Various American Colleges to Celebrate ‘Transgender Day of Visibility’ on Easter Sunday
“Held annually on March 31, Transgender Day of Visibility (TDOV) is a time to celebrate transgender and non-binary people around the globe and acknowledge the determination it takes to live openly and authentically”
March 31st is apparently the day that has been used for this purpose for years, but this year it falls on the same day as Easter. Leftists won’t care.

Colleges to celebrate ‘Transgender Visibility Day’ on Easter Sunday
While many Americans will celebrate Easter this Sunday, some institutions around the country will commemorate March 31 as “Transgender Day of Visibility.”
On March 1, the Chancellor’s Committee for the Status of Lesbian, Gay, Bisexual, Transgender, and Queer People at the University of Illinois Chicago announced it would be celebrating the progressive holiday. “[Transgender Day of Visibility] is dedicated to celebrating transgender people and raising awareness of the work that is still needed for trans equality,” the group’s message states.
The committee also writes that “[n]ot using a trans person’s name or pronouns is another form of disrespect against transgender people.” As such, the group informs the university community that “[if] you encounter someone not using a trans person’s name or pronouns, check in with the trans person, disrupt communication and speak up.”
Similarly, the Office of the President for the University of Massachusetts System has also proclaimed this Sunday to be Transgender Day of Visibility.
”Held annually on March 31, Transgender Day of Visibility (TDOV) is a time to celebrate transgender and non-binary people around the globe and acknowledge the determination it takes to live openly and authentically,” states the web page of UMass President Marty Meehan, a former Democrat congressman.
The president’s office also features “Ways to Support the Transgender Community,” which include an extensive list of commonly used pronouns, in addition to a “Glossary of Transgender Terms” compiled by the far-left LGBT nonprofit, GLAAD.
Not all schools who will be recognizing Transgender Day of Visibility are confined to liberal states.
The University of Kentucky College of Public Health has announced that it also intends to “celebrate and show support for the lives and contributions of trans people and uplift the voices of those in the community” on March 31.

Biden going to invite tranny to flash their man boobs on the white house lawn again for easter??
“[Transgender Day of Visibility] is dedicated to celebrating transgender people and raising awareness of the work that is still needed for trans equality,”
Sorry, confused masses, we have individual rights, not collective rights. You have the exact rights bestowed upon all Americans, you have no special right because of your delusions.
Why would I celebrate trans people? They don’t celebrate me.

I don’t get it at all. Why the kvetching?
Why is this a problem?
Thanks in advance.
There is no such thing as “trans”, but there are deluded people who truly need psychiatric help. I don’t say this meanly. Why would one “affirm” a man’s delusion saying he is a woman, but be excoriated telling an anorexic woman she is fat?
We either affirm or don’t. Both people have delusions.
It’s just sad, all the way around.
Not to mention this is a very profound holy day and we are told to recognize what is an abomination to God?
Not a snowball’s chance.
As for me and my house, we shall serve the Lord.
Firstly, why should they be visible? Let them do whatever they do quietly and try to conform. I’ve had to learn to conform in lots of ways too.
Secondly, on Easter, the major Christian holiday? Emphasizing it this year is a deliberate attempt to offend and exert cultural control. That’s not OK by the standards they would want applied to their own “identity” issues. See the prior paragraph, they should shut up and not bother us about their problems and practices, just find other consenting adults and do what the hell they want.
Doesn’t Joe Biden claim to be a Catholic? Don’t they celebrate Easter? What about the Pope? Where’s his denunciation of this cultural perversion in the USA, surely he knows all about it. Maybe he’s just fine with it, after all who is he to judge?
Transgenders: “Invisible” people whom you like less and less when you do see them; “silenced” people who don’t know how or when to just shut up.
People and individuals fall into 4 groups for me. At the lowest level is “eff-off,” I don’t want to see you. Then I have “tolerate,” which is pretty much neutral, and pretty much akin to “I put up with you.”. Then I have “accept” which is for those who I am OK with without reservation. And finally I have “welcome,” which I generally bestow upon nubile blondes and the like. At the moment, the trannys are in the tolerate group, but if they keep it up as they are, I can easily demote them to eff-off in my hierarchy. A lot of people who are in my tolerate group are also those whose demand to be in the acceptance group. Again, be grateful for what you have, I say. What worries me about the liberals is that they seem to have the opposite ranking system than I do, where they welcome those in my “eff-off” category and tell those that I welcome to “eff-off.” And then there are those who seem to sort of have everyone on a single plane ( I don’t see race, color, gender, etc), although we know that is impossible, so I trust them the least. At least with the others I have an inkling where I stand.
I unhesitatingly put any sexual weirdos trying to be visible in my face into the f-off category. Do it in private, then I don’t care. I don’t want to know about their practices, and so I won’t even have to know. If they try to offend me, they will succeed.
Sounds like a good day to sleep in, all day. Eyes closed.
