Today's advice: believe women.

Especially Black women.

Especially trans women.

I have learned so much from doing this even when it was (initially) quite difficult because of what I thought I knew about the world. I am better for having listened.

@Blenster If a trans woman and a black woman disagree, which one should we default to believing?

Call me strange, but my beleif in a person is based on their demonstrated honesty, the color of your skin or history of your genitals isnt going to effect that, nor should it. But by the same token you shouldnt discount **anyone** if their claims are serious unless you have good reason to think that person is dishonest, if you dont you should try your best to give them the benefit of the doubt and try to verify any claims if you can.

@freemo, again: another stupid question! The scope is having better days, starting from today. So follow the advice: listen to both; believe to both; avoid discussions; act as usual, they will not notice! 🙂
