Hey idk which cis “ally” needs to hear this, but it is literally never acceptable to out someone as trans without their consent.

Also outing someone as trans to “prove” how progressive you are, no matter who they are, is selfish and dangerous. It is not allyship in any capacity.

Also telling anyone a trans person’s deadname without their explicit consent, for any reason, is an act of transphobia. No exceptions.

Ppl who aren’t trans RT this challenge — allyship involves educating others, not just tolerating us and still expecting us to do all the labor of fighting for our safety and acceptance even when our voices are listened to so much less than cis voices

If a trans person comes out to you, and in response you out someone else to prove you’re “safe”, then you have proved the opposite.

Idk which cis ally needs to hear THIS, but if you aren’t acting against bills currently moving through US state legislatures criminalizing trans children’s existence and care, then your allyship is performative. RT this if nothing else. Please.

If you live in any of these states, the time is CRITICAL. Bills are IN PROGRESS to criminalize trans ppl. PLEASE campaign to protect trans kids. #ProtectTransKids #ProtectTransYouth #ProtectTransLives #ProtectTransWomen #TransWomenareWomen #TransDayOfVisibility #TransIsBeautiful
