Our demands are simple
We deserve equal access to gender-affirming healthcare. To delay care to a trans person is to deny it. We don't have time to wait. Secondly, we should be able to give informed consent to our own treatment - just as any cisgender young person already can.
Healthcare
Dignity
We deserve to be treated with respect in all areas of life. We are human beings, and should be protected from misgendering and deadnaming at all times.
Voice
We deserve to be heard in all matters which affect our lives. We should not be used as political pawns, and must not be made a spectacle for the benefit of politics or the press.
We deserve to feel safe in education
We deserve to make our own decisions about our social transition, and about who gets to know about it.
Autonomy
Priority
Our comfort and safety deserves to take priority over theoretical disapproval from people who are unaffected by us.
Respect
We should be protected from transphobic bullying and harassment, including misgendering and deadnaming.
Our identities are not up for debate, and shouldn’t be subject to any external validation.
Safety
Inclusion
Who we are is not a contested ideology, and our reality should be reflected in what we learn about in school
