So cis people do you want to know what it's like for trans people? And maybe how bad it will get if SUFW get their way?

You might think as a cis person trying to understand being trans that you imagine being the opposite gender. That's not the way to do it...
...you are you, you know very well your gender and how to be you and as you're cis that's how it should be.

But now imagine that you have the a body that doesn't match that gender. Imagine everyone around you calls you he or she, the opposite pronouns you take for...
...granted every day. No matter how you correct them, they just laugh and smirk and say "yeah right. we know you're a man/woman".

Yes not very nice is it.

What you can't imagine is what that is like day after day, week after week, year after year, over an entire lifetime.
We know by numerous studies that we all know who we are. Just letting trans people who they are is safe for themselves and everyone else.

It doesn't effect anyone else. If someone breaks the law, the laws still apply to them, and there are lots of laws stopping people...
...for infringing on other peoples rights.

If you're worried about sporting, seriously don't. At the highest level of competition the hormone levels are rigarous and they do have an effect.

Also there are no trans Olympians. If we did have an advantage there would be many.
Go check your facts and don't give in to fear.

I just want to live my life, teaching as many students as I can and work out how the Universe and stars work. I really wish I didn't have to justify myself all the time.
