Any rational trans-movement would have cast this man to the wolves

That's just the problem, though: how can there BE any rational trans-movement? When "trans" itself is an inherently irrational concept? It's centered on confusion (at the very least) between gender roles and biological sex, and an inability to accept the fact of one's own biological sex. Sure, there's some variation in how far they take this irrationality (and how insistent/aggressive they are about it), but it's not as though it could EVER be rational. It's as hardcore woo-woo as it gets.

The only rational trans-movement that I can imagine is one which acknowledges the delusional nature of this mind set, treats it as unhealthy at best and dangerous at worst, and consistently opposes any encouragement of it (above all via attempts to dictate others' perceptions). THAT, I could actually get behind. Of course, this would be a much harder sell than the "being trans makes you the Speshulest Snowflake of ALL!!!" message central to the current approach.
