Dear Friend,
Imagine that one day Facebook suddenly erased your identity from its social network- What would you do? The right to an online identity is something that most of us have come to take for granted, yet there are millions of people in every part of the world who are denied this right.
What we love about Facebook is the ability for people to create and customize online identities to reflect our lives. When it comes to languages, we can list virtually any language in the world, or even make up languages- how else could we show off our fluency in “Language of Love”? If our ability to choose religions, languages, and interests are limitless, why should Facebook impose limits on something as essential as gender?
Join me and urge Facebook to become a vehicle, not a roadblock, in the uphill drive for recognition and respect of trans identities:
