A transgender girl accused of assaulting two students at a Texas high school alleges that she was being bullied and was merely fighting back

Shocking video shows a student identified by police as Travez Perry violently punching, kicking and stomping on a girl in the hallway of Tomball High School.

The female student was transported to the hospital along with a male student, whom Perry allegedly kicked in the face and knocked unconscious.

According to the police report, Perry - who goes by 'Millie' - told officers that the victim has been bullying her and had posted a photo of her on social media with a negative comment.

One Tomball High School parent whose daughter knows Perry said that the 18-year-old had been the target of a death threat.

'From what my daughter has said that the girl that was the bully had posted a picture of Millie saying people like this should die,' the mother, who asked not to be identified by name, told DailyMail.com.

When Perry appeared in court on assault charges, her attorney told a judge that the teen has been undergoing a difficult transition from male to female and that: 'There's more to this story than meets the eye.'

Perry is currently out on bond, according to authorities.

The video of the altercation sparked a widespread debate on social media as some claim Perry was justified in standing up to her alleged bullies and others condemn her use of violence.

The mother who spoke with DailyMail.com has been one of Millie's most ardent defenders on Facebook.

'I do not condone violence at all. But situations like this show that people now a days, not just kids, think they can post what they want. Or say what they want without thinking of who they are hurting,' she said.

'Nobody knows what Millie has gone through, and this could have just been a final straw for her. That is all speculation of course because I don't personally know her or her family, but as a parent and someone who is part of the LGBTQ community this girl needs help and support, not grown men online talking about her private parts and shaming and mocking her.'

One Facebook commenter summed up the views of many, writing: 'This was brutal, and severe! I was bullied for years and never attacked anyone!'

Multiple commenters rejected the gender transition defense and classified the attack as a male senselessly beating a female.

One woman wrote on Facebook: 'This person will get off because they're transitioning. This is an animal. She kicked, and stomped, and beat...not okay. Bullying is not acceptable, but kicking someone in the head. Punishment doesn't fit the crime.'

Mr Johansson was initially sentenced to 14 years in prison. On appeal, the conviction was changed to manslaughter, and the sentence was reduced to 10 years.

Ten years for murdering and dismembering somebody. In a sane society that would get you a bullet through the base of the skull.

Ten years for murdering and dismembering somebody. In a sane society that would get you a bullet through the base of the skull.

He was convicted for "dråp" which is like manslaughter. I don't know how or why. He stabbed her, his ex-girlfriend, repeatedly, to death, chopped up the body and dumped it in a forest. That's absolutely murder.

There is also this part.
"Mr Johannson can potentially be paroled on January 24, 2020, after spending only six years in prison."
With the automatic rebate only 2/3rds of the sentence is served unless they really misbehave or even breaks out of prison. If you break out of prison it is more likely that you have to serve your full sentence.

It was probably because his gender dysphoria was so bad that he just had to stab his ex and chop her up afterwards (UwU).

Serious answer: supposedly, it was because they didn't know enough about the course of events or Johansson's motivations for killing her.

This video doesn't really put much out there besides the idea that "some good trannies" exist, but even then I'm inclined to disagree. This guy, who classifies himself as an "oldschool transsexual" still looks and sounds exactly like an old aussie in a wig. It's kind of freakish actually, he looks like he'd be a hostage to a serial killer in a movie that was being forced to look like that. Even though he considers himself oldschool, he still takes issue with people using his original name. Assuming the guy is in his 60s from his wrinkles? Get used to it dude, people have known you and your reputation for X amount of years before you decided to troon out. Whether they refer to you like that because you're not fooling anyone or out of habit, you still look like a fucking ghoul.

In regards to what he says, it's nothing substantial. Pretty common views if you're not gargling the tranny kool-aid (girl)dick. He's against Self-ID for the obvious reasons, he's against trannies in cross sex sports, against the usual bullshit that the troon agenda spews. I wouldn't even call it conservative, I'd just call it sane.

However, he's already had his time in the troon spotlight and got shitcanned for having more than 5 brain cells and opposing the nutjobs who want to break down everything sex-based in society. He admits that he's taken advantage of the spotlight to participate in women's sports as a man etc. All in all, his head's so close to being in the right place but it's hard to take his ghoulish face seriously.

