My public statement.

Essentially, I want the pressure over my clothes to cease. I'd rather this neighbourhood not be a repeat of Willis Street, and those 'p.w.c' signs are seriously triggering for me.


I'm here. I'm trans. Get used to it. 👋


I haven't been formally told by the fuzz or my mental health team to change my attire, and I'd challenge them if they were to suggest that.


That's why I shared that Carmen post.

Seriously: I'm prepared to defend my statements about being discriminated against by my former employers, and HDCA = 6 months.


I'd rather do that than some lame project with people who despise me.

Only people who hate me would tell me to detransition ... that's my opinion. 😡🥳

I'm not going to the US as a guy. I'd rather take a conviction than that.


That's what a cis person would do. I'm not cis. That's aside from my antipathy towards theatre...


How about this: how about next time you see my dick, you bring it up with me for real? Vaffanculo haters.. ✌️

No, you can't keep saying that I have to make Weeded Out. I intend to seek an injunction to shut you up. That's what will be going down in April and May. Or y'all could just give up today and save me

Reminder: only if you've actually seen it. The bulge in my pants isn't illegal, and honestly it's barely noticeable. But people have their hangups about radical gay stuff... that's what I feel re: the suburban vibe and my colourful fashion sense. I'm not doing a 'he' me for Johnsonville. That's stupid, and honestly I want to understand how 'encouraging' me to do that is any different from conversion therapy? That's what it feels like from my pov. I sense there are plenty of allies around too, but I'm mostly defending myself from my enemies.👋

Bonus tape: this happens everywhere. I am disproportionately asked for ID when I go to supermarkets in skirts etc. So, I'm making a point: the lady knew who I was, and clearly remembered seeing my ID last time I was in the store. Her 'it's company policy' answer was bullshit, given she's the only checkout manager who has been a dick about this. Upsides of being trans: people recognise me. As I said on the tape, the Newtown Countdown stopped with that after a while. https://www.dropbox.com/scl/fi/v0jof3vstdd8f5gtjbgad/to-the-jville-countdown.m4a?rlkey=pctqvqv8zw62jkhzror68lns7&dl=0
