This photo always cheers me up a bit. Itā€™s a front-page article from 1955 about Christine Jorgensen, one of the first women to have sex-reassignment surgery.
Since the text is a bit small and I couldnā€™t find a larger copy, hereā€™s what the small blurb says:
A World of a Difference

George W. Jorgensen, Jr., son of a Bronx carpenter, served in the Army for two years and was given honorable discharge in 1946. Now George is no more. After six operations, Jorgensenā€™s sex has been changed and today she is a striking woman, working as a photographer in Denmark. Parents were informed of the big change in a letter Christine (thatā€™s her new name) sent to them recently.

This article is 58 years old, and itā€™s more respectful of Christineā€™s pronoun choices and name than some publications are today. It makes me happy to see a newspaper be respectful of a trans personā€™s choice of name and pronouns like that :3

Say it again for the haters in the back who want to keep pretending that trans people, or even treating trans people with respect is even remotely anything new. šŸ˜Ž

Itā€™s worth mentioning, that this was kinda celebrated as a wonder of the atomic age at the time.Ā ā€œLook at the power of our scientists! Look at what we can do!ā€You know, back when America was trying to be the leader in scientific advancement.
