I'm not gc and I'm closer to transmedicalists or trans realists. I don't think you can abolish gender.

Benjamin A Boyce is trying to coin the term "gender positive" (on YouTube).

yeah I've watched a lot of his content. I'm not sure I agree with him but I appreciate all the interviews he's done.

I'll need to look up his definition video.

A basic question I have for him is he can't really agree with gc that gender can and ought to be abolished. He's really far too essentialist for them. But he also kind of agrees with every anti trans ideology around.

I do agree that a lot of gender theory is an absolute mess.

I do wonder if a new gender theory will emerge. More robust and scientific. But it's so politically difficult. I think it's true that defining the "gender is," can quickly become the "gender ought."
