List of transgender politicians.
133 'transwomen'
18 'transmen' and non binary individuals (both males and females)
So at least 82% MALE.

I started testosterone five years ago today. After 4+ years of weekly injections to maintain such dangerously high hormone levels, I had elevated liver enzymes, heightened red blood cell counts, and regular heart palpitations. I am so grateful I stopped when I did.

A teacher who raised concerns about the online mental health platform, Kooth, was told to stop asking questions.
The teacher was right to be worried.
Kooth suggests that it's possible to change sex to its young, mainly female, users.

Bill was sponsored by @bradhoylman, who also wants to legalize sex trafficking and create a breast milk industry.
