I'm a trans woman and I honestly think that I very well may end up having to hide myself in my parents attic or something.

would strongly recommend my transfolk friends move out of FL and TX, and really any red state. I know it's hard, but these places..... they're not run by people in their right minds.

Might as well go live in an actual developed country while you are at it.

i want to add for any trans folks thinking about moving to canada: make sure you check provincial laws. we have a federal bill enshrining trans rights*, but some of our provinces are interested in just ignoring it using the notwithstanding clause. obviously do your own research but i would say british columbia is probably your best bet (coastal bc especially, the interior is a little... traditionalist)

i found a resource that breaks it down better than i ever could

Is there one for the U.S. ?

It is spreading, not many states will be safe very soon. Not to mention most people don't have the ability to move. It's a nice thought, tho
