While this day serves to protest against injustice, it also serves to celebrate gender identities, their achievements and their community.
In 2009, the day was started by an activist named Rachel Crandall.
The event was created because there weren’t enough cultural moments that recognized the importance of people of different genders.
Abbie has been an outspoken advocate for transgender awareness when she recently slammed the show There’s Something About Miriam.

She called the show “disgusting and transphobic” in a heated tirade.
The British reality series, filmed in 2003, featured six men in their 20s trying to woo 21-year-old Mexican model Miriam Rivera.
The winner would not only win Miriam’s affections, but also a cash prize and a cruise.
However, the “twist” was that Miriam was transgender and none of the men knew about it until the last episode.

Abbie blasted the trash TV show on her podcast It’s A Lot while chatting with Rowdie Walden about the “most cooked” reality TV moments.
Abbie became furious when she spoke about the show’s distasteful premise, saying: “It was a joke by the producers basically about the contestants and also about Miriam.
“The punchline is that she’s angry and embarrassed,” she continued.

“Also, there’s the implication and reinforcement of the idea that trans people are intentionally misleading people who aren’t queer, or the general population, I think at the time, that they’re cis, and that’s an inherently bad thing.
“And if you do, it will start, and that was her punishment. This is so damn disgusting and so shitty. It shouldn’t matter if she’s cis or trans.”
Before the show aired, the contestants sued the production company, alleging a conspiracy to commit sexual assault, defamation, breach of contract, and assault, claiming they suffered psychological and emotional harm.
