In all seriousness, Daniel Radcliffe is saving lives with this statement. As a trans person, I used movies and books as an escape from my life and Harry Potter was one of those spaces I found refuge in.
From one Harry to another... thank you.
Women's hockey was my safe space as a trans person.
Super disappointing to see someone enter the league that would make my community feel anything but welcome.
Trans people belong in sports. Trans women are women.
I was extremely proud to play in the NWHL but when I was asked where I played hockey by strangers it would give me anxiety to state the full league name and essentially out myself.
This is a very important move for non-binary or trans hockey players. Love the new digs PHF!
Sports saved my life.
To any trans kid feeling like you don’t have a place on the field, rink, court: You belong. We’re fighting for you. 🏳️⚧️👊🏻

“It takes zero courage to love you.” An amazing quote. To anyone in the LGBTQ community who needs it: You are all deserving of unconditional love and acceptance. Don’t let anyone make you feel otherwise.

Little Harrison would never have thought he’d look like this and fit into a suit from the MENS SECTION. (okay, the tie is from the kids section but this is a huge win)
A comment I received on my YouTube channel. Provorov and the minimization of his words/actions embolden this rhetoric.
No more Hockey Is For Everyone… BUT. It’s either for everyone or it’s not. Right now it’s looking more and more like it’s not.
Shame all around.
In a bold statement, more than 200 women - including Marie-Philip Poulin, Hilary Knight, Brianne Jenner & Kendall Coyne-Schofield - have banded together to call for an overhaul of women’s professional hockey.

My heart breaks for all the brave trans folks who have risked their lives to serve their country. They deserve better than this. We must stand together now more than ever - The fight for equality is far from over. Time to roll up those sleeves.

Reflecting on my
@nwhl
hockey days and I want to thank the colour commentators/announcers again for using my correct pronouns.
I know how fast that job is and to be so cognizant of one player on the ice and their pronouns... I thank you. You know who you are. :)
7 years ago I played my first game as the first out trans athlete in pro hockey. Playing as my authentic self is something I will cherish forever.
But it’s a reality that most trans athletes right now won’t be able to experience and that breaks my heart.

Being able to play my last few seasons as Harrison was both a privilege and an honour.
Thank you all for always supporting me in everything I do. 🏒🏳️🌈
When I came out as trans I sort of lost my sense of community when I identified as a gay woman for such a long time... today I felt like I found that sense of belonging again 💙

I wanted to end 2020 with some good news:
I have officially booked my first role on a TV show. Nothing too big but it’s my first union job and I am now officially part of the Canadian actors union :)
A goal I’ve been working towards for a while now so I am very excited!💙🎥
Women’s hockey was dealt a huge blow today. One thing that I’ve learned from my time of playing with and against some of these incredible athletes is that they are extremely resilient. The fight is far from over ✊🏻
The Board of Directors of the Canadian Women’s Hockey League (CWHL) has made the decision to discontinue operations effective May 1, 2019. Please refer to press release at the for more information.
All these headlines are pretty deceiving. The charges were well known before this player was even drafted. Really sick of seeing teams/organizations doing the right thing only after being called out.
Do better.
The Arizona Coyotes have renounced the rights to top 2020 draft pick Mitchell Miller.
The news comes after an Arizona Republic story revealed that he and another teen were charged after bullying a Black classmate with developmental disabilities in 2016:
Yesterday was my 4 year manniversary! I spent my day shirtless drinking cocktails by the beach.
Cheers to 4 years of weird hair on my body, starting to enjoy beer for the first time and a comfort in myself I only dreamed of 💙🏳️⚧️
Today is Transgender Day Of Visibility and I am feeling so grateful to each trans person who shared their story before I had the courage to share my own. Here’s to all that started the fire and to all that will carry the torch 🔥

Congrats Yanic! I know how amazing it feels to play your sport while being authentically you. Wishing you all the best in your career!

It’s such an absolute shame.

Sending strength to my LGBTQ+ siblings that have to be around family members who don’t respect their pronouns and/or approve of their significant others. It’s only a holiday and it will be over soon. You will get through this. 💙✊🏻
A huge honor to have my story told through TSN. I couldn't be more proud of how this one turned out. A huge thank you to
