[trans and nonbinary people are just people like you and me ...]


In light of a lot of misinformation going around about trans and non-binary people, I thought I'd share a few key articles providing balanced perspectives. For the first one, I've also extracted the "quick read" section: 


Quick Read Trans and nonbinary people are just people

  •   "Anti-trans legislation is largely based on misinformation and myths.  
  •     Kids know their gender identity as early as 3. 
  •     Gender-affirming care does not typically involve surgery under age 18. 
  •     Being trans or nonbinary is not “trendy,” and most people who transition will not detransition.  
  •     Anti-trans sports bans are not based on scientific research.  
  •     Sex is not a binary and being trans is not a mental illness.  
  •     Trans and nonbinary people have a right to live and access necessary gender-affirming medical care."
