If You Are Or Know A Trans Person Living In England, Please Read This!
Our Prime Minister, Rishi Sunak, is reportedly planning to 'review and revise' The Equality Act 2010, and plans to remove legal protections for transgender people living in England, claiming to "make it clear that sex means biological sex rather than gender".
If this becomes reality, trans people will be denied access to same-sex spaces, including bathrooms, hospital wards, shelters and safe houses. Trans people will not have a legal right to go into these spaces, meaning they will not only be at greater risk of discrimination but also legal trouble too.
If these protections are removed from The Equality Act, trans people will be forced to declare their Assigned Gender At Birth as their gender identity in these situations for their own safety.
Sunak has been vocal about his transphobia in the past. If this is approved, more of our rights may be taken away in the future.
There are multiple news articles reporting this topic, if you wish to read them.
Please, sign petitions to help stop this from happening. There are currently 2 on Change.org as I'm writing this:
"Stop Rishi Sunak scrapping Transgender rights"
"Stop Rishi's trans-rights reforming"
Even if this doesn't directly affect you, please help the ones that it does. Trans people are already discriminated against daily just for living their lives, please help us to stop Rishi Sunak from making it worse.

Alright, so. I can vouch for this guy, he's my best friend, uh. Anything helps.
I'll spare you all her story, and while times are tight, I'd appreciate this being spread, if nothing else.
If you want recompense, I'll draw things for you. Or edit already written work. If there is something else you'd like, feel free to negotiate.
anyone of any gender or identity can use whatever pronouns they want. trans men can use she/her, trans women can use he/him, nonbinary people don't have to use they/them or neopronouns, genderfluid people don't have to alternate pronouns, anyone can use they/them, it/its, ze/hir, xe/xem or neopronouns, cishet people can use whatever pronouns they want. anyone can use whatever pronouns they want
pronouns are not locked or tied to genders. destroy the binary in your mind that dictates that pronouns have an assigned gender, presentation, or identity. they don't. the only thing a pronoun set means about you is that you like to use those pronouns. have fun, be yourself
Actually, no, about that last anon - transmasc culture is accepting all transmasc people, regardless of the transition they have, if they don't transition or if they do it socially or only medically or ANYTHING. Transmasc culture is accepting all trans men and transmasculine people. Transmasc culture is standing behind your brothers and siblings, regardless of pronouns, appearance, disability, race, money, or the way they present their gender.
Transmasc culture is being masculine or androgynous or feminine. Being all of them. Breaking gender stereotypes. And transmasc culture is saying a big fuck you to the people who want you to be masculine so they can demonize you like a cis man despite being trans, or saying a big fuck you to the people who want you to be feminine so they can call you 'men-lite'.
You're a full ass person, man or nonbinary man or man-adjacent, and you DESERVE to be RESPECTED like a whole ass fucking person.
Transmasc culture is standing with YOU.
Howdy y’all, It’s been awhile since I’ve updated my gofundme or talked about it for a myriad of reasons but finally found the time and spoons to sit down and do it. I hate to post it at all but I could still very much use any support I can get, and wanted to give my thanks for all of the attention and support I’ve gotten up to this point. Any interaction on this post is super appreciated, thank y’all so much.
In this post i will be coining a new term for the aromantic community;;

Hello! I'm also aplatonic and would be more than happy to answer some questions!
Hey, aplatonic people! I want to write an aplatonic character, but I'm not sure what it's quite like since I'm only aromantic. If anyone out there is chill with answering some questions!
Hey y’all--its me again. Soooo things have gotten Rough since my last post. To give some context: I’ve moved states to live with my partner about 2 months ago and, while I now have a job, doesn't cover anything substantial. A job I was waiting on getting hired for (and would have fixed a lot of issues) decided to go with someone else.
I am currently on the job hunt once again for something that can afford literally basic survival and not-being-houseless needs.
For those who have the ability to give a poor trans girl some money--have a link:
Only have a v3nmo: @leeleecreative
I have a pinned post about other services I can give if you'd like to get some shitty art/voice over work for your money. Alternatively, if any other trans people know of some resources I can reach out to, I'd appreciate that immensely as well.
Thanks y'all, I appreciate you reading this.

Me and my fiance are both Queer adults living with my family in Panaca, NV and we need to move somewhere else.
I am Agender Transmasc and Gay Leaning. My fiance is a Trans man, Pansexual, and Indigenous. We are both Disabled- (I have Autism, Depression, Anxiety, DID) (He has Autism, OCD, DID, Depression, Anxiety, and is also physically disabled (needs a cane or crutches, wrist and ankle braces, and medical lotion) Panaca is 5 minutes away from a self promoted “correction facility” and is full of people who genuinely want to send queers to them. Genuinely want queers, poc, disabled people to not have rights. We are NOT safe living here. We are in danger every day. We do not want to end up dead in the streets. We have friends in Oregon and plan on moving into an apartment with them, we would have people we trust around us and would be in a safer place for us. Me and my fiance can be ourselves, live our own lives. The sooner we can get the money, the sooner we can move to somewhere safer for us. The money would cover a U-hual, Two months of rent, and any food and bills while we search for jobs. I will forever be grateful. Any amount helps us! Thank you to everyone who donates!
