Four separate explanations for one bruised arm. Handshakes. Then chronic venous insufficiency. Then a signing table in Switzerland. Then a forearm no handshake in the recorded history of the species has ever reached. The same government spent a year subpoenaing hospitals for the confidential medical files of transgender children #TransRights #Trans #LGBTQ #QueerNews #News #Journalism #Resist #Solidarity #uspol #MedicalPrivacy #Politics #Accountability 1/3

Ask why the standard of proof for one man's forearm is a shrug, and the standard for a fifteen-year-old's endocrinology is a grand jury subpoena. Show me the records, they said. They meant yours. #TransRights #Trans #LGBTQ #QueerNews #News #Journalism #Resist #Solidarity #uspol #MedicalPrivacy #Politics #Accountability 2/3
