      That’s not the issue. She is a public figure and has shared her own photos. The issue is that Channel 7 falsely implied she regrets her transition. Channel 7 is trying to use a happily transitioned trans person as an example of someone harmed by childhood transition, and that’s slimy as hell

        I mean the whole regret* narrative is anti-trans which is slimy all by itself without slimy lies and stealing pics and shit. Fuck all these trans haters.

    Channel 7 journalist Liam Bartlett says in the promo that “children are being told they should change from boy to girl, or girl to boy, from as young as 12-years-old”.

    Oh look, bullshit trans hate.

    We should live in a world where if a child has gender dysphoria it is OK and they can express themselves however they want and be whoever they are.

    … instead of having hateful gasbags like this pour hate on them for being different.

    None of this asshole’s pearl clutching has anything to do with protecting children, it’s about rejecting and destroying people who aren’t like them. Whether LGBTQ+ or black or brown or neurodivergent or whatever else.

    I think it matters when people who aren’t hateful assholes take a stand and accept others visibly, vocally. I guess it will take a while to change and unfortunately hateful bigots are a fact of humanity but hopefully our efforts make sure there are fewer of them.
