state’s constitutional right to privacy.

"The case against the Montana law now goes to trial before District Court Judge Jason Marks in Missoula.

"'I will never understand why my representatives are working to strip me of my rights and the rights of other transgender kids,' Phoebe Cross, a 17-year-old transgender boy and lead plaintiff, said in a statement. 'Just living as a trans teenager is difficult enough, the last thing me and my peers need is to have our rights taken away.'

"The attorney general’s office said it looks forward to defending the law, with a spokesperson noting there are recent scientific and legal developments that fall in the state’s favor. This comes as the British government on Wednesday indefinitely banned puberty blockers for children with gender dysphoria, citing an unacceptable safety risk."
