I've been thinking a lot about anti-trans conversion practices and gender identity change efforts and how they include conversion therapy but also include so many other more informal interactions between trans people and other people who try to get us to change who we are.

And of course this also applies to conversion practices and homophobic culture targeting gay and queer people too. We need to stand in solidarity with each other against all conversion practices and oppressive cultures that can't accept us as we are.

So much transphobia manifests as conversion practices and other efforts to change who we are "for our own good". They'll call it "therapy", "feminism", even "love". It's abuse, it's psychological torture and oppression. We need to name it for what it is so we can uproot it.
