I see the president was sworn in yesterday and has already done a bunch of shit. He declared that the only genders recognized are male and female and I very much assume requires people to remain in their biological sex.

I as a transmasc person am both intrigued and terrified for the next 4 years. I have yet to come out to anybody who isn’t a close/also trans friend and had been previously planning on coming out this year to my family + school. While I very much assume my family will accept me even if it takes them some time to wrap their heads around it, I think it’ll be interesting to see how my liberal-leaning private school (that has trans students and a trans teacher) goes abt it since its basically illegal in my state to be trans at school now starting a few months ago. The uncertainty of all this though is really scary bc even if I can’t get medical care for a few years thats not going to be the end of my world I could be facing much more than that.

I think over the next 4 years the best thing I or anyone can do is just continue moving on. Trans and queer people have always been around and we have always pushed through. I think that as long as we stay together and focus on our communities and making sure everyone can get through this it might just be okay. We all need to stand strong and watch for the light at the end of the tunnel.
