transbodypride:

Hi guys, My name is Kyle. I am 18 and a transgender male.

We only have 1 MONTH (till december 19, 2012) to get 25,000 signatures on the petition I just created for the white house to review. It is basically asking them to provide coverage for transgender surgeries and hormonal treatment. Here is a link to the exact petition: 

https://petitions.whitehouse.gov/petition/provide-financial-coverage-sex-reassignment-surgeries-transgender-americans/SXvgvYhv

Come on guys, I have seen the dumbest posts on here get a million notes. All we need is 25,000. So REBLOG REBLOG. And tell you friends and such. It takes 2 seconds and can really make a difference in someones life. Being transgender is both a medical and emotional condition that DESERVES coverage. The cost of these things make goals for some seem almost unreachable.

h33h33h33:

radicalhat:

fy0ra:

THIS HAS ALARMINGLY LOW SIGNATURES OH MY FUCKING GOD PLEASE SIGN THIS?????? PLEASE

 

radicalhat:

im going to keep reblogging this because

you know what?

this is VERY VERY VERY important to me

 

anshinwrites:

no seriously though

WHY DOES THIS LITERALLY HAVE 1000 MORE NOTES THAN SIGNATURES

WHAT THE FUCK ARE ALL OF YOU ASSHOLES DOING

SIGNAL BOOSTING IS GREAT BUT GO SIGN THE FUCKING PETITION

Because the non-Americans were scared off by the state and ZIP fields on the sign-up page? I know up until now I hadn’t noticed those fields are not required, and nothing in the Terms of Participation says you have to live in America.

So, they do (indirectly) ask if you’re American, but they don’t complain if you refuse to answer. No need to let a bit of geography stop you. Go, click.
