alt-text: [yellow words saying “abolish cis puberty” next to a trans flag on a digital art wooden background]

How we treat puberty relates heavily to the systems of transphobia, sexism, and quite a lot of other hierarchies. How we treat it is a large component of systematic oppression and must be taken seriously.

    Despite being cis myself, I wish I had the option to delay my puberty a couple years. I stopped growing at 12, and am very short. Even another 2 inches would have only put me in the “almost average” category.

    It’s something that doesn’t harm anyone and allows kids to choose another aspect of who they want to be as adults. I’m here for it.
