Happy International Women's Day! ♀️

Today I helped someone who shared a similar name to me. I got a sense that she was a very patient and kind person. It was one of the highlights of my day to share a laugh with this woman who seemed like a friend on the other side of the world. Always be kind when you can, you never know how much positivity can spread.

As an American transgender woman, I feel pretty shitty on this International Women's Day. My government is aggressively telling the world that people like me don't belong and should not be celebrated or even acknowledged. They are backing that up with policy changes, erasing us from history, and using language that paints us as deceitful predators.
I can't go back. I won't go back.
I won't give up either.
But I'm still scared and powerless.

If you have a transgender woman in your life as family, friend, or acquaintance, please take a moment to remind them that they matter and that their identify is valid.
It could save a life.

Trans women are women.

But you don't have to agree with me on that to know that demonizing people for a harmless characteristic, telling the public they are an "enemy within," and passing highly targeted legislation intended to deny them access to public life is immoral, undemocratic, and dangerous to us all.

Hard reading. But as a hockey fan, I’m big enough to tough it out. Big enough to learn some uncomfortable things. Big enough & tough enough to hear what women have to say.