Also @ATaxingWoman I hate your icon pls change :')

District 211 grants transgender students unrestricted locker-room access

After addressing the controversial issue of transgender students' access to locker rooms in a few different ways over the past four years, Palatine-Schaumburg High School District 211 board members Thursday voted 5-2 to lift a requirement that those students use privacy stalls.

Board members Mark Cramer and Pete Dombrowski dissented. Earlier in the meeting, they were the only board members to vote for Cramer's motion to postpone the vote in favor of an advisory referendum in March.

Some board members said their votes were based on much individual research.

"I myself have been the subject of discrimination all my life," board member Ed Yung said. "I know what these people are fighting for."

While privacy stalls have been made available for all students in locker rooms at the district's five high schools, only transgender students have been required to use them. But when second semester classes begin a fter the holidays, no such rule will be in effect.

"Discrimination is never an acceptable compromise," board member Kim Cavill said.

Nova Maday, a transgender 2018 graduate of Palatine High School with a discrimination lawsuit pending against the district, said she hoped the decision would influence other districts but doesn't accomplish every improvement she's sought for transgender students. One example of what's not included, she said, is easing the process of getting one's named changed on a student ID.

"It's a great first step," said Maday, who was born male but identifies as female. "It's huge, and school districts all across the state and nation are watching."

But Vicki Wilson, a fellow Palatine resident who co-founded the residents group Students and Parents for Privacy, called the new policy "a joke and a slap in the face."

"When you turn all intimate spaces coed, that's egregious," Wilson said.

She said among the ongoing problems the district is not addressing is that there aren't enough privacy stalls for every student to use each class period, while teens who do or try to use them are ridiculed.

Superintendent Dan Cates addressed the long-running public debate and the district's evolving response to the issue before the board members' discussion and vote.

"One of the biggest concerns we continue to hear is the idea that anyone can go in any locker room whenever they feel like it -- as if a different gender can be declared at will," Cates said. "That's not the way it works in District 211. Upon a request from the student's parent or guardian, a student's stated gender in the official school record establishes the student's gender for access to gender-specific facilities."

He added that there has been no disruption caused by transgender and gender non-conforming students' sharing locker rooms with other students since the current practice was established nearly four years ago. But some opponents of the policy challenged his claim.

The attainment of transgender students' unrestricted access to locker rooms was the goal of the federal complaint in 2015 of a Fremd High School student who had been required to use a private space outside the girls' locker room to change for gym class.

"Student A," as that now-former student continues to be called, was born male but identifies as female.

After District 211's practice was deemed to be in violation of federal anti-discrimination requirements, the district negotiated the arrangement requiring transgender students to use privacy stalls.

That compromise was first challenged by a federal lawsuit filed in May 2016 by Students and Parents for Privacy, arguing that it went too far in violating the privacy rights of other students. The compromise was further challenged in November 2017 by Maday's state lawsuit, arguing that it maintained the discrimination against transgender students that was the basis of Student A's original complaint.

One of the key points of debate over the past four years was whether students still completely undressed in high school locker rooms. Advocates for transgender students' unrestricted access said no, while members and supporters of Students and Parents for Privacy said yes.

Students and Parents for Privacy dropped its lawsuit this April after a judge dismissed portions of it. But members of the group became more vocal again in September after Cates proposed unrestricted access for transgender students.
Members of the public on both sides of the issue have spoken at the last four board meetings. Among the 25 people randomly chosen to speak Thursday, 15 expressed support for the policy and 10 were opposed.

And this lad is "ecstatic" about the new policy:

The Student X case in Minnesota should’ve been a warning bell. In that one, the troon boy was allowed in the girl’s locker room where he proceeded to harass the girls, comment on their bodies, and twerk around in his underwear. These school districts aren’t looking at the long term; you want to be sued by one whiny troon or a class action of a dozen or more female students?

We had a perv in school who tried to sneak into the girls bathroom. He actually got his ass kicked by the girls in there -- he picked an unfortunate time when the badass girls of the school were in there. About 10 years ago he got arrested for having sex with someone's farm animals. I guess he finally gave up on the ladies. If the option of trooning out to get access to the girls bathroom/locker room had been available back then, he would have been first in line.

