Is Transgender Awareness Week a thing our Trans-Comrades care about or is this one of those lib movement-coopting things? (hexbear.net)

I didn't see anyone mention it here or over on blahaj and the first I've heard of it was from a massive lib I know that just recently came out. So I was wondering.

Oh, it's this week? I wasn't aware. (ba dum tss)

The event is probably a good thing. Many people's only knowledge of trans people is from sports news and internet pornography, neither of which paint us in a good light. Trans people self-advocating and being visible (at minimum) is necessary.
