I appreciate how transmedicalists mostly act like sensible, respectable people. I appreciate the ways in which they're grounded to reality, because that's really something you can't take for granted these days. And if they want to live their lives transitioned and it makes them happy, and they're not for medically experimenting on children or sacrificing women's rights or gay rights, then I'm ok with that. I hope they live their best lives and are happy. It's still sexist, but like... they're not the only sexists in the world, and as long as they're relatively nonintrusive about it, I can live with it.

But like... they take it so seriously! If anything, I think they believe in their genders more than the others. Like many think that at some point, neuroscience is going to catch up and prove they have cross-sex brains or something. (Which like... even if your brain was demonstrably more along the lines of what's male-typical, that wouldn't make it a "male brain" any more than a tall woman has a "male height.")

This is some good shit right here. I'm gonna use this next time someone tries to say they're 'truly trans' because of their brain. My fingers have a demonstrably 'male' ring to index finger ratio. Doesn't mean I'm literally male or meant to be male. My hands aren't suddenly male either. I have female hands because they're attached to a female body.

Your hands aren't "attached" to your body, they are your body. And every single cell of them contains XX.

Thanks for sharing your thoughts!

That's an interesting point, makes sense. In the very long run, I think gender identity ideology will die down in popularity but I wouldn't be surprised if a few people hang on to this truscum view.
