CW: brief mentions of suicidality and self-harm, transphobia
Happy Pride Month y'all! I figured this was the perfect time to talk about the "trans panic" and how transphobes use really bad excuses to justify their bigotry. I break down the arguments behind trans people in women's sports, bathroom bills, and gender-affirming care, as well as talk about the psychological consequences of transphobia.
