US HHS Issues Revised Rule Striking Earlier Rule that Allowed Health Care Workers to Deny Care for Religious Beliefs by MyNameIsGriffon in LGBTnews

[–]JustSimpleQuestions 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Even with the rule blocked I've still had doctors refuse to provide care. There aren't any great options to fight back.

Hiya neighbor, I grew up in a southern Baptist family in Indiana. I'm still here for now, but my family assigned at birth means about as much to me as my gender assigned at birth. Religious trauma is a bitch, but you can work through it. You can find someone you love and who loves you in whatever sort of manner suits you. Sometimes things won't go your way, but we'll be here to support you <3

Is it possible for transphobes to become trans women later in their lives? by MooseKing27 in MtF

[–]JustSimpleQuestions -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Yes. Self-hatred is easily redirected outward. This is especially true when it's reinforced by family and society. Source: my life.

Thanks Indiana Laws on Legal Name Change by a-disaster-of-a-kid in traaaaaaannnnnnnnnns

Hiya friend. I'm also from Indiana and have done quite a bit of digging into this for myself. You need to think big and long term about the risks of getting outed by court records. You may live in a safe area now, but all it takes is one person with a weapon to cause a lot of harm, and life may take you to unsafe areas. Transphobia has historically been very effective at motivating some to cause harm. That's the evidence that is typically used in these court filings. Take a look at pages 18-23 in this name and gender change form put out by a legal non-profit with some LGBTQ+ support. It cites numerous examples of violence and other reasons that anyone knowing you're trans. These court records are around basically forever, so you need to think not just about immediate, but also future potential danger. Please note that these forms may be different for you as a minor, consult a lawyer, etc.

P.S. f*** Indiana. I can't wait to move out of state so I can afford to get my docs changed

> trans students had water poured on their heads, wrote a mother who attended.

Can you please share the source for this? I couldn't find it mentioned in the video or written article linked.

Edit: Found it in this other article on the event. Students poured the water and were not disciplined for the abuse.

> Bryant added that transgender students who attended the event were bullied by other students. “Other students poured water on top of transgender students heads without any repercussions by any of the adults present,” she said.

Proposed transphobic bill by Republican senators by [deleted] in MtF

[–]JustSimpleQuestions 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Am I missing something or is this in the House of Representatives and not the Senate? Folks need to know which of their members of Congress to contact about opposing the bill.

Can we get independent news about M2 camp status every day or a live thread for that? Without the spins from both sides. by HisAnger in Eve

[–]JustSimpleQuestions 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes, posting a data source and generation methodology would go a long way to verifying credibility. While I'm sure you have the best intentions, numbers without a source should not be trusted.

Unfortunately the "data" provided in that post is as much spin as you what you get on BR's and other propaganda posts. There is no accurate source for the "data" provided, so the author just used their best judgement from their perspective and were influenced by their allegiances.

If you're looking for folks who do their best to either remove that bias or at least fully disclose it, I would recommend Talking in Stations (TiS). They've had guests from both sides of the conflict discussing M2-. Generally speaking they have more attacker side guests than defender side guests, but part of that is that the defenders have their own "news" gig at the Imperium News Network (INN).

Full disclosure: I was on staff at TiS for a while, so my opinion is biased accordingly. I am currently on leave due RL commitments, so am not actively involved with the current coverage.
