Trans Woman Transferred to Male Prison After Being Raped by Cis Guard →

Trigger Warning for discussions of sexual violence, prison violence, anti-trans violence, rape apologism, and transphobia and misgendering.

Please sign this petition demanding that the the employees on duty at McDonald's be held responsible in the beating of a trans woman. →

sex-and-sensuality:

Video of the incident can be viewed by clicking the link. It is one of the most disturbing videos I’ve ever seen.

Brief rundown of video: A trans woman is repeatedly kicked, slapped, punched, dragged along the floor by her hair, and suffers several blows to the head which result in her having a grand mal seizure. The entire time the incident is taking place, the staff are clearly heard on the video encouraging the woman’s attackers, laughing, joking and doing absolutely nothing to stop the attack.

Bashings and discriminatory treatment of trans people needs to STOP. Please show your support by taking a minute out of your time to sign the petition. The people involved in the attack need to be brought to justice for their heinous crime.

J. Crew Plants the Seeds for Gender Identity  →

“…If you have no problem with the J. Crew ad, how about one in which a little boy models a sundress? What could possibly be the problem with that?

Well, how about the fact that encouraging the choosing of gender identity, rather than suggesting our children become comfortable with the ones that they got at birth, can throw our species into real psychological turmoil—not to mention crowding operating rooms with procedures to grotesquely amputate body parts?”

Thank you, Fox News, for defending your ignorant gender binary. -.-
