    Look up trans healthcare rights in the UK. Transphobia is actively being promoted by our government based on shitty unfounded but politically backed science like the Cass report.

    And while the UK is probably one of the safest places in the world to be gay, there is still homophobia. If you’re visibly queer and ever have to rely on healthcare services, you will most likely experience it.

      I’m familiar, a good friend of mine is going through it at the moment. I’m not saying it’s perfect, I’m saying we don’t deserve the name “terf island” when we’re ranked 15th in the world for trans rights.
