Hello I'm new here! I'm an autistic trans woman, excited to be part of a kind community.
It's been a tough week, news about trans people has been awful and my job wont let me update my ID photo on my badge. I started my transition 1.5 years ago and present femme now. They refuse because they say I look too different, and can't wear any makeup or have long hair for the ID photo.
I'm escalating with HR but it was really demoralizing. Otherwise things have been okay! I get to visit the city and see some close friends this month so that will help recharge my batteries :)
I'm sorry you're experiencing that. Nobody deserves to be treated that way. Sending good vibes to you
Sorry that you're dealing with that fucked up situation. Glad things are going well otherwise, and welcome!
