Not all people realize they are transgender during early childhood. Some people don’t know they are trans until they are 40 and beyond. Everyone is different and that’s okay.
This is a *really good* article that both handles anatomy concerns and presumes zero background makeup knowledge. Well done.
It’s amazing that the cover photo is showing both older women and people of color, something that the media consistently ignores regarding the trans community.
This is why terf ideology is inherently white supremacist- sex essentialism is not universal but a specific western ideology that has been violently imposed on other cultures during colonial expansion, and people not fitting the western binary literally exterminated.
Though there are certainly examples from western history too, like the Roman Galli for example. And, especially given how much fascists and conservatives worship Imperial Rome, I think it’s important to make clear that transfeminine individuals did in fact have an important and valued role in that society too.
