Exclusive: largest data analysis of its kind counters Trump’s aggressive efforts to deny trans minors’ existence
More than 2.8 million people now identify as transgender in the US, including an estimated 724,000 youth, according to a new data analysis that is the largest of its kind to date.
Researchers from the University of California, Los Angeles (UCLA) Williams Institute used federal surveys and data from state health agencies to identify the size and demographics of the trans population in each state.
The analysis, shared with the Guardian and released on Wednesday, documented thousands of trans youth living in all 50 states and the District of Columbia. The findings counter Donald Trump’s aggressive efforts to deny the existence of trans minors, as his administration removes references to trans people across federal agencies and widely erodes protections and programs for LGBTQ+ communities.
We won’t have full trans acceptance until the procedure can guarantee that MtF will looks super hot and fuckable.
-Literally doctors in trans medicine until very upsettingly recently
You used to only cleared for HRT or surgery if your doctor thought you’d look hot afterwards
This is the dilemma I’m facing. Continue to masquerade as a man and have a somewhat “normal” life, or live as my authentic self and suddenly make life 100x harder having to live with transphobic shitheads out there because I know damn well I ain’t gonna pass.
The technology is getting better everyday. Beauty standards are changing constantly. You should do whatever you think will make you happy.
I know exactly what would make me happy, the problem is the people who would make it their mission to make me as unhappy as possible in life for daring to try to be happy.
All MtF trans are super hot and fuckable if you ask me.

This is absolutely untrue lol
There’s nothing wrong with being ugly, though. The attractiveness bell curve is about the same between cis and trans

What if I told you everyone is hot and fuckable?
Then I’d question your definition of hot lol
You two are just arguing over standards
We are all geniuses!
Kinda weird to tie acceptance to physical appearance, ngl.
Cis male heterosexuality is the primary obstacle and driver to the acceptance of non-traditional relationships in mainstream society.
A big reason for LGBTQ gains in the 90s and 00s was the allowance of gay kissing and relationships in movies and TV shows… So long as they were sexy women.
