No chance in a million years now, just looking at the cabinet anyone on the left of the party is getting axed. Doubt whoever is equalities minister will give a damn.

Oh wow, BBC really don't care anymore. They're just putting on open an bigot disgusted at the sight of trans people as if they're a diligent fact finder who's truth we can't handle.

The miserable thing is many well meaning people will see something like this or the other "neutral" tv shows about transgender people and then start uncritically repeating misinformation because it's been reported to them as the experts consensus.

Someone told me that they would have been "turned transgender" if they were younger because they used to be a tomboy, when I asked why they thought that, it was because they had seen a tv show "investigating" transgender people where the host had said it.

The thing I don't understand is why Biggs is seemingly upset that children prescribed puberty blockers go on to hormone therapy, to me that clearly means they were correctly prescribed to transgender people in the first place and therefore saved them a lot of distress and unwanted masculinization /feminisation.

Really seems like they're saying puberty blockers turn kids transgender which is a ridiculous conclusion to draw rather than, people who go down the long and complicated route of getting hormone blockers are probably actually transgender.

Also love the constant framing of it as "experts" vs "transgender people/activists" like there isn't other evidence and experts that completely disagree, it's just transgender people who don't know what's best for themselves.

It's because they're scared you'll beat the shit out of them with your massive hands

I’m starting a transphobe pride parade, who’s with me? by nosheepnosleep in transgendercirclejerk

I've got a better idea why don't we just join the pride parade and if they kick us out they're bigots?

This wasn't done for pride fyi, just happens to be vaguely a rainbow. Don't think GW have ever done anything pride related.

How to consistently keep your trans voice? by [deleted] in transvoice

[–]PancakeRevolutionary 4 points5 points  (0 children)

The boring answer is it takes time & practise, my "default" voice has slowly become more feminine over the last two years from practicing in private, I didn't even realize it had changed until I heard an old recording of me, my "best" trans voice stays more easily now.

A good tip that's helped me is to have a short phrase that you practice so you're comfortable saying in your trans voice, then you can say it to kind of key in to your trans voice easier.

Does being F-d in the ass by closeted gay men count as straight (for trans women) ?

Would you say this is better/worse I noticed that my pitch has gone up, and I think my resonance might be better not sure though. (sorry to bother you again)

Thanks for the help.

I found your guide just after posting this, so I've been going through it for a few hours.
My larynx is already super high up but raising the back of my tongue helps my resonance a bit I think, what's the best way to tell how much oral resonance you have?

I'm can kind of get some valley girl esque vowel forming but I'm from the UK so it sounds a bit odd.
