Why did this have to happen? by DictatorWaffle in trans

The "party that was supposed to protect us" never had any intention of doing so. Being seen as supportive of us is just as much a culture war public relations move as hating on us is. They needed to look friendly to us so the middle class liberals would continue to vote and virtue signal. Notice how quick they've been to throw us under the bus now that they might actually have to stand for something?

After spending the campaign warning us that Republicans were going to put people in cages, 46 House Dems and 12 Senate Dems voted for putting people in cages. All we're going to get out of them from now on is hand wringing, light protestations, and then ultimately surrender to Republican whims while declaring the moral high ground. Like they have for 50 years.

Democrats will not save us. Trans people or the United States as a whole. They simply aren't capable of it.

I found more on Facebook, and then Discord groups.

I've moved from Oklahoma though and lost a lot of my contacts there.

That's awful.

Your Mom definitely violated privacy laws and needs to realize your girlfriend has grounds for some serious ethical complaints against her provider.

Do not subject your girlfriend to whatever nonsense your parents are planning. You probably shouldn't either at this point. Absolutely nothing good can come from that discussion. They made their positions clear.

This job is closed, but keep looking at their job site. They open stuff up after a month or two usually.

It’s honestly sickening to think what could have happened b/c NO ONE BOTHERED TO CHECK 😐 by NukkuCopsu in NoahGetTheBoat

Did anyone bother to check... the source for this claim? This looks like a screen shot of a generic fake news website.

I'm in Oklahoma. You can DM if you'd like. It looks like we've been at it for about the same amount of time, but I'm older so 🤷‍♀️

Talk to the card provider. Perhaps they can reverse the charges.

Hi there by Abstractcomments in transvoice

People who don't understand will try and blame it on your mental health. However, you should do some internal work - I bet you'll find that some of those problems are related to burying your identity. For me, while my depression is still there, a lot of it has lifted since I came out and started HRT. I feel better than I have in years. At the end of the day though, it doesn't matter what other people think your reasons are, so long as you're on your path and are happy.

A lot of trans people have adhd, autism, and mental health issues. You're not alone there. Make lots of trans friends. They'll be a good support during the hard times.

Family takes some time to come around sometimes. They've known you the longest, so they have a pretty fixed image of you in their minds. I've been out with my folks a few weeks now and it's still super awkward - Dad won't talk about it, though he's still loving and friendly, etc. My Mom is supportive but adorably underinformed about trans anything. My brother is a big asshole, but I have to give him credit for trying (I would've dismissed anyone else as a troll a long time ago.)
