|Since the thirteenth century CE, the Catholic festival of Candlemas on February 2 also honors the [[gender-variant identities worldwide#femminiello|femminiello]], a traditional gender-variant role in Italy. Pilgrims make their way to the remote mountain church at Motevergine, whose icon, the Madonna of Transformation, Mamma Schiavona, is said to have miraculously saved the lives of victims of homophobic violence in 1256 CE. The festival is celebrated with the long and energetic tammurriata dance, and a candle-lit procession, by pilgrims who are visibly gender nonconforming. Historically, this has been called ''juta dei femminielli.'' Since 2002, it has also been called Femminiello Pride.<ref name="femminiello huffpost">Giuseppe Melillo.

I ended up shortening it to Trans Cake Day [...] Basically, instead of us doing all the work, people (especially cis people, I feel!) give cake to their trans friends and family to show them how appreciated they are.
