These aren’t innocent questions. It’s an anti-trans agenda.
‘Gender-criticalism’ is linked to right-wing agendas. Today ‘the religious and neo-fascist right,’ with so-called gender-criticals, ‘believe the optimum number of trans people is zero,’ Brynn Tannehill says.
‘Gender-critical’ ideology is just dualism
The ‘GC’ worldview is a split between good and evil, physical and mental. It incredibly claims to vaporize all gender roles despite working to uphold gender. It focuses on what people can or can’t be, do, or have due to their sex.
The Gelflings are trans

‘Red flags’ in queer dating aren’t the problem

Empathy for cis people
Trans people have it because we don’t live in a trans bubble. My jaw hit the floor. I picked it up and put it back in. It fell out again. It rolled under the sofa and I have spent the last two weeks looking for it.

People need to be allowed to keep their ID cards
I hope everyone is aware of the threat to 🏳️⚧ ️trans Kansans’ IDs. If I had a Kansas ID, Kansas would ask me to surrender my ID. It’s nonsense. There’s never been a reckoning. Anti-trans moral panic is hotter than ever.

Art by Tucker Lieberman. Everything moves in the twilight: the beast, the net, the Moon, the Earth it orbits, you. Nothing dances in the same place twice.
6 things mystified me in the trans film ‘I Saw the TV Glow’
