   Great amount of historical restored photos of trans men and trans women. Also the stories are very intriguing. Like this one:

   "Think trans people are too mean about misgendering these days? From 1913 on, Zapatista colonel Amelio Robles Ávila (1889-1984) threatened to shoot anyone that called him a woman with his pistol. He lived openly as a man for 71 years and was supported by his family, peers, and government."

   Everyday I learn great new things! ? See the accompanying photos attached to this toot.