It isn't the well adjusted boys who are going to troon out. And yet somehow, adults think there is nothing that could possibly go wrong by giving mentally ill boys access to places where girls undress. How is it possible to be that stupid?

This is atrocious but it's also like, they talk about LGBT students being bullied and what not and I just want to know- If 90% of the student body is the typical strait and troon boy does as the troons do so he's going to be a creeper- what exactly do they think will happen when the girls, their boyfriends, siblings and their parents no longer have a safe space for those girls? They're not gonna go hold hands, talk about their feelings and validate the troon over their grilfriends/daughters/sisters. They're going to react violently, as they should, to protect those girls.

I hope fatty mcpinkhair gets his ass beat on the regular and the girls are malicious as possible.

Imagine him getting his disgusting body, face, and hair trashed by an alpha bitch because real teen girls are masters of cruelty and verbally ripping each other apart and it's nothing like his reddit troon safe space and animes told him locker rooms and real girls were. In high school most girls were chill, but there was always one cunt. And these dumbasses think the "escape with random woman to the restroom to avoid creep" is something that just shows up in your twenties. No, you stupid boys, it starts in your teens when you invade their locker room like a creep.

The school should have converted a utility closet into a small locker room for trans students, but every sane man and woman knows what they really want. Unfortunately mass retardation has a stranglehold on the public, somehow.

Because they got the cause and effect backwards. According to their skewed reasoning, troon boys are sick because society prohibit them from using the girls' changing rooms, rather than that only sick boys want to be in girls' changing rooms.

It's entirely normal for normal boys to think it would be fun to be in the girls' changing room but only the sick ones would come up with this particular fucked up scheme for arranging that. Normal boys would realize the scenario would not go down like the fantasy at all, and it doesn't. You just end up with a bunch of scared uncomfortable girls changing in the closed bathroom stalls or finding any excuse at all not to go to phys ed to deal with the disgusting creepy male who trooned and is stroking his boner.

I like to imagine that one day women will lead the charge to repeal the 19th amendment. "Okay, we admit it, we were wrong, women have no business outside of the home. Islam is right again." But really, I am always surprised at how much women fawn over all things related to emasculation. There is no doubt that the charge they will lead, is the one to emasculate their sons. Oh.. I made myself sad.

Michigan Secretary of State makes it easier for transgender people to change sex on state IDs

Michigan is revising the policy for changing the sex-indicator on a driver’s license or identification card to make it easier for transgender people to obtain identification.

Michigan Secretary of State makes it easier for transgender people to change sex on state IDs

The Michigan Secretary of State office is making it easier for transgender people to obtain proper state identification, Secretary of State Jocelyn Benson said today.

The new policy streamlines the procedure for changing the gender designation on a driver’s license or state identification card.

Studies show that nearly 81 percent of the transgender population in Michigan lacks proper identification, according to a press release from the Secretary of State office.

“The transgender community has faced both marginalization and violence without proper identification,” Benson said in a press release. “This change returns to a policy that was in place before the issue was politicized, and that was utilized by both a Republican and Democrat secretary of state.”

Effective immediately, individuals can change the sex designation on their license or ID card by going to a branch office to fill out a form and have their photo taken. There is a $9 correction fee for a driver’s license or $10 for a state ID. People will no longer need to provide a birth certificate, passport or court order to get a corrected identification.

Lilianna Angel Reyes and Jeynce Poindexter, of the Trans Sistas of Color Project, were among those who appeared with Benson at a press conference Monday in Fenton.

Poindexter said proper identification in the transgender community helps fight discrimination and reduces the chances for misunderstandings when interacting with law enforcement, health-care providers and others.

“For us, having a state identification that reflects how we see ourselves reduces trauma and stress when having to show your ID,” Reyes said in the press release. “It validates who we are, especially in a world where people and systems constantly devalue our identity.”

No longer does the state of Michigan require a doctors note or birth certificate or anything. You want to be legally recognized as a woman? That'll be $9. Next!

Spoiler: every single timer

Fun side fact: the person behind this move is genetic curiosity Secretary of State Jocelyn Benson, jewish, who has a masters degree in white supremacist and anti-nazi studies. Formerly of the SPLC. She looks like an extra from Men In Black, doing a poor job of wearing humanskin.

