  • Welcome, and congrats on navigating NHS!

    As for navigating trans culture, it can be quite alienating sometimes as an older trans person who grew up with a very different exposure to gender diversity. But what you’re seeing are the new generations, navigating gender diverse identities, but with more freedom than you or I were ever afforded. We missed out on our own queer culture, because it mostly wasn’t allowed to exist, and when it did, it existed on the terms of a queerphobic society. The folk following us aren’t free from that queerphobia either, but they’re less defined and constrained by it.

    I think all we can do is try and be happy that we have a culture at all, even if it’s sometimes an odd fit for those of us that predate it















  • You’re the only person to mention trans people in this thread. It’s got nothing to do with trans folk…

    decided this is a hateful post based on prior comments without watching the video.

    I had to watch the video to see her dog whistle.

    And the whole thing about red flag/dog whistle comments is that they’re designed to seem like nothing to people who don’t recognise them. You not recognising a dog whistle doesn’t mean it isn’t one…

    The fact that she shouts out another steamer that was banned from twitch for bigotry isn’t a co-incidence. It’s a red flag for a reason
