Cis people -- mainly the transphobic ones (some "allies" as well) -- are often fed propaganda about trans people and how transition works, so we wanted to set the record straight (gay). We explain a number of misconceptions about transition and the early life of trans people, health discrimination, the weird "oppression olympics" game that people play, why it's so hard for people to wrap their heads around what it's like to be trans, and how privilege plays into all of it!

We've lightly touched on some of these ideas in past episodes, but for this week, we wanted to REALLY explore a number of things that cis people (mainly the transphobic ones, but it's not just them) don't understand. First, we explore HOW someone becomes a TERF using Laura's real experience having almost been sucked down that pipeline online, then we explain a number of misconceptions about transition: the early life of trans people, health discrimination, the weird "oppression olympics" game that people play, why it's so hard for people to wrap their heads around what it's like to be trans, p*nis envy, and how privilege plays into all of it!