Benson was supported in a 2010 run for the same office by the Secretaries of State Project, a group that received backing from Soros’s foundation. A successor group, the iVote Fund, is backing Benson this year.

Also the governor of Michigan and the state's director of police are spending the holiday in Israel. What a sad joke this all is. If we have to be a vassal state to another nation couldn't it be to the japanese or koreans instead?

[titty skeleton]

I'm preaching to the choir here, I know, but man does the whole "change my sex on my birth certificate" shit grind my gears.

Spoilering this post because it's probably better off as a passive aggressive medium article, but I'd prefer kiwis read it and correct me and tell me I'm not retarded. Or that I am retarded for having to confirm how normal people think.

Spoiler: Long Sperging I gave up on

So let's break this down. Transgender. "Gender" being a word traditionally used by western society to be synonymous with "sex" (until recently) because it sounded better than saying "what's your baby's sex" and western society has a love/hate relationship with sex in all forms and considers it taboo despite glorifying it. I chalk that up to traditional western religious values versus 70s and onwards "fuck it just have sex" mentalities, and generally younger people being against chaste life in general. If you've lived in or read about enough western society, this is pretty simple to understand. Sex is the forbidden fruit in the Garden of Eden; you're not supposed to want it before marriage, but marketing, society and culture glorify it to the point it's unavoidable and for most irresistible. But at the same time it's also this taboo thing society and culture says you're not supposed to talk about or want. The west's cultural values on sex are kind of a mess.

With that out of the way, let's move on to "gender roles." In layman's terms, this is the cultural zeitgeist of the 20th century being as follows: Men do hard physical labor OR intensely technical and high IQ jobs and positions. Women are either relegated to housewife duties (think nuclear family), secretary positions to more powerful men, or are otherwise relegated to professions deemed "womanly," like hairdressing, knitting, etc etc. (things to be done in the home, a la housewife). Western gender roles are the idea that there are a difference between women's and men's professions and societal expectations. Every culture and sect of the world has these to some degree, because it originates in the male/female biological power struggle. Female bodies are smaller on average and generally aren't as strong as male bodies. See Male vs Female sports records for a smoking gun on that. It's a reality easily observable by even the youngest children. Therefore, there's an unspoken but clear divide in most cultures on the positions men and women should take. For whatever reason, we call these gender roles instead of sex roles. My guess? The last paragraph. Western society hears "Sex roles" and immediately thinks of the bedroom, and the context of the conversation is suddenly shrouded in the murky mist of the forbidden icky subject. Gender must have sprung up as a way to talk about sex-based, biological differences in a way that doesn't cause the people listening tend to shy away and think of the bedroom. As a note, while writing this paragraph I haven't looked up the eytomology of the word gender, this is how it seems to me from being aware of western values.

Oh, and what do you know, I'm more or less exactly right: https://www.etymonline.com/word/gender (archive just in case)

Fast forward to now, and we have "Trans Gender" which is men and women adopting the societal roles imposed on the opposite sex. Conceptually, this isn't actually a problem. Women working construction jobs, plumbing, high intensity positions etc. Men working hairdressing, sewing, house husbands etc. You'd be forgiven for thinking "well yes, this happens anyway even if it is rare" because you're exactly right. Traditional gender roles aren't set in stone, nor are they a requirement (although in some cultures its law-bound or religion-bound but those generally aren't western). If Josie wants to be a bricklayer she can do that. It's an oddity for sure, but ultimately it shouldn't matter at all unless the position hinges on specific male biology. If Josie's been carrying heavy stuff all her life and doesn't mind getting her hands dirty then there's really no reason she can't be a bricklayer. She'll get some odd looks because it doesn't conform to the "womanly" expectations, but really who cares as long as work is being done? Same for Mike the hairdresser. Mike's been interested in hairstyling all his life and he's good at it, so who gives a fuck? Gender roles are a product of the male/female power dynamic from the birth of humankind. Back when we were still reptile brain cavemen. They've evolved over time to what we have now. Men do hard physical labor or dirty jobs, women do low physical labor stylization or communication jobs. This is a very abridged version, but you've already read a lot and you're not a brainlet so you can fill in the rest understanding my point.

