... as I was doing my morning reading. Definitely something for some deep thinking, and reflection. "The misconception of equating ease of life with βpassingβ must be dismantled in our culture. The work begins by each of us recognizing that cis people are not more valuable or legitimate and that trans people who blend as cis are not more valuable or legitimate. We must recognize, discuss, and dismantle this hierarchy that polices bodies and values certain ones over others. We must recognize that we all have different experiences of oppression and privilege, and I recognize that my ability to blend as cis is one conditional privilege that does not negate the fact that I experience the world as a trans woman (with my own fears, insecurities, and body-image issues) no matter how attractive people may think I am." - Janet Mock

Everyone deserves to be treated with respectΒ
People just really don't read back into history of different cultures and beliefs . As new powers of be take over , rules and laws change to the mess we have nowΒ
Thanks for the useful information.
