    Anti-trans legislation is an attack on the safety and well-being of trans youth. Trans youth in Texas should be able to focus on school, spending time with friends, having fun playing sports, and generally just being kids.

    Yes!! In a world where so many trans people lose familial support after coming out, it's extra beautiful to hear stories of parents who just want to show support and love for their trans and non-binary children 🏳️‍⚧️

    There is no "right way" to be trans, and trans existence doesn't—and shouldn't be expected to—play by cis, binary rules. All trans and non-binary people are valid, simply by merit of recognizing themselves as trans or non-binary💗
