Fox Fisher Instagram – It’s more vital than ever to stand beside our trans siblings. Here are a few actionable steps you can take:
1️⃣ Challenge Everyday Transphobia: It can take many forms – from offensive jokes to discriminatory practices. Don’t let it slide. Speak up, educate, and set an example.
2️⃣ Join Protests: Stand in solidarity at rallies and protests. Make your voice heard and show your support for trans rights visibly and actively.
3️⃣ Respect Pronouns: It’s simple yet so powerful. Use the correct pronouns — it’s a basic sign of respect and recognition of a person’s identity.
4️⃣ Write to Your MP: Ask them about their stance on trans rights. Urge them to support legislation that protects and uplifts the trans community.
5️⃣ Don’t ‘Out’ People: Respect the privacy of trans people. It’s not your place to disclose someone’s trans status unless they have given you explicit permission.
6️⃣ Never Assume: Gender identity can’t be determined by how someone looks or sounds. Don’t make assumptions — ask and respect their self-identification.
Remember, being an ally involves continuous learning and understanding. Let’s create a world that respects and celebrates diversity in all its beauty 🏳️⚧️🌟
