Kaum zu glauben, aber ich habe endlich Haikes Pullover fertig gemacht.
Jetzt sitzt sie zufrieden am Fenster und freut sich auf Hamburg. Das wir heute über 20 Grad haben ist ihr egal. Im Zug ist kalt sagt sie.

In the summer of 1986, I made a choice that changed everything: I came out as a #lesbian in my small #German town. Living openly as a #queer person felt dangerous, and my coming out tested the loyalty of my closest friends.

Absolutely ashamed of my home country today, as the UK Supreme Court rules that sex is binary, assigned at birth, and cannot be changed.
The ruling ignores all evidence from psychological and medical associations. Britain is only a single step behind Trump’s America.

Saying "woman in law refers to 'biological sex'" is a meaningless statement - because then you have to define - in words rather than in "biology" - what a linguistic definition of that is.
And it is linguistically impossible to do that because no woman who ever lived is made of words. But a linguistic definition can only ever be made of words.
When they tell you its all about biology THEY ARE FULL OF SHIT. Its actually all about how they use words.

Transfeminine was the fourteenth most popular checkbox term in the 2024 Gender Census.
But there were only 21 checkboxes in last year’s survey.
Transfeminine was the eighth least popular checkbox last year.
Therefore, transfeminine was closer to the bottom, than the top, of the checkbox terms in 2024.

Only four checkbox identity terms increased in 2024, compared to their last appearance on the Gender Census, and transfeminine was one of them.
Out of all the terms in the 2024 Gender Census, transfeminine increased the most since its last appearance.
Among the four terms that increased in 2024, transfeminine was the most popular term.

This thread, which features an in-depth discussion of the terms transmasculine and transfeminine, can be read as an article on my blog, Meticulous Musings.

Transmasculine is one of only two terms initially chosen by fewer than 20% of respondents, as a checkbox, that was able to subsequently cross that threshold.
The other is enby, which we discussed in a previous article.
Transmasculine and enby are the only identity terms in the Gender Census that have risen from relative obscurity to become relatively common.

Transmasculine first appeared as a checkbox option in 2016, when it received 14.2%.
Transmasculine generally grew in popularity, until it peaked at 29.4% in 2023.
Transmasculine fell to 26.4% in 2024.

This ongoing thread, about the percent of nonbinary people who identify as transmasculine and transfeminine, can be read as an article on my blog, Meticulous Musings.

It’s worth noting that transmasculine and transfeminine do not rise and fall together in synchronicity in the same way we observed that trans and transgender do earlier in this series.
39/x
Transmasculine has consistently outperformed transfeminine in the Gender Census, by a large margin.
34/x
Twice as many respondents identified as transmasculine (26.4%) than transfeminine (11.9%) in the 2024 Gender Census.
Considering how these terms are generally understood, this implies there are likely more nonbinary people who were assigned female at birth than assigned male at birth.
