Trans Rights and Pride Activism

I'm 62 I don't give a fuck about anyone else I'm trans I came

out 14 years ago I've got three children My partner is

trans We got married two years ago We got married here in

Soho We love pride and pride has never been more important than it is now for

us as trans people We feel really

persecuted Our theme this year is we are cosmic angels We've

come from the future to warn this world about the problem

Problem Fuck Trump Fuck mass Pride is becoming a protest

again In the UK we've got the union standing

by us but we've got a government that's been ambivalent and we've

got a government that's rolled back our rights They're all

against their manifesto policies because they're all too

fucking scared about stuff Can I ask when you came out

what was it like now compared to then It's a lot worse now Why is it a lot worse

It's a lot worse now because if we went to a toilet in any of these places we could

be challenged And have you got a message for trans people Be visible We're proud

We're out And we want to be seen We wanted the LGBT people

we spoke to today are really

standing with us and that's the true ethos of something like pride The people

here absolutely

get it we know our history and we need to remind everyone of our history I'm

62 I don't give a fuck about anyone else I will go for a pee

in whatever toilet I want and that's that's the biggest protest that we could we

could wish for really
