Great idea! Have you read Gender Hurts, by Sheila Jeffreys? She's outstanding.

I have! (& totally agree w. your assessment)

So much, in fact, that even after reading it cover-to-cover for free via my local public library, I still had to buy my own copy!

Not only for personal reference, and to support Jeffreys's work... but kind of as evidence. 'Cause how many other books are there which dare question, much less critique, the Church of Trans's sacred dogma? (And I'm NOT being rhetorical here-- genuinely asking!)

Honestly, the only other ones that I've been able to find are "When Harry Became Sally" by Ryan T. Anderson, "Galileo's Middle Finger" by Alice Dreger, and "The Madness of Crowds" by Douglas Murray. None of which really compare to "Gender Hurts", unfortunately. (The latter two aren't even about trans specifically, the former is from a conservative Catholic POV [and its second half somehow manages to undo whatever was good about its first half], and Dreger does a dismaying amount of kissing-up to the ladyfeelz-dudes [despite recounting their vile behavior towards her & others, of the type that we here are all too familiar with]).

Have you read any of these other titles, BTW? And if so, what did you think?

I haven't read those titles, no, but Janice Raymond's "The Transexual Empire" is available for free online reading here: https://janiceraymond.com/wp-content/uploads/2017/08/The%20Transsexual%20Empire.pdf
