A new type of video on the channel for pride month, I have decided to share my current experience as an LGBTQ+ person (specifically GTQ) living in the UK right now. I talk about the rise of transphobia in the UK and how it has affected my mental health, even as someone not especially engaged with LGBT topics and 'debate'. Hear how the politicalisation of trans lives and trans healthcare has affected me and why I decided to speak out now.
💙Please note that my channel is a calm, kind space focused mainly on nature connection through art. It is not a place to have a debate about the issues I raise in this video. This video is just here for me to share my experiences with my community and others who may be interested. Any divisive, mean, or heavily political comments will be hidden or deleted.💙
