Yes, several. Of both sexes and various proclivities (HSTS, AGP, and soooo many transmen)

I don't want to go into detail for fear of doxxing but knowing trans people in real life both as friends and acquaintances outside of the internet (and having discussions and debates with some of them) really cemented my gender critical views on various fronts.

It also made me more compassionate in some cases, but not at the cost of logic, truth, and my passion for female human rights.

Thanks so much for sharing!! Out of curiosity, are in you more LGBT spaces? Feel free not to answer if that is too personal. I don’t know anything about you obviously, but I could see maybe encountering so many if you are in those spaces, but maybe even just being in a major city means you probably know quite a few now lol. I’m glad you were able to have discussions. Were trans people generally willing to debate with you or were they more hostile? I know there is a reputation that they aren’t open to debate. Meeting trans people can totally your dispel your illusions (if you had them) about gender ideology I feel like. For me, encountering trans people in support groups really erased my ability to believe in the born in the wrong body type gender ideology because of how many of them behaved. I’m glad you still feel compassion at times even you hold to your beliefs and boundaries. I wish this issue/movement didn’t encroach on women’s rights the way it does.
