Emotional HRT changes that you (probably) DON'T know about! (Pt 2)

Hormone Replacement Therapy (HRT) is one of the MOST crucial and LEAST understood aspects of transition. Most TERFy people don't even seem to know or understand THAT we (trans people) take hormones, let alone what they DO to our bodies and our minds. They insist that we're "men wearing a dress & makeup" while completely overlooking the RADICAL changes that our bodies undergo due to feminizing hormones. From breast growth to fat redistribution to LITERAL, MEASURABLE changes to the shape of our brains... this episode is gonna open your minds to the vast and misunderstood world of HRT.

Ability to penetrate? Not anymore! Today, we're mainly focusing on the EMOTIONAL, MENTAL, and SPIRITUAL changes that occur when we go on HRT. Our mental health improves dramatically, and we're literally capable of feeling and expressing NEW emotions that we never previously knew existed! We're gonna walk you through all of it today. So... what *DOES* HRT do to trans people?

What transphobes DON'T understand about TRANS people (Part 1)

Cis people -- mainly the transphobic ones (some "allies" as well) -- are often fed propaganda about trans people and how transition works, so we wanted to set the record straight (gay). We explain a number of misconceptions about transition and the early life of trans people, health discrimination, the weird "oppression olympics" game that people play, why it's so hard for people to wrap their heads around what it's like to be trans, and how privilege plays into all of it!

First, we explore HOW someone becomes a TERF using Laura's real experience having almost been sucked down that pipeline online, then we explain a number of misconceptions about transition: the early life of trans people, health discrimination, the weird "oppression olympics" game that people play, why it's so hard for people to wrap their heads around what it's like to be trans, p*nis envy, and how privilege plays into all of it!

Were Trans Women socialized as MEN??

TERFs love to say that Trans Women can't be "real women" because they were "socialized as men," or "experienced male privilege," so we're here to explore how socialization plays into gender and self-identity and whether or not it plays any role in the way that trans women exist!

In this episode, we break down FIVE (5!) different TERFy ideas about how trans women are "socialized male," including that they "think like men," "didn't experience sexualization as a child," experienced "male socialization," enjoyed "male privilege," and never had to suffer the agonies of a period. Is there ANY truth to their ideas, or is it just transphobia all the way down??

This bill will ERASE LGBTQ+ people online!

KOSA, or the Kids Online Safety Act, is a secret, nefarious conservative plot to hand the government the power to CENSOR any content they deem to be "dangerous" to children. As we all know, that includes anything LGBTQIA2S+, and the Heritage Foundation has ALREADY stated that they will also use this bill, if it passes, to BLOCK information about birth control / reproductive health information. It's all-hands on deck as we try to topple this bill before it changes the internet forever!

They're pretending it's going to "limit the powers of the tech companies," but the bill is being backed by Sam Altman, Elon Musk, Zuckerberg, Apple, Meta, and every big tech company... which mneans it isn't going to be a sacrifice for them at all, and will in fact grant them the powers to limit our access to knowledge and the freedom of speech as we know it. The Heritage Foundation has ALREADY stated that they will also use this bill, if it passes, to BLOCK information about birth control / reproductive health information, and the conservatives have been fighting tooth-and-nail to block the word "transgender" from appearing anywhere on the internet at all! It's all-hands on deck as we try to topple this bill before it changes the internet forever... so CALL YOUR REPS and let's block this thing before we lose even more freedom than we already have!!
