Well and correctly written article. Hats off to AP and Elliot!

Lil’ Elliot returned! Time to finally make the announcement!

Females have a right to be pregnant, not fertilize. Being LGBT doesn’t change reproductive rights. Doctors know genetic sex and will be banned from trying to make a male pregnant or a female fertilize.

It's ok to mention what his former name was, ap. It's not forbidden. You are providing information. There's no need to tiptoe around it.

The transphobes in the comment section has made me lose hope in humanity...that is if these people shaming him for being trans is considered human in the first place

Elliot better register for selective service

This is cringe

🙄

Who cares!

Childhood trauma has such a long lasting impact on adults....

Theyre not even gonna mention trailerparkboys
