      That's already known. What is obviously disputed is claims of being "non-binary" and it being 1 in 30 people, as opposed to 1 in 4000, which is what it is.

      ​@@jimmoynahan9910Oh brother, the non-binary came long before trans women and trans men, it was the first type of queer in history, the androgynous, the third gender, it is well documented. This is shown in the hijras of ancient Hindu stories (although many argue that they are just trans women), as well as some Hindu gods who were the combination of man and woman, even in ancient Egypt there was one, Hapi the god.

    A reporter (i guess) respecting a trans man in 1927? that’s pretty cool.

    An to think about the fact that it looked so easy for the reporter to respect his pronouns conpared with today

    The deadname is Mavis HUGGINS, not HIGGINS. If you spell it correctly you can actually find newspaper articles concerning Peter Alexander's life.

      Who? Peter? Honestly yes 😍❤️ he is quite handsome and cute. And he would understand what us women go through as he was born one and lived as one

    Oh my gosh this is hilarious, I'm digging around for first hand accounts of trans people from this time period because I have an ftm character. He has almost his exact deadname!
