Better sizing.

Better sizing, which is harmful.

Yeah, I mean, yet again, we are in a situation where historically,

Black trans women, Black trans people stand at the intersection of anti-Black racism and

misogyny and homophobia.

And so those sort of issues crisscross through the trans community and particularly for trans women in a way that stops us, again, from being able to access the things we need.

And many, unfortunately, historically, many black trans women have been forced to make a decision when they've been shut out of work and shut out of different opportunities, they've been forced to make the decision to engage in survival sex work.

And that's something that I think has impacted the community.

It has lasting impacts in the community and for individuals.

But this obsession with trans issues, like you said, it is fatal.

And the lack of protection that we should get from who are people who should be progressives.

These are people that campaign on progressive ideals.

And then they turn around and they admit after, not admit, but actually say,

coalesce or acquiesce to the right and saying, yeah, the reason why we lost the election is because we were too woke and we focused on trans issues too much.

When the Harris campaign did not champion, I'm not saying

Kamala Harris was anti-trans, but that was not included in her platform.

Anyway, I was looking for it.

I was working with the campaign saying, right now there are many, many anti-trans policies that were happening in the state level, despite the fact that Donald Trump was not in office.

But his rhetoric really, and probably his first term, really allowed people at the state level to start attacking the trans community years ago.

And so we were seeing that attack really, really sort of take hold and end up resulting in hundreds of anti-trans bills and policies.
