There's been so many new laws passed across the US (and some other countries world wide as well), that makes it feel like even visiting another area is unsafe. I feel like I can't go anywhere without feeling like the entire state is out to get me.

What city has a transgender district?? A part of me really loves the idea of that, but I also get worried about segregation. What is it like to live there??

San Francisco. It's not segregated and trans people don't have to live there, it's just a recognition and celebration of trans people. They have a bunch of local government officials who do trans stuff like educationals, put on trans artists, work on improving healthcare and other issues for trans people, etc.

That's incredible!! I live in SoCal (the high desert, blegh) and planned on making a trip to San Francisco later this summer. Is there anything specific you would recommend a trans woman visiting your city?

There's a little trans art gallery called liminal space that you might want to check out. Past that just the typical SF stuff - check out Castro, glbt museum, hit up mission Dolores Park, etc.

What kinda city stuff do you like? Hikes? Beach? Museums? Food? More direction and I can provide recs

All of that sounds great! I've been once before but I didn't really get to explore the city or wildlife since I wasn't there for very long. I prefer not to be in the concrete jungle areas but I know there's probably some really cool places to see so I'm def open to it
