TEAM LEXIE: We love our trans kids!

LEXIE CANNES STATE OF TRANS — Trans kids, whether you have good homes or not, you’re loved by all of us!

When possible, us trans adults ought to be trans role models for them as some may have never seen an adult trans person.

And a tip of the hat to those of us that work with or can reach trans kids directly as you have our gratitude for what you do.

TEAM LEXIE: It’s going to be a much more upbeat new year, so let’s ROCK ON!

LEXIE CANNES STATE OF TRANS — 2019 is here and we might have just grabbed the bull by the horns. Most certainly, the Democrats have the president in a headlock. With a number of investigations into Trump’s administration most certainly to begin in the next few weeks, the president will learn that his future actions will have consequences — accountability — something that the outgoing majority…

TEAM LEXIE: Don’t let anyone give up your drive!

LEXIE CANNES STATE OF TRANS — If you’ve your mind set to do something, don’t let anyone stop you! God knows I’ve had people all my life try to stop me from doing this or that. Now that I’m older, I’ve very few regrets because I was able to do pretty much everything I set out to do. Not everything succeeded, but that’s ok. Sort of like this drawing. It doesn’t look quite right, but I tried, and…

TEAM LEXIE: You’re never alone!

TEAM LEXIE — Don’t believe everything you hear or read!

LEXIE CANNES STATE OF TRANS — Just because it’s on a sign or meme doesn’t make it true. When an opponent starts using medical terminology to shut us down, it’s a sign of desperation — they now have to flat out lie to sway the masses. A tactic that will be their own undoing.

Book Review: Everything You Wanted To Know About Trans*

LEXIE CANNES STATE OF TRANS — Review of the book “Everything You Wanted To Know About Trans*” by Brynn Tannehill.

To the point: Thumbs up, way up.

In this unusual review, I’ll get into the actual book further down, but instead, I want to focus on something close to my heart: trans kids.

But first, a disclaimer: I was not given a “review” copy, nor am I getting paid by anyone associated with the…

Thinking of sharing a news article on Facebook/social media? First, VERIFY, Verify and verify. Please!

LEXIE CANNES STATE OF TRANS — Friends, friends, no names please, but I’ve noticed a disturbing rise of FRIENDS sharing supposedly “positive” news from dubious websites on Facebook that were not quite factual at best and outrageous lies at worst. Indeed, in this last week alone, I’ve must have posted “not true” or “fake news” a dozen times on news articles appearing in my feed — usually after…

Trans 101 question answered: Why aren’t trans people just given more of the male or female hormones needed to match their outward physical self?

LEXIE CANNES STATE OF TRANS — By guest writer Michelle Rose. Trans folk in transition are given hormones; as much as is medically safe and consistent with the patient’s physiological profile. The average dose of estrogen (orally) [for trans women] is about 4 mg a day. I have no accurate data concerning the amount of testosterone for trans men, but I am aware that in their case, it’s mostly…

Question: Is there an unwritten or unspoken rule about acknowledging other trans women?

LEXIE CANNES STATE OF TRANS — By guest writer Michelle Rose. Yup, the Prime Directive. Just like Star Trek, this one is engraved in stone and followed only by older, more experienced trans folk: never acknowledge another trans woman in your presence whom you do not know personally. Never. The reason? Trans women don’t like to be outed. Me, I don’t care. You’d have to be blind or half-drunk not to…

Question: What are some of the worst cases of transphobia you’ve encountered?

LEXIE CANNES STATE OF TRANS — By guest writer Michelle Rose. Well, I’ve been assaulted five times. Does that count? I’ve been: 1) Spat on (by a sweet little old lady who looked like someone’s favorite granny). 2) Elbowed in the head while disembarking from a city bus (essentially a sucker punch that knocked me to the pavement and if it hadn’t been for some sharp-eyed folks at the bus stop who…
