Silver

Highly missional, especially now. Could be fleshed out more, but of course, that's going to be a bit of a fight. I endorse silver. CorruptUser 20:28, 22 March 2021 (UTC)

Too many "citation needed" tags. Page needs work. Chef Moosolini’s Ristorante Italiano^{Make a Reservation} 21:01, 22 March 2021 (UTC)

Plz add that

Some rtansphobes like to bastardize trans people under 25, citing that their "brain develops under 25". The reality is that gender identity develops and becomes permanent at the age 4 and detransition rates of such young people are no lower or higher than those older and that those 18 years old are often old and developed enough and know their gender identity enough to consent for hormones and surgery. Being trans isn't some kind of decision - it is more about self-knowledge than a conscious decision.

After the age of 25, some changes become irreversible - that's exactly the type of psychological and bodily damage transphobes look for. Don't fall for this primitive propaganda. 212.51.219.245 (talk) 14:42, 25 September 2021 (UTC)

Taboo against deadnaming

In the article, the following is asserted: "There is not a universal taboo against deadnaming in the LGBT community." This is false, at least as a prescriptive statement. If it's true as description, that's solely because transphobia is still rampant within the community as a whole, and not because deadnaming isn't seen as extremely harmful and hurtful. It is not acceptable to deadname trans people, full stop. The only exception is where the person in question is not out fully and needs you to maintain their false identity to whoever they're not out to, because another universal taboo in the queer community is against outing people without their consent. Referring to a trans person pre-transition is not licence to deadname them. Please amend the article to remove this (unintentional, I'm sure) horrible bit of transphobia. Thank you.

"Biologically inaccurate names and pronouns"

"Plaintiffs … are both parents of Virginia Beach public school students who want to protect their children from being compelled to use biologically inaccurate names and pronouns…"