Sex-based socialization also plays a factor, but this is ultimately an extension of gender roles in that socialization is imparting the blueprint of what society wants you to be as a man/woman that becomes deeply ingrained in your personality as it's taught and absorbed from the youngest age. Mostly subconsciously.

The reason I put all this out there is because I genuinely think that the transgender movement doesn't make any fucking sense whatsoever. If you were a regular well adjusted individual and not a freakshow, an autist or desperate for attention, you could just accept your body and do whatever you want. It's not hard to stay at home and wear what you want, just don't subject or demand everyone else to play into your fantasy. If gender roles didn't exist, like the feminist movement was pushing for before it got co-opted and hijacked by the tranny parasite, transgender wouldn't really have a reason to exist. If it did, it would be undeniably more obvious as a fetish or mental illness. We'd be back to transsexual, which in my opinion makes more sense than transgender, but is still pretty fucking stupid.

I would cap this off properly, but the more I think about it the more I realise I'm still preaching to a choir of people who already agree with me, and I don't particularly need to organise my thoughts like this because anyone worth my time and energy already has a solid grasp on reality.

Gave up on this post after a while but instead of wasting my time and deleting it I'm posting it anyway, someone might get a kick out of it or agree with some of what I said.

A bestselling trans author’s tweet thread about abuse goes viral, then came the allegations of her own abuse - The Post Millennial

A viral tweet thread from critically acclaimed trans author Meredith Stroud about abuse may be a case of projection.

www.thepostmillennial.com

https://archive.is/rUmw2

On Nov. 10, a celebrated trans author wrote a viral tweet thread that received over 100,000 likes. The thread complained about the discrepancy between successful, beautiful women, and their often abusive and unkempt male partners.
As it turns out, she may have been projecting.

The author, who writes under the pen name “Meredith Russo,” is formerly known as Meredith Stroud and Travis Lee Stroud. Her 2016 novel If I Was Your Girl received multiple awards and near-endless commendations from literary elites. On the back of the book’s success, Stroud, 32, was invited to publish an article in The New York Times on the struggles of being a transwoman. Stroud’s subsequent book, Birthday, received awards from Refinery29, Bustle and Nylon.
However, some Twitter users brought attention to a blog post from 2016 where the author’s arrest record and past relationship history were detailed, prompting the author to use block lists to squelch criticism.

“Domestic violence is insidious and slow, like the proverbial boiling frog,” Stroud’s ex-wife, Juniper Russo, said. “It’s hard to say when it all started.”
Juniper Russo alleges she was subjected to a campaign of sexual and emotional abuse at the hands of her former partner, abuse she says was so severe that the marriage culminated in a divorce in early 2015.
“We met on OKCupid in 2011 and got married in 2013,” Russo said, claiming the physical abuse started shortly after the wedding. “We had a lot of shared interests at the time, and I was naive enough to think that shared interests are the foundation of a healthy relationship.”

Russo shared disturbing details of some of the alleged abuses she suffered during her marriage to Meredith Stroud.
“When my son was born in 2014, I had severe pre-eclampsia and injuries from giving birth. I had to have major reconstructive surgery. I was extremely weak and in severe pain,” Russo said.
“Meredith was extremely abusive to me during this time, calling me a ‘feeding station, not a parent’ because breastfeeding my son was one of the only things I could do, and because I was asking [Meredith] to help with things like diapers,” Russo also alleges.

During this same time, Juniper says Stroud would tell her to commit suicide. “[Meredith] kept mocking me when I was in pain, and told me I was so useless as a parent I should just kill myself.”
Russo says she was first forced to call the police in late 2014, “[Meredith] was having an outburst. I got scared and called 911. [Meredith] took the phone from me, and was heard trying to prevent me from calling for help.”
As a result, Stroud was booked on charges of interfering with an emergency call.

Like many victims of domestic violence, Russo says she still loved and sympathized with her abuser.
“I ended up bailing [Meredith] out, and paying for the legal defense,” she said.
Russo said she often intervened to prevent Stroud from being charged with domestic abuse, noting that the police wanted to charge Stroud in Nov. 2014.
“I was always trying to protect [Meredith] because I knew men’s jail was not kind to transwomen,” Russo said. “She was always threatening suicide if she were to get arrested.” Russo continues, “Even when things were terrible, I was worried for her safety and didn’t want her to kill herself or be beaten to death in prison.”
Russo turned over 53 pages of legal documents to support her allegations.
The divorce record, which features a restraining order against Stroud, includes messages shared between the two in which Stroud admits to abusing Russo. These messages were accepted as evidence by the divorce courts.
In one series of messages from Facebook, Stroud is calmly attempting to diffuse Russo’s desire to proceed with the divorce, offering to go on medication and check into a psychiatric facility for psychosis maintenance.

