Please keep cissplaining the trans civil rights movement to a well-known trans activist.

Please don't be dismissive. I'm not being dismissive or disrespectful. POC have had the same fights. We have been there.

Please stop placing the emotional and physical burden on trans people who are already being crushed by the weight of the system.

The struggle for trans rights and the struggle for racial justice are only superficially similar.

You'll notice the only party I blamed were the white patriarchy. I'm said I will stand beside you to help you fight for rights. Not blaming.

Trans people make up 1/160th of the population. That's almost 2 orders of magnitude smaller than the POC population.

I’m curious about that 1/160 figure. Where does that come from?
