Most of us aren't "anti-trans" - we are "anti what some trans activists are trying to do because it harms women and children, free speech and objective science."

With that caveat, I think that UnHerd.com leans liberal and they publish GC pieces. Also MEDIUM allows GC pieces, at least until trans activists shut them down.

Not traditionally liberal, it's the "Intellectual Dark Web," but Quillette allows gender critical to publish. The same with The Spectator.

I am anti-trans in the sense that I think their ideas are ridiculous. I will call you by whatever pronoun you wish, I'm not going to touch a fucking penis to prove I'm not a bigot ffs.

PS No one should ever feel they HAVE to sleep with anyone.

I had a very Lefty, very old male friend, call me a "bigot" over the transgender issue, and he's out of my life now.

Whereas I believe that transgenders should have every single human and civil right (just not women's) I will not use preferred pronouns. I will politely explain why to the transgender person; it's because I believe language matters, and once we give up the pronouns used to describe women, we lose our ability to describe ourselves.

It's already happening in the US and worse - in California and New York City failure to use preferred pronouns can result in a fine and jail term (California) and very large fine ($250,000) in NYC.

And the US has a First Amendment right to free speech. Imagine in a country without free speech protections what could happen if the pronoun police are allowed to run free.
