2017 is the year of transgender people not taking shit or remaining silent anymore
As an ally, lemme know what I can do to help.
heres a few ideas:
-correct people if they misgender someone (famous or a friend) and don’t let it go when they say “whatever you know what i mean”
-don’t buy into cis white womens movements like “pussy grabs back”
-everyone needs to stop saying shit about penis size making someone more or less of a man
-if you dont know someones pronouns ask or just simply use they/them until you know
-support businesses owned by transgender people (or trans bands!)
-normalize being trans dont make it some taboo
-never say shit like “oh theyre like caitlyn jenner!”
-stand up for trans people online or in real situations
-don’t out someone. before meeting a trans persons friends or family ask them who knows
-donate to trans peoples kickstarters if you can-don’t ask about a person’s deadname/genitalia
- When you’re speaking about a trans person before they came out it is still not ok to deadname or misgender them!
-be aware and self-critical of ways in which you might still enforce transphobic ideas (ie: calling menstrual products “feminine hygiene products” or using “men” and “women” when you really mean people with certain body parts/physical characteristics)
-be aware and self-critical of ways in which you might still enforce the gender binary through your language
- get in the habit of using neutral language for anyone you don’t know even when they don’t “look trans”
