Why are you trans?
Will they be mad that they were given a reason? If so, why did they ask? Trans people didn’t invent gender stereotypes. Collectively, we don’t reinforce them any more than anyone else. We navigate societies that stereotype us.
Jeffrey Epstein said ‘you might want to focus on transgender biology’
He suggested this to evolutionary biologist Robert Trivers in 2019. ‘Little public interest’, Epstein warned, ‘where genetics would be helpful. I’ll do no harm and won’t give you drugs if you ask because it’s bad for you.’
The Epstein Files show a rift between atheists & the consciousness movement
What I still want to know is: Why are Epstein’s close associates anti-trans? Dawkins is not open to the idea that trans people might make interesting or worthy arguments. He does, however, declare he’d listen to how people could merge with chimps.
Your gamete isn’t what wins a boxing match. That’d be your fist.
And other ideas I have after listening to Richard Dawkins tell Lawrence Krauss about his book chapter in ‘The War on Science’. If they’re accurately representing what trans people say, why don’t they invite a trans person on their show to say it? Why the intentional exclusion?
Have you heard their pronoun names?
Skeletor can never beat He-Man or She-Ra. If anyone’s genuinely startled that He-Man is he/him, boy howdy, let me double-startle ye and introduce ye to his sister, She-Ra. Not so important, really.
Rahm Emanuel: ‘Acceptance,’ not ‘advocacy’
He’s describing a culture of self-acceptance. However you choose to treat trans people, proudly accept yourself! You’re doing great! His discourse infantilizes and rejects us. There’s no plan let us co-lead, especially on issues that matter to us. He wants to let MAGA have their way.
My last time in a swimming pool in Florida
Florida has made so many laws against me, I don’t suppose I can go there anymore. Anti-transgender laws are meant to say that our existence is a logical impossibility. These laws are false, unworkable, bad-intentioned, and wrong.
How the bathroom verification cards would work
I think they want magnetic locks on public bathrooms. Don’t put me on a registry of ‘safe’ trans people. No one stands to gain anything from it. Everyone would be harassed in search of the Mythical Bad Trans.
Transphobia, the Interrupting Cow
Prejudice obstructs continuous and coherent thought. Transphobia upholds gender-conformist and authoritarian aspects of culture. It tries to link itself to important feelings, but it isn’t sincere.
Bathroom bills are intended to suppress trans life
They will require little or no proof. If the intent behind the law is to take you away, they don’t care about proof. They don’t care how you’re trans. They don’t care that you’re harming no one.
WDI co-author doesn’t support dressing however you like
In which Sheila Jeffreys says you can’t really wear what you like & there might be nothing wrong with being a transphobe. Jeffreys doesn’t believe people have the right to be trans. She thinks the reason to avoid a self-descriptor like “transphobic” is that it’s a naughty word.
I am not taking complaints about my face
Why the term ‘womanface’ is wrong. How is having a womanface or a manface different from having a face? What must I stop doing? I am trans and I woke up with my face. This is my manface?
