As a pro, there’s a chance that it might make it a little bit more acceptable for LGB people to be more openly gender critical. I think the potential benefits are limited though.

Otherwise, there’s massive risk involved. For example there’s the risk that we’d get an idiot on TV, or someone with more extreme views than most of us getting on TV, which could paint the movement in a negative light.

Yupppppp, I think it'd be VERY easy for our movement to be misrepresented. For example, one of the stances this sub has is not endorsing any particular ideology... but many ideological groups (trans activists are just one, radfems are another) would probably leap at the chance to claim that our struggles as a minority group are "proof" supporting their ideology's claims. And then misrepresent DTT as being a part of that ideology.
