Are you aware of the Impact of Anti-Trans Rhetoric on Trans people’s Mental Health?

Do you realise how the current toxicity in the mainstream media is fuelling transphobia through myths, misconceptions and misinformation?

Please watch this video, like and subscribe on YouTube and please do leave your thoughts and comments.

The UK government is green-lighting this torrent of abuse through its continued policy of using trans people as a political football. Even organisations that should be protecting us like the Equality and Human Rights Commission are taking a stance that further marginalises trans people in society.

Trans people, actually mainly trans women, are being dehumanised and equated to sexual predators, rapists and threads to women and girls.

With this level of negative rhetoric in our government and the mainstream media is there any wonder why homelessness among trans youth is on the rise, joblessness is on the rise among trans people and families are breaking down because of this pervasive demonisation of trans people.

I ask you! What can you do? I raise a call to action for good people to stand up and understand what is occurring and put a stake in the ground and say “no more”.

Educate yourself, promote active allyship to the trans communities, and ensure your workplace is practising trans inclusion best practices.

Drown out the noise of those who would see trans people marginalised and driven to the periphery of society through their transphobic and gender-critical views.