In this same conversation, Russo expresses fear of Stroud eventually killing her.

In another, dramatically different text conversation, Stroud says she hopes Russo gets “run over by a f*cking truck” and demands Russo reduce child support payments.

At the time, Stroud was recorded by the court as having an income of $8,300 gross per month, having acquired a substantial six-figure advance from Flatiron Books, the publisher of Stroud’s debut novel, If I Was Your Girl. The court would later order Stroud to pay $1,068 per month.
But Russo says Stroud has not paid child support in years, and currently owes over $20,000 in back payments. In July of 2019, Russo attempted to start a GoFundMe to raise the money needed to legally compel Stroud to pay what was owed. Other than the child support arrangements, Russo did not request alimony or any other financial compensation from the seperation.
After the divorce, Russo says Stroud denigrated her in public, telling fans and followers on social media that Russo was “a TERF who had abused and left” Stroud due to her transition from male to female.
“Many trans people are the victims of violence and discrimination, so [Meredith’s] target audience found that totally relatable and credible. They had no reason to doubt her,” Russo said, noting that both she and her current wife are members of the LGBT community. Russo identifies as non-binary, while her current wife is a transwoman.
“I’ve been harassed quite a bit by Meredith’s social network. I lost a lot of friends and have been largely ostracized from our local LGBT community.” Russo says, “I’ll often be online and someone I don’t know will suddenly jump into a thread to announce I’m the TERF who ruined Meredith Russo’s life.”
Stroud continues to publicly call Russo an abuser, and claims she’s attempting to “destroy” [Stroud’s] career and finances.
The Post Millennial has reached out to Stroud as well as Flatiron-MacMillan Publishing and Stroud’s publishing agent Sarah Barley for comment. While the publishing house and agent did not respond by the time of publication, Stroud denied all allegations while calling The Post Millennial a slew of denigrating names.
When asked about her own admissions of abuse in the court document, Stroud again asserted “Either way, my response to the allegations is that I have not ever sexually or physically abused any of my sexual or romantic partners.”
Stroud claimed, at first, that she was “barred” from speaking about her relationship to her ex-wife by law. When questioned about why she had persistently made social media posts about that very subject, Stroud declined to answer before blocking the account used to contact her.

“Meredith thrives on lies and conflict, and she’s a writer, so she knows how to come up with a good story.” Russo says, “I knew when I left her that I’d become the subject of one of these stories.”
Included in the divorce and restraining order filings was an article Stroud wrote with the intention of submitting it to an LGBT magazine. The article, written as an introspective reflection on the couple’s relationship, states in detail the abuse Stroud subjected Russo to.

And despite Stroud’s public attempts to downplay the arrest, Stroud’s written account supports Russo’s claims that it was she who is responsible for jail bailout and the charges being dropped.

The document also backs Russo’s assertion that she continued to support and care for her spouse even after the repeated physical and sexual assaults, a far cry from Stroud’s claims on social media that Russo had been the abuser, and callously made Stroud homeless.

Due to Stroud’s continued public assertions that Russo is to blame, as well as the harassment from Stroud’s fans she’s received in the past as a result, Russo says she continues to fear retaliation.
Russo notes that some of the posts Stroud has made include threats of violence. From a now-deleted alternative Twitter account, Stroud posted how she wanted Russo’s friends to be “brutally killed” in the style of a violent horror movie.

