Sierra Mist? Did you just say that cause it's what's in your house, you white trash bitch?

Gotta say that's a really dumb way to kill yourself. I mean if it doesn't work you're probably gonna have to give up smoking.

Trolls on the internet have tricked them into thinking cis women are trans and the TERFs will just go off about how they are obviously men, saying the most cruel sh*t about their appearance and how they behave, once they believe someone is a man they automatically see everything about that person as masculine and therefore threatening, trans women have been getting a kick out of trolling the sh*t out of them, posting pictures of famous cis women and claiming it's them, it's hilarious how easily TERFs fall for it. It's baffling to me how they don't see the obvious severe damage that gender policing women's spaces would cause, have you seen what the average TERF looks like? They would fail their own test. |

That's why I take it so personally, even though I'm cis. I used to get **** about being masculine from sexist boys, I really don't need feminists doing that too

Transphobic sentiment is growing along with right wing extremism in general, propaganda and misinformation on the internet has absolutely been a big part of this and now transphobic bills are being passed at an alarming rate across America, I'm a trans woman living in a bumf*ck Tennessee town, I fear for my safety more than ever. To put this as kindly as possible, please do not condescend to me and tell me that people saying I have no right to exist is something trivial. Yes I'm aware that at end of the day banning a few dipsh*ts on social media who will just fall back on their burner accounts doesn't really amount to much, but I am someone with no power, voting doesn't do jack sh*t if you live in a gerrymandered red state, holding people accountable for spreading hate on the internet is essentially the only thing I can do. It's funny actually, hate and abuse personally directed at me in the "real" world doesn't affect me as much, a few days ago my mom called me an ugly man in a dress and I hate my mom so who cares? I don't. It doesn't bother me anywhere near as much as the transphobia being pushed in the media and the internet, because that sh*t has far greater reach and will effect a lot more people. Ignoring the spread of fear and hate is enabling it, period. |

I don't even have the money or resources to move out of state. |
Wasn’t sure I could get away with placing this in the classical music section so I’ve dumped it here. I confess I was what could be described as an opera queen in my youth. We’d even have weekends where we played the entire Wagner Ring Cycle over a weekend. Couldn’t put myself through that in my dotage and in fact now find most of Wagner’s opera overblown, long winded and hysterical.
Anyhow, here’s an article I stumbled across that discusses the apparently now out of fashion phenomena of the ‘Opera Queen’. https://www.newyorker.com/culture/cu...e-of-gay-opera |

What a missed opportunity. :/ |
An aspect of the various versions of Queer as Folk that’s always annoyed me is the almost complete avoidance of the many males who indulge in same sex relations in total secrecy, most of them married to females of our species. Not that many of this category would willingly admit to being bi-sexual, let alone gay just like many millions of men over the ages who during wartime have ‘had a bit on the side’ .

I'm gonna bump this thread because all due respect to Trollheart people are gonna mistake his thread for one that's about the band Rainbow.
Anyway does anyone have some resources they can share with me about getting the hell out of my sh*tshole state and/or country if push comes to shove? Trump just said he's going to make trans people illegal if he gets reelected so yeah that's not great. I am legitimately terrified especially because I JUST started HRT and I'm not going back. I'm trying to stay hopeful but I need to plan for the worst case scenario regardless, so any info you can provide me will be greatly appreciated. |
I guess the best I could come up with would be to look for the closest Blue State. Maybe Michigan? More likely my home state of Maryland. I'm not sure what we offer in terms of transgendered medicine, but Baltimore has an amazing hospital system. It's also quite easy to get health insurance through the Maryland Health Exchange.
Of course, if Trump or Desantis do get elected and they have a right wing congress (and a Republican Senate is quite likely given the numbers), well, I guess you have to try for Canada or maybe Europe. |
I live in Tennessee so the closest blue state for me would be Illinois, which is really only blue because of Chicago so that's obviously where I'd want to be.
Cost of living there is extremely high, my brother lived there for a little while and he was only able to do that because he had someone to stay with. |
I live in southern Wisconsin, my city is very liberal on the whole but the state itself has always been very purple and has leaned red in the recent election unfortunately. It's cheaper than living in Chicago by a lot though.
I was able to get my HRT covered by Medicaid. I don't know the details of your insurance situation and whether or not yours will be. It was very easy to get hormones here, I just walked into the clinic. We can only hope other countries open up trans refugee programs in the event of a nationwide ban, I'm terrified as well. |
Medicaid covers mine which I only recently learned about, apparently it's been a thing for 9 years and I had no idea.
If medicaid stops covering it then that would suck ass because I could be paying a hundred bucks a month, that's a question I need to ask the pharmacist. However if the government prohibits healthcare providers from making new prescriptions for hormones then that's where things would get really f*cked. The government would basically be forcing me to quit HRT cold turkey which is not just something I want to avoid at any cost, it's also extremely f*cking dangerous and potentially deadly. If Republicans pass such legislation they should face legal consequences for endangering countless lives for no f*cking reason other than to signal their inhuman cruelty. If things get that bad and god forbid I'm not able to move well if you know someone who can hook me up with some *ahem* mail delivery service then please hook me up in the PMs. |

Hell, come to Ireland: we've got a decent trans scene going here, and were the first country IN THE WORLD to approve official same-sex marriage. Also, we have the odd drink from time to time. |

That's the worst case scenario, and so far most laws focus solely on minors, but I don't trust that will remain the case. You give republicans an inch, they'll take a mile. |
