In commemoration of the upcoming Transgender Day of Visibility (TDOV), President Joe Biden issued a statement praising trans people’s contributions to society and describing actions his administration has taken to counter transphobic bullying and extremism. Additionally, many members of Biden’s Department of Health and Human Services (HHS) also issued their own statements affirming that community health depends on supporting trans people too.

“Transgender Americans are part of the fabric of our Nation,” Biden wrote in his statement. “Whether serving their communities or in the military, raising families or running businesses, they help America thrive. They deserve, and are entitled to, the same rights and freedoms as every other American, including the most fundamental freedom to be their true selves.”

      genetic men is not a widely used term by anyone except terfs. find me a lgbtq org or style guide that suggests that terminology if you can, but you can’t. you’ll definitely find orgs that tell you not to use that term.

              referring to people as genetic men is offensive. using specific terms is not.

              “people who have undergone a testosterone dominant puberty” would be accurate to what you’re referring to. but you kept bringing up the penis which is completely irrelevant, and just a transphobic red flag

              I said this ages ago and you ignored it bc you’re a terf asshole
