A Place for Transgender Christians

r/TransChristianity

This subreddit is dedicated to providing a space by trans people and for transgender people to discuss, question, or complain about all things Christianity. While the focus of this subreddit is on trans Christians, trans non-Christians and cisgender people are absolutely welcome to participate. Please leave transphobia at the door.

This community is dedicated to exploring transgender identities, Christianity, and all their intersections.

Personal posts, news, prayer requests, questions, and discussion threads are all welcome!

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Read this wiki for a short explanation of terms.
Here's a list of further reading on Christian faith/theology and transgender people.

Community guidelines:

1. Always use people's pronouns. If you are unsure, either ask or use their username. Persistent and/or intentional misgendering will result in temporary or permanent banning.

2. The use of anti-trans rhetoric (transphobia, transmisogyny, non-binary denialism) is strictly forbidden.

3. In addition to rule #2: homophobia, racism, classism, ableism, and other oppressive discourses are strictly forbidden. Repeat offenders of rules #2 & #3 will be banned.

4. Please observe the posting policies.

5. No anti-trans proselytizing. Don't try to convince others to not be trans or to not live out their gender. A good way to avoid doing this is by asking honest, good-hearted, non-rhetorical questions.

6. Cisgender people should avoid "playing devil's advocate" here. The devil already has enough advocates.

7. Overall, be respectful and non-invasive (for God's sake don't ask people about their genitals. It gets old before the first time.)

Why does this subreddit exist?

While r/OpenChristian, r/RadicalChristianity, and r/QUILTBAGChristians exist, there are no subs which specifically and exclusively cover transgender issues and Christianity. Transgender issues are different enough from issues of sexuality that they warrant more specific attention, rather than just being lumped in with sexuality as they often are, both in LGBTQ circles and Christian circles.
