If we have a fundamental moral disagreement, why are we still talking?
Holly Lawford-Smith shows up for the self-appointed ‘heterodoxy’ at Colorado State University. The Heterodox Academy supports ‘gender-critical feminism,’ whose entire purpose is to exclude trans women and misrepresent trans men.
Barnes: ‘Just think why’ some don’t want their marriage to turn gay!
Journalist Hannah Barnes gets in a dig against same-sex marriage. Why does it matter whether one spouse’s gender change happens before or after the couple’s legal split? This anti-trans article is homophobic.
Books like this cause ‘Irreversible Damage’
Even if you see through it, it wastes your time. What definition of “traditional gender dysphoria” is invoked here? It’s politicized misinformation about transgender identity, using kids as a punching bag.
On Kathleen Stock’s ‘Material Girls’
My reality matters too. She claimed to ‘enthusiastically support’ protecting ‘trans people against violence,’ yet she wants to funnel us into a transgender bathroom.
Helen Joyce’s anti-trans messaging is predictable
She was interviewed by Jay Fantom on ‘The Story Box’ podcast. Every Helen Joyce interview has this basic content. This one’s from 2023. She works from her principle that cis people’s feelings matter most.
A concern troll’s cognitive dissonance: Helen Joyce on trans kids
If your mind is made up, why do you pretend to be open to more data? I used to wonder why people got so anxious over the idea of trans people, and now I realize it’s because they believe contradictory things about us.
English only, two sexes: A mashup of two executive orders

Pausing in the darkness
Trump’s latest anti-trans executive order calls us ‘anti-Christian’. Trump has labeled as ‘anti-Christian’: trans inclusion, trans visibility, supporting queer kids, and even holding Christians accountable to the law.
It’s official: All trans people kicked out of U.S. military
February 26, 2025, effective immediately. If the military decides you’re trans, it must kick you out. If you’re trans and you know it, you can resign within the month or else wait to be fired.
Now, there’s a no-sports order
Let’s kick it open, bounce it against the wall, and dunk on it. The anti-trans movement has never been about sports. it enacts arbitrary exclusion to make trans people less safe. It’s a political assault.
In 10 days, four anti-trans exec orders & a bathroom ban for fed employees
Keep looking up. Trump 2025 has been in office for a bit over a week. These will affect trans people intersectionally or in unexpected ways. There’s a lot of material, so I’ve listed the executive orders with clickable images.
Tonight’s ban on adult gender transition (yes, 18-year-olds are adults)
By executive order, the federal government will not support transition. ‘Maiming’ is unspecific. ‘Sterilizing’ is generally untrue. ‘A growing number’ is fact-free; if the president had numbers, he’d provide them.
