it’s really frustrating to see well meaning people with a level of expertise and a platform get seduced by Gender Critical nonsense. When I was a kid, these same people said being gay was a choice. They know they lost that war so they use 6th grade biology to foment hate
being trans is not a choice. Nobody would choose to live a life where they’re 11x more likely to be murdered just for leaving the house
but EVEN IF IT WERE, that’s valid!
It’s not for me to tell a person whether to get their ears pierced, let alone what they should do with their body if that is how they’re most content or if that’s what makes sense.

People are very VERY worried about TRANS KIDS in the same way they were worried about GAY KIDS in the 80s. In the 80s, it was about “what if those kids get dragged into a lifestyle and catch HIV?”
Now it’s “what if they go on puberty blockers and uhhhh become murderers???"

guess what? People who work in gender clinics are trained professionals!
They’re there to help and facilitate. Their agenda is the happiness of kids who are going through it because they know what’s up but they can’t help without medical intervention

We never have a conversation about whether children are able to consent to chemotherapy or insulin pumps.
We ONLY have a conversation about whether children are able to consent to puberty blockers.
That is by design

children are being asked to postpone their lives to satisfy someone named Cressida Twatt-Jones who has never been satisfied with a thing in her life.
It is UTTER INSANITY

Imagine telling children in the 1955 that they couldn’t consent to the polio vaccine and had to wait until they were 18
there’s a word for that: malpractice.
That’s what it is when you deny children treatment to help confirm their gender identity. It’s straight up malpractice and now it’s being enshrined into law. It is a deeply harrowing precedent

trans medicine literally saves lives and those are lives that often exist on a knife’s edge because of people in the Gender Critical movement, and their allies: conservatives and evangelical christians.
You cannot give Gender Critical any quarter. It is hate speech.

evangelicals and conservatives have never once been on the right side of history. Transphobia is not the exception to the rule.
Gender Critical is a cult that relies on poor understanding of science and a deliberate obfuscation of gender science and medicine.

Gender Critical is the modern version of phrenology or race science and if you think they have ‘some interesting points’ then you are being seduced by thought reform.
the science is in and the science continues to be confirmed:
Nature is queer as hell!
Gender is a construct!
Anyone who is skeptical of these things has not read enough of the science backing it.
The more you get into biology as a biologist, the less you realize you know

and that is true of all of the sciences, by the way.
That’s just how it is.
Pretending the 4 hours you studied chromosomes in grade school is sufficient information to spout hatred is literally MAGA shit. It’s not pro-lesbian, it’s not pro-woman, it’s just hatred

and just as an aside: I don’t want to live in a world where everything is binary. That sucks!
Look at history when there were rigid binaries. They sucked and they ended in wars

anwyay if trans people make you feel weird, instead of going online to find other people who feel the same way, maybe look at what messages you received about gender in your childhood that might be causing you shame or causing this reaction.

if you really truly are a feminist then you absolutely cannot be a transphobe because the central tenet of feminism is that we must intersectionally protect marginalized people and raise them up.
Trans people need our help.
They don’t need your dimestore biology and hate
