yesterday was transgender day of remembrance
12 years ago
and i suppose i sort of want to rant about the turnout
in honor of the event i went to the rudder tower on a&m campus
the GSA club there was holding a candle lighting to honor the trans deaths this year and while it was very moving and powerful
i still cant help but be disappointed
of the 50-60 that normally show up for the GSA meetings
only 20 or so people were there
what hurt the most is that not a single person in MY GSA club at blinn showed up either
even my best friend and roommate opted out
i encouraged everyone to go to the event for about a week
i really dont care if they had to change plans for something else
this is more important
i know the majority of the people that didnt go would have opted out of work or studying to go to a standard meeting so why didnt they do that for this??
and my club knows how important the day was for me
all in all i enjoyed it but would have enjoyed it more if people didnt continue to treat the "t" in "lgbt" like it doesnt exist
¯\_(ツ)_/¯

oh well
I'm not transgender myself, but I do support.
I'm a lesbian, so I support LGBT (of course)
I'll support anything anyone does with their lives if it makes them happy..<3
*hugs close*
In the future I hope that I'll be able to be more participant in events like these..
Even one day be a part of a parade <33
they are holding a pride parade on the campus sometime in spring and itll be the first parade i go to so im pretty hyped
