More people should be screened for PTSD, especially considering the collective trauma we are experiencing.

How Conservatives Created (and Cancelled) Gender
Alexander Avila

The link below will jump you straight to the point: Dr John Money, the bigoted man who brought the word gender into modern medicine. Notably, this video discusses surgery to make the bodies of intersex children conform to social norms, but fails to discuss surgery to make the bodies of endosex boys conform to social norms. Stop leaving circumcision out.

Here is something I need white people to stop doing. Stop taking the critical rhetoric of Black people and playing bullshit word swap mad libs games, replacing the subject of the rhetoric (Black people) with some other group.

That is not how arguments work. That not how history works. People are not interchangable parts with interchangable oppressions.

Stop abstracting away Blackness!

Figure out how to co-struggle. Learn from Black people how to fight anti-Black oppression.

People who think drag queens are doing "woman face" are actually just female chauvinists who need to control other people out of narcissism.

This is an honest question with only sincere interest behind it, but as a straight, white woman I understand my motives may be suspect, especially if you don’t already know me. So here goes…

“LGBTQ2S+” as a descriptive word to include lots of different people is unwieldy (sorry, English major here). Is it bad form to simply say “queer community” now? My favorite cousin came out in the 80s, so he’s an older gay man and may be out of touch. That’s the word he uses. Is it no longer acceptable?

ttpphd,
@ttpphd@mastodon.social avatar

@KatM

There is no shared hive mind, so whatever answers you get (including this one) are not universal. That said, queer community is generally ok imo. Might also try gender diverse people if that's the group you are referring to, or people with diverse gender / sexual identities is another phrase that is both banal and encompasses most of the LGBTQ+ alphabet.

ttpphd,
@ttpphd@mastodon.social avatar

@KatM Thanks for your thoughtfulnes!

Very rarely, I have run into people who object to the word queer because it has a history of being used as a slur. These folks tend to be older or more conservative in their views.

To be honest these days I've had more people object to the word lesbian (instead preferring "queer woman") than to the word queer. So the word queer or queer community is probably your safest bet.

Some Narrative Conventions of Scientific Discourse
Rom Harré, 1990

"The academic ‘we’ might seem at first glance to be just a version of the editorial ‘we’. Like the latter it is mutedly egocentric but it is not mainly used to imply teamwork. Rather, it is used to draw the listener into complicity, to participate as something more than an audience. "

https://www.taylorfrancis.com/chapters/edit/10.4324/9780203981115-14/narrative-conventions-scientific-discourse-rom-harr%C3%A9

This is my new favorite thing.

"The moral order of the scientific community is or appears to be élitist, at least in one sense of that term. The valuation of an opinion concerning some matter taken to be scientific is determined by resort to expertise, which is itself guaranteed by a combination of communal certification and personal demonstrations of mastery."

Who counts as an expert? We are left with appeals to experts, who are deemed experts by appeals to other experts, and so on, a ladder of induction toward "expertise".
