"Those who have the only righteous vision of what a human being should be, need to be reminded that the natural characteristic of nature is diversity, a natural feature of society is fairness and the natural feature of a person is humanism'" Anna Grodzka #Trans #Transgender #Nonbinary #LGBT #LGBTQ #LGBTQIA

TransActual need to hear from you. The Trans Lives Survey 2024/25 is now open and your answers will be used to write a report (it will be anonymised don’t worry) that we can share with all sorts of people to help them understand what life is like for trans people in the UK today. Our 2021 Trans Lives survey has been cited in all sorts of reports, guidance and training materials and has helped TransActual and other organisations working to make the world a better place for trans people to live in. So, by taking 15-20min to fill in our survey, you’ll be supporting this work. We want to hear from trans adults in the UK, at all stages of transition, from all social and cultural backgrounds, of religions (and of no religion), and of all genders. We were able to use responses from the 2021 Trans Lives Survey to highlight how experiences of racism and ableism interact with transphobia. If you're a Black trans person or trans Person of Colour, and/or disabled, please do take part because it's important that the data we collect is truly representative. Take the survey by clicking the link in our bio or by typing in: https://buff.ly/3ZNjAnh By filling out the survey you can also be entered into a draw for £150 worth of Love to Shop vouchers, able to be used at many major high street shops! #Trans #Transgender #SurveyRequest #LGBT #LGBTQIA #LGBTQ #Queer
