I see we're rehashing discourse about women & their male partners (despite many men being at Pride). so I'm re-upping "Penises, Privilege, and Feminist & + Purity Politics" – which gets to the root of this antagonism (no paywall): https://juliaserano.medium.com/penises-privilege-and-feminist-lgbtq-purity-politics-bafd1f25fe3e

↓ ↓ ↓ This ↓ ↓ ↓
"While I can understand why some individuals might feel uneasy about trans people (as we challenge taken-for-granted assumptions and social norms), I’ve had a difficult time wrapping my brain around how anyone could become so obsessed and irrationally paranoid about our existence."
This is where I get stuck as well. WHY would anyone care how someone they don't know defines their own gender? If there is a deviant in this scenario, it's def not the trans person.

the idea that sexual orientation is "fixed" from a young age but that gender identity isn't is pure wishcasting. I discuss this in my "Trans People and Biological Sex: What the Science Says" video at the 26 minute mark (watch thru 48 min for full context): https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZymYiwoRoC0

since Jonathan Haidt is spreading "social contagion" pseudoscience, time to re-up these two essays. "All the Evidence Against Transgender Social Contagion" links to research studies showing otherwise & how the theory was invented by anti-trans parents:
https://juliaserano.medium.com/all-the-evidence-against-transgender-social-contagion-f82fbda9c5d4

juliaserano,
@juliaserano@mastodon.social avatar

...& since Haidt is claiming it occurs in "clusters of girls," he should read, "Explaining Assigned Sex Ratio Shifts in Trans Children (& Why Trans Male/Masculine Youth Are Relentlessly Depicted as 'Girls')," which debunks both the statistics & framing:
