I have a friend. He goes by Raymie(spelling?) or Seth. He is a female-to-male transman.
now, tuesday was valentine’s day. At my school, we play a game called the heart game. Each girl is given a heart which she writes her name on. Girls are not supposed to talk to boys for the whole day. If they talk to a boy, that boy gets her heart. The boy with the most hearts in each grade at the end of the day wins a prize.
Like any other boy, Seth worked hard collecting hearts. He should have won the prize for the ninth grade, as he collected the most hearts. Instead, they gave the prize to a boy who was biologically male, who had collected less hearts than seth. That boy had collected 12 hearts, while seth had collected 15.
Where is Seth now? A mental health asylum.
When the school found out he was trans, they expelled him and put him in a mental asylum.
so far, the school hasn’t listened to any of us kids when we tell them that it isn’t right for them to do that
If this gets enough notes and messages, I am going to take a screenshot, print it out, and take it with me when I go to my principal. I want them to see just how many people think that discriminating against someone is horrible, regardless of their situation.
please, please, reblog this, like this, add messages saying how horrible this is, or even just adding your signature
we need notes
please guys, Seth is such a great person, who was always nice to everyone, regardless of their story. He didn’t deserve this kind of injustice.
if you have any questions, by all means, send me an ask.
