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
