Text Quotes
When a trans woman gets called a man, that is an act of violence  (Trans Quotes) Trans fats really are a metabolic poison  (Trans Quotes) Even the relatively small amount of trans fats are likely to be causing around 7,000 premature deaths from heart disease per year  (Trans Quotes) Trans women are getting killed EVERYDAY and you think the struggle is over because you can put a ring on a finger?!  (Trans Quotes) It happens all the time! People are always talking about that explosive moment in their family history that sort of changed everything and rattled the cage, and more times than not it has nothing to do with trans issues. That’s why people are relating to this show [Transparent], because our family is their family and they understand that dynamic.  (Trans Quotes) My intention was never to write a trans novel - which is perhaps an effective strategy for writing a trans novel.  (Trans Quotes) I argue that legal equality has failed resistance movements aimed at transforming material conditions of violence, and that trans activists should take a decidedly different approach.  (Trans Quotes) Trans Am sales went up 70 percent after Smokey and the Bandit, and I was promised a free car every year for life by the Pontiac president.  (Trans Quotes) Calling a trans person by their former name is referred to as deadnaming and is considered highly offensive to most trans people I know.  (Trans Quotes) Increase your consumption of healthful fats like extra virgin olive oil, avocado, grass-fed beef, wild fish, coconut oil, nuts and seeds. At the same time, keep in mind that modified fats like hydrogenated or trans fats are the worst choices for brain health.  (Trans Quotes) In a lot of states LGBT people can be fired for just being gay or for just being trans. That’s totally legal.  (Trans Quotes) To try and imagine that I’m another person is always going to be hard - whether I’m writing about a truck driver or someone who is gay, who’s trans, who is of a different ethnicity or creed. But it would be boring if I always had to write about myself and my limited viewpoint  (Trans Quotes) More conservative advocacy work often encourages portrayals of trans people as people who deserve rights. Deservingness, of course, corresponds to national racial, gender and ability norms  (Trans Quotes) Military inclusion has never been a central demand from trans populations, who consistently name criminalization, immigration enforcement, poverty and joblessness as top priorities  (Trans Quotes) We see clear evidence repeated in many studies that higher intake of trans fats is associated with higher risk of heart disease, and with many other conditions, such as diabetes and infertility  (Trans Quotes) There’s not just one trans story. There’s not just one trans experience  (Trans Quotes) Because having your story told, as a woman, as a person of color, as a lesbian or as a trans person, or as any member of any disenfranchised community... is sadly often still a radical idea. There is so much power in storytelling and there is enormous power in inclusive storytelling and inclusive representations  (Trans Quotes) Healthcare for trans women is a necessity. It is not elective. It is not cosmetic. It is life saving  (Trans Quotes) I am a trans woman. My sisters are trans women. We are not secrets. We are not shameful. We are worthy of respect, desire, and love. As there are many kinds of women, there are many kinds of men, and many men desire many kinds of women, trans women are amongst these women. And let’s be clear: Trans women are women  (Trans Quotes) The trans fat label has been an enormous incentive for food companies to take trans fat out of their products  (Trans Quotes) It is not a woman’s duty to disclose that she’s trans to every person she meets. This is not safe for a myriad of reasons. We must shift the burden of coming out from trans women, and accusing them of hiding or lying, and focus on why it is unsafe for women to be trans  (Trans Quotes) According to the media, trans women were subject to pain and punch lines. Instead of proclaiming that I was not a plot device to be laughed at, I spent my younger years internalizing and fighting those stereotypes  (Trans Quotes) This pervasive idea that trans women deserve violence needs to be abolished. It’s a socially sanctioned practice of blaming the victim. We must begin blaming our culture, which stigmatizes, demeans, and strips trans women of their humanity  (Trans Quotes) When you’re a trans woman, you are made to walk this very fine line, where if you act feminine you are accused of being a parody, but if you act masculine, it is seen as a sign of your true male identity. And if you act sweet and demure, you’re accused of reinforcing patriarchal ideals of female passivity, but if you stand up for your own rights and make your voice heard, then you are dismissed as wielding male privilege and entitlement  (Trans Quotes) In trans women’s eyes, I see a wisdom that can only come from having to fight for your right to be recognized as female, a raw strength that only comes fro unabashedly asserting your right to be feminine in an inhospitable world  (Trans Quotes) We have different experiences, but trans women have experiences that do parallel with the whole fabric of what womanhood is. Embracing trans women, listening to their stories, enriches what womanhood is. It expands it and makes it even better  (Trans Quotes) It is revolutionary for any trans person to choose to be seen and visible in a world that tells us we should not exist  (Trans Quotes) I want to create a place where trans people and our allies could come together to share experiences, information and ideas. Being transgender or loving someone who is transgender can be challenging in our society and I hope that members of this site will also use this space as a place to support and encourage each other. Together, we can strengthen our community and open the hearts and minds of others  (Trans Quotes)
