## Caption

In case you don’t follow people on IG that regularly and casually use words like #cishet and let you know their pronouns, you may have missed the nytimes report detailing a memo from the Trump administration that would effectively erase federal recognition of trans and nonbinary gender identities. The Department of Health and Human Services would make changes to #TitleIX definitions of gender, only recognizing male and female sex, which could be DNA tested to determine. It would also define gender as “unchangeable.” The effects of such a policy would be devastating to over 1 million Americans — access to health care, housing, and other public services would be limited or withheld completely. *

If you don’t have any trans friends or don’t know much about transgender people, I highly recommend googling the vox 10 common myths I posted here. They have a well researched card for each of the ten myths so you can learn about a population of people that is just trying to live like the rest of us. *
