I often see trans people and allies respond to "trans people deny biology" with extensive explanations of how trans people don't deny biology. I suggest in the future a different course: Don't bother. IT DOES NOT MATTER WHAT TRANS PEOPLE THINK ABOUT BIOLOGY. We still deserve
health care, civil rights, access to appropriate accommodations, and respect. There's this insidious vein of GC discourse in which what trans people say about ourselves is being used to discredit us, but the fact is we can say whatever the hell we want about ourselves and we
still deserve all the things. I don't care if anyone says that they're trans because of reincarnation or socialization or neurological differences, every one of them deserves access to all the the things I listed. Please please I beg of you STOP letting GCs set the debate.
The central issues are: Health care, identity documentation, respect for who we are, access to accommodations appropriate to our genders. There's no need to capitulate to GC attempts to say "You must be this materialist to ride the transition ride." So please focus on needs.
The point of all these arguments is that no trans person will ever satisfy GC demands for these things without that trans person totally annihilating their sense of self-respect on the glincel altar. No one wants to be Buck Angel or Debbie Hayton, so let it go.