“My main hope, in discussing all of this, is that the defamation against myself and my family will stop.” Russo comments, “I’ve worked so hard to rebuild my life in the five years since I left Meredith, and I’m emotionally exhausted by the fact that I’m still being defamed on a daily basis as a ‘TERF’ and abuser, and that it’s affected my family so profoundly.”
Despite everything, Juniper Russo says she does not wish ill upon her former spouse, and supports Stroud’s work in the literary world.
“I still have to believe that there’s some good inside of [Meredith] and that she’s leaving some kind of positive mark on the world. If her books have saved one single teenager from suicide, I’d consider that to outweigh the pain and trauma I’ve had to endure at her hands.” Russo continues on to note that deeply flawed people can sometimes make good art.
“It’s important to be aware that someone who creates inspiring work is not necessarily a good person, and I think it’s dangerous for anyone to look up to Meredith as a role model, or to take anything she says at face value.”
Russo concluded. “Her work, including how she presents herself and speaks of those around her, is fictional. I’d caution anyone against mistaking any of it for reality.”

At the time, Stroud was recorded by the court as having an income of $8,300 gross per month, having acquired a substantial six-figure advance from Flatiron Books, the publisher of Stroud’s debut novel, If I Was Your Girl. The court would later order Stroud to pay $1,068 per month.
But Russo says Stroud has not paid child support in years, and currently owes over $20,000 in back payments. In July of 2019, Russo attempted to start a GoFundMe to raise the money needed to legally compel Stroud to pay what was owed. Other than the child support arrangements, Russo did not request alimony or any other financial compensation from the seperation.
After the divorce, Russo says Stroud denigrated her in public, telling fans and followers on social media that Russo was “a TERF who had abused and left” Stroud due to her transition from male to female.
“Many trans people are the victims of violence and discrimination, so [Meredith’s] target audience found that totally relatable and credible. They had no reason to doubt her,” Russo said, noting that both she and her current wife are members of the LGBT community. Russo identifies as non-binary, while her current wife is a transwoman.
“I’ve been harassed quite a bit by Meredith’s social network. I lost a lot of friends and have been largely ostracized from our local LGBT community.” Russo says, “I’ll often be online and someone I don’t know will suddenly jump into a thread to announce I’m the TERF who ruined Meredith Russo’s life.”
Stroud continues to publicly call Russo an abuser, and claims she’s attempting to “destroy” [Stroud’s] career and finances.
The Post Millennial has reached out to Stroud as well as Flatiron-MacMillan Publishing and Stroud’s publishing agent Sarah Barley for comment. While the publishing house and agent did not respond by the time of publication, Stroud denied all allegations while calling The Post Millennial a slew of denigrating names.

I went to "meredith"s twitter and the first fucking thing I saw was a tweet telling people to leave CWC alone, and condemning kiwi farms specifically. new lolcow?

So he criticized straight women for not being harsh enough on their husbands when they're lazy and whatnot, but they also shouldn't leave their husband if said husband is being a physically and psychologically abusive nut sack? LOL

A bestselling trans author’s tweet thread about abuse goes viral, then came the allegations of her own abuse - The Post Millennial

A viral tweet thread from critically acclaimed trans author Meredith Stroud about abuse may be a case of projection.

Basically, he went from "atheist hobo/possibly an alcoholic wife-beater" to "greasy troon who thinks he's a teenage girl", or "from one flavor of shit to another flavor of shit".

Anyway, it's very telling that all it took for TRAs to wholeheartedly support him was for him to accuse his wife of being an abusive TERF who wouldn't affirm his stunning and brave transition.

Edit:

I was wondering if you guys had found Russo/Stroud yet (and cheers for shouting out my article).

Stroud actually transitioned in 2013, as far as Juniper told me, which was around the same time they got married. Juniper is also a member of the LGBT community (her current wife is a transwoman as well), so there was really no issue there and she absolutely has no animus towards the trans community. So the claims by Stroud that she is a TERF are just generally ridiculous and unbelievable.

While I feel for her, she's obviously a woman drawn to broken people. Hopefully this trans woman is less broken than her ex. I don't think her ex was the only one who needed psychological counseling, to be honest.

I'm not being dismissive of the abuse she suffered. Even if she has bad taste in partners, she did not and does not deserve to be abused by anyone. Unfortunately, if she knows anything at all about the troon community, they are indeed some of the most abusive and vindictive people out there. Probably because they are misogynists in drag. I wish her the best of luck, but the troon community is going to circle the wagons on this one and no amount of facts or proofs is going to convince them. If you could change their minds with facts, they wouldn't claim that sex is on a spectrum or that they have lady brains or that it is possible to change your sex.
