Identifying as trans offered my daughter for the first time a huge freedom of being recognized for her inner tumult--while I validated her fully before I now can see there was so much more to her story of quiet strength--for that reason, it's good she declared yet more to do

So true. Just read a thread where someone’s asked a politician’s opinion on women’s rights under the equality act, to be told it was a “leading question.” It was a very succinct, clear question. People are being told not to question anything but their own lives & belief in sex!

The validation element IS interesting--detrans denial is fine; trans questioning is hate ... yes a contradiction. I do not hate any one, least of all my beautiful daughter, and questioning is part of having a brain, lol

Was just listening to the @BenjaminABoyce interview with Ben/GNCcentric who said just that.

Yep. It does seem that some lived experiences are ascribed greater value than others. Always seems like a real waste of opportunity to learn. You know, even your mum has a lived experience around gender...

Double standards
