the services sought for detransition are quite literally the same ones sought for transition. detransitioners work in tandem with us on advocacy. there aren't enough people to keep a detransition-only clinic busy. this should clue you in that this clinic will not be used for consenting detransition

There's cultural relativism and then there's naive anglocentric cultural dipshitism where you go "well, they have a word for a thing you put on your foot to protect it from the environment, but that word doesn't NECESSARILY translate to shoe because they make them differently from how we make shoes"

Every Nordic gender clinic that "proves" transition is somehow harming patients is self-reporting that their treatment of patients is abysmal. They're gaining international recognition for exposing their own maliciously bad approach to healthcare while pretending it's inherent to transition.

Interesting cycle where the signifiers of non-normative gender are vilified by patriarchal society, and so people push for "reclamation" but in this selective way where those signifiers become a symbol, a literal fetish for progressive politics rather than understood as an actual experience.

Useful note on portraying trans women: Shaving is a widely available method by which facial hair can be removed, which in many cultures is not only something people with facial hair can get away with, but actually broadly accepted. For this reason, it's commonly done even by closeted trans women

She has a rationale for it as part of her book promo. Bonus: she's friends with the mom of one the killers. www.theguardian.com/lifeandstyle...

She has two names tattooed on her wrists, celebrating the births of her children. On her right hand, it says Alisha in smudgy black ink; on the left, it says Brett. For 14 years of Brianna’s life, she was Brett. Through the book, Ghey makes a clear distinction. She refers to Brett as he, Brianna as she. Does it seem like two different people? “It does, though that’s not necessarily because she went from Brett to Brianna, it’s just the natural stages of life. It was important for me to talk about Brett as well, because to understand where Brianna was at, you need to understand the whole life.”

In Under a Pink Sky, Ghey doesn’t mention the killers by name, so I won’t. But she does name the mother of the girl, for a good reason. They have become friends.

“She was completely addicted to her phone, and it was such a distraction. When she was going into the classroom, she was looking at her phone under the table or she was going to the toilet to film TikTok videos.” I wonder why the trans kid in a violently transphobic society needed online support.

Two teenagers were radicalized by the transphobic political climate into seeing a 15 year old girl as less than human. They killed the girl, and then the girl's grieving mother chose to embark on a moral panic crusade against "self-harm", acquitting the actual perpetrators of her daughter's demise.

Please learn this already

Venn diagram, two circles overlapping slightly.

Circle 1 is labelled: Transmisogyny, the structure of oppression against trans women and transfeminized nonbinary people in society, and the narratives built to support that oppression.

Circle 2 is labelled: Degendering, the attribution of "mannish" characteristics to women who are perceived to be undesirable, which is distinct from actually treating them like men, as it is a consistent net negative for the women it happens to

The overlap is labelled "Transmisogynist degendering"

I feel we really have to do away with the term 'queer rep', the phrase seems to make people associate it with queer characters performing good behavior, and also take it as personal attacks when someone says 'M/F and F/M/F are not sapphic' because they think this is 'representative' of themselves.

only quote skeeting to make a related point, not to dunk on you bc you're right: really the issue is that a lot of trans men feel unsafe around other men but then turn it into an issue of 'we're not REALLY men' (transphobic) instead of asking the question, 'why are men's spaces unsafe for men'

here's a blistering hot take: as much as we joke about "detransitioning from a haircut," cutting your hair short is a significantly more irreversible (in the short term) process than taking hormones for a month. You're not getting the hair back without time, but stopping a short HRT regimen? Easy.

The thing about outwardly visible transition, whether medical or presentational, is that it's a lot harder for others to deny than just declaring your identity. They're sort of forced to Deal With It Similar to the difference between saying "I'm gay" and bringing a same-gender partner with you.
