The Privilege of Passing: Embracing Diversity in Transition
(www.transvitae.com)
The Lemmy place to discuss the news and experiences of transgender people.
Rules:
Keep discussions civil.
Arguments against transgender rights will be removed.
No bigotry is allowed - including transphobia, homophobia, speciesism, racism, sexism, classism, ableism, castism, or xenophobia.
The article makes some great points, and what Brianna said to the author is awful.
I will say, though, as a passing and somewhat conforming guy, I really do not like the increased visibility of trans people over the past decade. I feel more vulnerable and less confident in my passing. I miss when me being trans couldn't have possibly crossed someone's mind, because people weren't 'on the lookout'/obsessing over us.
