Found out about this late last night. If anyone can make it please attend. We need to pack the room with trans people and our allies. We need to make it clear that you don't attack our trans youth siblings. They are not a pawn for political gains. They are not people to be afraid of. Everything they state in this is a lie. It's time to educate the conservative, religious right with real facts and information. Its time to stop the lies and hatred. What do trans youth want to do in a bathroom? Use the facilities. They aren't looking to attack girls in the bathroom. They aren't trying to intimidate, scare or bully anyone. Some how the right has become obsessed with kids and teens ge****ls. Maybe we should ask them why. Do they know that biological s*x is so much more complicated than xx and xy. They chose to ignore scientists, doctors and therapists. The very people who are experts in trans Healthcare.
If you can't make it I understand. Please pass the word around. I'll be there to give our trabs youth a voice. To represent this group. I'll be there as an ordained minister. I'll be there as an out, proud transgender woman.

Tuesday morning at 8 their is a protest at the State School Board. It is against the hateful and harmful proposed idea that Trans students must be outed to their parents, they must use school facilities of their assigned birth gender and to ban trans girls from playing sports. This is once again an extremist attempt to erase trans people. It's as usual based on misinformation and lies.
We need to let them know that this is not how to treat Trans youth. That this can cause more trauma,mental health issues and possibly death to our trans youth. This goes against their constitutional rights to life, liberty and pursuit of happiness. Once again they are using trans youth a as a political pawn to stir up the religious, right voting base. Trans youth are not harming anyone by being their authentic, true self. The only thing trans youth want and need is the same as cis youth. Love, a place to live, a quality education, a safe place to talk, food and competent medical care. Is that really too much to ask for?

Are people interested in meetings? I've had nobody respond and wondering if this group should continue. We won't be in the parade this year or have a booth. I don't know if I'm working that weekend yet. I don't want to be the only person to show up.

Today is Trans Visibility day. It's a day to celebrate what trans folx have accomplished this past year. It's about being visible so that people see that we are no different than the cisgender population. This year I will be celebrating in Columbus with T-Talks and TransOhio. I'll be one of 7 speakers at the OSU student union. I'm so honored to be part of the amazing speakers tonight. Today and everyday let trans folx know that you love, support them and are a safe person for them. Speak out when you hear anti-trans speech. We need our allies to be that when we aren't around.

I will start meetings back up on March 13th. If interested message here and I'll give you the info.

I'm seriously considering ending this group. I've had little to no input from the community. Nobody has shown interest in this group continuing. If people are interested in it continuing I need to know. As it is right now I see no reason to start group back up..
