Honestly we don't talk enough about how trans women are effectively segregated out of certain aspects of life such as public pools.

After some years of HRT I've been left with this deep, low simmering rage. Because what do you mean it was always this easy to be happy
I take a shot once a week, and even if that was too much, I could do it as pills, and so many of my problems just evaporated overnight.
And not one person thought to bring it up.
When I was talking about how horrifying puberty felt. When I was cutting myself. When I was in inpatient care. When I attempted suicide. When I talked for YEARS in therapy about how dissociated and trapped I felt in my body. When I felt like I never truly fixed something that was deeply wrong about me that started at puberty.
Not one person said it was a possibility. No one thought "hey, maybe this kid should go to someone trained to identify dysphoria". No one mentioned that trans people weren't some weird other group of people. It didn't have to be pressure. It didn't have to be "forcing" me. Just mentioning that trans people exist and it could be me. That it was possible and it was easy. No pushing, just laying the option out there.
HRT is treated like this last ditch option. This horrific, mutilating thing that I GUESS we can give to you if you have NO OTHER options. Because did you know it's permanent? Did you know you'll be on it for the rest of your life? Did you know the health risks? Did you know it'll make you infertile? Did you know that it's deviant? Did you know that it's an alternative lifestyle for other people?
No one said it was okay to WANT it to be permanent. Or noted that most people are reliant on the medical system in one way or the other anyways (and it's not even necessary for HRT). Or that the health risks are the normal parts of having that hormone, even in cis people of your gender. Or said it was okay to not want kids, or mention that you can just freeze gametes. Or acknowledged that the "deviant" people are just people, living their lives, that have been violently pushed out of "normal" society.
I grew up in an area that Republicans mock for being a kind of "woke central". And even then it's just. Not treated as an easy option. It was never on the table if you don't specifically already know you're going through gender stuff, and no one will help you get to that point. At which point, it's still treated like the last ditch option. Did you know you can be a feminine man? Did you know you can slap a "she/her" in your twitter bio and be done with it? Did you know that you're oh-so-valid without it? Did you know that you shouldn't take HRT? Maybe don't take HRT? Don't take HRT? Don't take HRT? Don't ta-
When you've been in it a while, HRT is the easiest, most casual thing in the world. Just pop a shot on a Saturday as part of your "everything shower" routine and you're done.
Anyways. Support trans kids always and forever.
i think they should allow everyone in the world to vote in american elections
Dont be very woried about me since i deserve all of this

that;s a post
MLB has responded to the MLBPA's new collective bargaining agreement proposal with a surprising counteroffer: the MLB owners will drop their push for a salary cap in exchange for the abolition of all sabermetric statistics and research.
"Everyone's tired of the nerd shit," MLB commissioner Rob Manfred said in a press release earlier today. "no more WAR, no more wOBA, no more wOBACON, no more BACON, no more BABIP. Hell, we're even considering getting rid of batting average."
Manfred's tenure as MLB comissioner has already overseen major changes to america's passtime, such as the addition of the pitch clock in 2023 and the automated ball-strike system in 2026. These changes were made with the intent of quickening pace of play and improving approachability to new audiences, goals that MLB's proposed statistics changes also hope to achieve, according to Manfried:
"You've got one number, that's okay. Anyone can handle one number. Two numbers is pushing it. Adding two numbers together is okay because then you've just got one number again. Now you might think that's as far as this kind of thing can go, but those geeks down at SABR just don't know when enough is enough. Those godforsaken freaks have started taking two numbers and seeing if they cant figure out how many times one can fit inside the other. They call it division. I call it perversion. Woke nonsense. They're rummaging around the number bin with their clammy nerd-hands, greedily returning for seconds, and trying to get the results of their demonic copulation sent off to Cooperstown. It has to be stopped. For the health of the game, the players, and the fans it has to be stopped.
"Players already spend too much time thinking about numbers. .342, 1.164, 2, meaningless shit like that. And it shows. You see it in their hands before they strike out swinging, in their legs when they get caught stealing, in their eyes when they make an error. Thinking about numbers makes players perform worse and if this division shit breaks containment the game is as good as dead. Innings will take an hour and box scores will resemble those of football games from a hundred years ago. It'll undoubtedly alienate the fanbase as well. Most fans will leave when they realize they need a calculator to follow the action, and we can't afford to give a TI-84 to every schmuck that walks into the ballpark.
"The solution? A return to counting stats. Hits, Strikeouts, RBI, the classics. You dont need some four-eyes with a PhD to calculate your star pitcher's number of strikeouts, you just add one to the count when he does it. Most fans and the vast majority of players can add one. Better yet, they can do it fast. No more losing games because your shortstop was busy calculating a liniar regression. Every time he's on the field all he has to think is: one. That puts his glove one inch closer to the would-be line drive. It gets his cleats one inch closer to the plate on a slide home. It wins games, it wins brains, it wins hearts.
"As an olive branch to the fiends at SABR, we're letting their boys suggest some new things to count. Number of times a player steps to the plate with dirt on him, times a player falls over, number of scrote touches, something like that. But you never know with those degenerates, they might misuse counting to create other types of stats again. So we plan to keep them on a short leash."
The MLBPA has yet to release an official response, but whatever their response is it is unlikely to be the last as negotiations are expexted to last well into the offseason and possibly threaten the 2027 regular season. "We're ready to go to war over this," said Manfred during the questions period of the press release, "We have the resources to starve out the players. We're gonna kill them."
probably should have seen it coming I guess but it's pretty fucking annoying everyone saw a conversation about "people don't understand how difficult it is clothes shopping as a trans woman" and proceeded to show just how much they don't understand it by assuming it's only about sizing and not the constant societal surveillance and inability to use the change rooms and fear of being kicked out of the story and unwillingness even for friends to recognise that there's barriers in your way and try and help you.
even people trying to commiserate with me complaining about the dumb responses assumed that it was just about sizing. and phrased it all like "you're so seen and valid". fucking christ.
wow it's almost like people don't understand how challenging it is clothes shopping even years into transition as a trans woman! who could have guessed??????
Not the strongest comparison here but
"It's incredibly difficult and challenging using public bathrooms as a transgender woman and it should be obvious why if you have paid attention to anything ever"
"Girl I feel you, welcome to womanhood. sometimes the seats are gross or someone's left something on the floor, we all experience this, you're so valid for this"
(meanwhile I'm lucky if I'm not immediately stopped upon entering)
with clothes it's like ok cool but you might notice that you are wearing womens clothes from the clothes store that you bought and were able to try on before buying and weren't called a pervert and/or pedophile over it. meanwhile I am not. so maybe this is not actually "something all women experience" or just about sizing yes?
hope this isn't derailing but i think that this is heavily shaped by this condescending attitude people have about trans women's womanhood. they treat us like little girls discovering every aspect of being a woman instead of understanding us as adults who can have fully formed and informed opinions and analysis about our lived experience.
folks assume we have everything to learn about being women, because the idea that they would have anything to learn from us about it or about being a trans woman is simply too ridiculous to even cross their mind.
