This is why I am sticking exclusively with gender dysphoria as a unifying and inclusive term.<br /><br />This is in fact what we are dealing with. joannaShttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07470526724889188451noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2472400923228993687.post-83488454750791471092014-05-11T05:07:30.402-07:002014-05-11T05:07:30.402-07:00@joanna,

See for instance <a href="http://wecwecwec.tumblr.com/post/85232149331/survey-of-truscum-separatists" rel="nofollow">this follow up discussion</a> over at tumblr.<br /><br />You are right, though: The real fight is educating the non-transgender people.<br /><br />@Lauren<br /><br />I get your point. But it is fascinating to see how transgender -- which used to be the toxic term, now becomes the preferred term for young transsexuals, mainly because transsexual is associated with porn.Jack Molayhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03629363646482611722noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2472400923228993687.post-79539162165536841552014-05-10T17:49:24.334-07:002014-05-10T17:49:24.334-07:00That is interesting; As a male to female transsexu...That is interesting; As a male to female transsexual who is uneasy with the umbrella of "transgender", but not one to reject it out of hand, I find the idea of referring or identifying myself with anything demeaning to be unacceptable. However, I suppose it that group of people who embrace the identity are like a subgroup of people from my generation who were gay and embraced the indentity of queer, reclaiming it from those who used it as a term of hate directed at them.<br />Lauren TancyusLauren Elisabethhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03293724106380438921noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2472400923228993687.post-46824518400747805072014-05-10T04:57:16.871-07:002014-05-10T04:57:16.871-07:00Jack I know you find a lot of what is being writte...Jack I know you find a lot of what is being written by these people is inappropriate and discriminatory but if you reflect on it what does a 20 year old know about life in general? How educated are they in gender theory? anybody can post anything they want on the net but the true litmus test will be where all this chatter will sonehow influence the serious study of gender dysohoria.<br /><br />I am not telling you not to keep up with what is being written out there but at a certain point in time we need to block out the useless static that serves no purpose.<br /><br />The average civilian cares not one whit about gender theory and so the real fight is with those we need to educate on these matters.<br /><br />JoannajoannaShttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07470526724889188451noreply@blogger.com
