AGP awareness needs so much more press. They've already started their "it's pseudo-science" to dismiss it, but people need to know about it. That's why I'm furious Rand Paul didn't begin his questioning of Dr. Levine with "What is autogynephilia?"

Any good sources to debunk the pseudo-science claim? They claim Blanchard has been debunked, but never show how and where, as far as I've seen. Is there any recent research on this, or is Blanchard the latest?

I wish I knew about any updates to Blanchard. Instead all you find are TRA with their questionable studies.

I hesitate to link to this vile man "Julia" (eyeroll) Serano, but he has a list that he claims goes against Blanchard, including one that says women (you know, "cis women") are also sexually attracted to themselves. Here is one of the studies on his blog: https://www.researchgate.net/publication/260718404_Evidence_Against_a_Typology_A_Taxometric_Analysis_of_the_Sexuality_of_Male-to-Female_Transsexuals

Here is the disturbed man's actual blog that lists more: https://juliaserano.blogspot.com/2015/07/the-real-autogynephilia-deniers.html Oddly he has a PhD in a STEM field.
