Vote for Avery
by Kelly
This is a repost from tumblr (and my friend’s facebook):
“My local radio station is having this contest, “The Breast Summer Ever” in which the company will fully fund the breast augmentation of the winning woman, on a voting system. I just wanted to bring to your attention that anyone can vote, and one of our own, a transwoman named Avery (#4) has made the top ten, causing a but of controversy in our very conservative city. I think that it would send a very strong message, not to mention make her dream come true if she was to win. But there is no way that she can do it without the help of the community. All you have to do is press a button and your vote is cast. As I’m sure you are all aware, transphobia rates decrease with the ability to pass, and just imagine what this would do to her self esteem. You can vote here.”
In my friend’s words:
“…subvert this shitty misogynistic contest … while also getting a trans person the surgery she wants fer free.”
I voted. I wish Avery the best of luck.
