Do not share news articles where Leelah Alcorn is misgendered.
If you cannot find one where she is not misgendered, share a tumblr post. Share the link to her blog. Make a post and share it. But do not be active in her misgendering.

This post serves as an updated version of this post; broken links have been changed/removed and new links have been added. Please reblog this version!
(The asterisks have also been removed from this version. I apologize for that once again; the original post is a good year old and I did not know it was problematic at the time. Also, I do not know of an umbrella type nonbinary flag that is in widespread use, so for the sake of simplicity I used the trans pride flag for the header again. I hope the nonbinary people don’t mind.)
Note: A lot of people have asked about usage on the original post so I will state this here for easy reference:
You may use these resources however you see fit; the goal of this post is not for me to get notes or fame but for people who need these resources to get them. My only request is that if you use some/all of these links in your own resources post, please send me a message and link me to it so I can see/reblog it. (Also, obviously if you’re making your own resources post, simply copypasta-ing mine and adding nothing is not cool.)
In addition, please feel free to shoot me a message if you find broken links/if you have a question/if there’s something you’re looking for/etc.! I’m always happy to help if I can.

This is killing a human life.
At 23 weeks chances are good that this fetus is being removed because it is:
a) Already dead
b) Suffering abnormalities such as it developed no brain, or had a serious genetic condition that would kill it quickly.
c) Was actively dying (not dead yet but would be within a few days, 100% guarunteed, 0 chance of saving it)
d) Was actively killing the pregnant person.Late term abortions, as shown here, make up only 1.5% of all abortions. The above four reasons are the only reasons such procedures are performed. Almost every abortion performed after 20 weeks is done on a wanted pregnancy. So you know what that means? You’re calling people who miscarried murderers. You just implied people who had a miscarriage or would have died murderers. How dare you call yourself pro life for that.
Now for the fun fact: They used to use a different procedure for these abortions in which they removed the fetus intact and allowed these people to grieve for the intact fetus, have pictures, etc. Pro lifers decided people losing a wanted pregnancy should not be allowed to grieve an intact fetus and we were left with this.
Congrats. Your movement is the reason they use this one now when people lose a wanted pregnancy late into the pregnancy. Your movement is intentionally making it harder for people to recover from the lose of a much wanted pregnancy. It’s your movement who left grieving people with this instead of allowing them something easier to deal with, something that would let them hold their deceased fetus.
Congrats. If you think you were ‘saving’ something think again. You’re hurting born people. You’re hurting people who lose a wanted pregnancy by shaming this abortion procedure. And you’re movement is the reason this is procedure doctors are forced to use now. You’re probably an awful and mean person to tell people losing a wanted pregnancy that they’re killers.
