Transgender Awareness - Positive News and Stories

I have a very clear memory of when I was four telling my mother my favorite color was pink. “Oh no,” she said, “pink is a girl’s color.”

I felt mildly ashamed but also, and more acutely, a feeling I couldn’t articulate that gendered colors was the stupidest thing I’d ever heard. Being much older and, I hope, wiser, hasn’t changed my mind either, especially having learned that pink was once considered “masculine”.

I guess you could file this story under either “positive news” or “bigotry” depending on how you look at it.

Hertfordshire Libraries in the UK has introduced a new storytelling character for children named “Tala,” an alien that happens to be a member of a nonbinary species and uses they/them pronouns. Predictably, a lot of bigots who ordinarily wouldn’t give a second thought to anything related to childhood literacy programs are freaking the heck out.

That is the cutest character design I have seen in ages; haters can go kick rocks with no socks.

It’s demoralizing that good news is some governments stepping in to alleviate the oppression of other governments. But there we are.

She’s incredibly mad about a cute NB cartoon alien. How pathetic, and how petty.

I’m unfamiliar with her, but congratulations to her becoming herself.

As I asked one of my just-out trans kids, “How does it feel to finally breath?”
