Transphobes get upset about trans people pointing out our place in history all the time. Reasons for this vary, but, in my opinion, it’s often linked to certain narratives which are common amongst the anti-trans crowd. One such narrative is the idea that modern trans people are an entirely distinct and separate group from previous groups of trans people. Narratives like this allow the transphobe to attempt to maintain that they are not transphobic by having an imagined group of trans people they support to contrast with the modern group of trans people they oppose. JK Rowling herself has engaged in this via her “I will march with you if you’re oppressed” tweets. An attempt to maintain the idea she is not transphobic on the inhale while using the exhale to later call prominent transgender women “men cosplaying fantasies of women” on social media. Another tactic is to try and shift the blame for why a trans person or trans people may have been targeted away from their transness and onto something else. In my view, JK Rowling does this when she suggests that any damages to trans people, healthcare and research were incidental as the real target was gay people. This tactic is grimly obvious when looking at the transphobic response to murdered trans people, especially murdered trans women of colour in the US. These women often have a history of sex work and drug use – two very common avenues for bigots to shift the blame to while ignoring how those intersections of race and gender disproportionately result in survival sex work. We even saw attempts to minimise the consequences of transphobia  surrounding the trial for the murderers of Brianna Ghey here in the UK with outlets quick to claim hate crime had been dismissed. The purpose of this tactic is usually to maintain separation between anti-trans hostility and anti-trans violence. The transphobe needs to maintain that their beliefs are but mere beliefs that couldn’t hurt anyone in isolation. But they are not in isolation. They form part of a much larger picture which includes decades of anti-trans abuses, a wholesale denial and erasure of the existence of trans people and the world’s most famous author calling for doctors supporting trans youth to face charges. This kind of rhetoric only has one outcome in my opinion. One we’ve been able to measure as we watch the statistics regarding hate crimes against trans people continue to rise at a staggering rate. Another statistic transphobes have also worked, and failed, at waving away. But they don’t really need to convince you or me, they only need to convince themselves – and that’s a low bar to get over.

THE ADLER TWINS Matt for @wrixie CHERISHING CHERRY Max for @bloomingkyras GEM'S for GEMMA STONE

In the big city of San-Myshuno, the Adler twins spent their childhood. From very moment they were born, the boys were inseparable. But nothing could be that easy and nice, their rivalry would surface from time to time. Max Adler (personal trainer) is the embodiment of confidence. He is self-assured big boy full of boundless energy and love for physical activity. Whether he was sprinting through the neighborhood or scaling trees with ease, Max approached life with his own style and determination. However, lurking beneath his confident exterior was a hint of jealousy. Especially when it was about the matters of the heart. Meanwhile, Matt Adler (visual artist) is the creative soul. His heart forever tuned to the rhythm of melodies and art. As a music lover, Matt could often be found lost in his own music hobby, his fingers dancing across piano keys or strumming a guitar with finesse. On other days, he painted all kinds of pictures, depending on the inspiration. Yet, his self-absorbed tendencies sometimes led him to overlook the needs of those around him, lost in his own artistic world. The twins stumbled upon an opportunity that would change their lives forever - they both decided to apply for a bachelorette challenge. Matt wants to win the heart of amazing Cherry and stunning Gemma caught Max's eye. Will they succeed or fail on their paths of love?... Fun fact: the boys got similar tattoos, earrings and they are both Scorpio. :)

I do not have the expertise or knowledge to join in the chorus of people who are accusing JK Rowling of Holocaust denial. I’ve done part 1) of my goals with this piece and explained why people are making the accusation; she was objectively wrong about a historical fact in which the Nazis burnt research into trans healthcare. But any analysis as to whether this constitutes Holocaust denialism is, in my view, best left to the experts in that field. My expertise is in transphobia and the way it operates. I think JK Rowling’s social media activity over the last two days is an interesting case study into how bigotry constantly and confidently bullshits itself into believing it has successfully reasserted the narrative. When, in reality, any real inspection causes it to quickly fall apart. Throughout these tweets Rowling seemingly can’t give a direct response to anything put to her. The tweet that kicked off people making these accusations is unmistakeably her disagreeing with established historical fact about the burning of Institut für Sexualwissenschaft’s research. When presented with citations by Caraballo and others demonstrating the established historical facts regarding the burning of Hirschfeld’s Institute JK Rowling’s responses get increasingly further from the point. She moves the goalposts as facts are repeated to her, adding more conditions and hoops trans people need to prove and jump through for her to accept she was wrong in that first tweet. When this fails, she changes tactic to discrediting Hirschfeld, as if his shitty beliefs somehow make the burning of his Institute – and research into trans healthcare it contained – null and void. Then, you get the ending; the real anxiety the she was expressing reveals itself. In my view, this is demonstrated via the tweets where Rowling expresses the belief that trans people are inserting ourselves into history and centering things around us all the time. To my eyes, its just another form of the common anti-LGBTQIA+ trope of claiming we’re asking for too much in some regard. None of this was about historical facts. It wasn’t about the Nazis. It wasn’t about the Holocaust or any of its victims. It wasn’t about the research Magnus Hirschfeld led. It wasn’t about what a few random Twitter accounts said. It wasn’t about the lives of transgender people in early 1900s Germany. It was, in my opinion, just a bigot being upset that trans people aren’t quiet about our erasure from history. All just one big billionaire whine that we are asking for too much by insisting that our histories aren’t erased.

What's YOUR excuse?

Girl Power and Future Films: Poll

Without a doubt, the Barbie movie was a success but the movie was about so much more than a childhood toy. Thinking about the themes interwoven in the plot, it would be nice (IMO) if even more screenplays were optioned that take those ideas into consideration and expand upon them in upcoming female centered films. Quite a few talented women out there for various roles, whether paired together, solo, or in a large ensemble cast. Who would you like to see? I'm limited by the poll's constraints so answer in the tags if you don't see your picks listed because I know I left off a lot of great names of talented artists. I also focused on slightly younger artists, so if you're looking for women a little further along the road of life, feel free to add more names or suggest a second poll! Maybe I'll discover a new artist to watch!
