Regretable

Yesterday my YouTube feed presented me with an interesting interview conducted with a neuroscientist who self identifies as AGP. That descriptor was of course regretable because he simply could have talked about cross gender fantasies or use Julia Serrano's "female embodiment fantasies" terminology instead.

He was extremely well spoken and had no intention of transitioning and rarely if ever dressed in female clothing. He also explained his situation with impressive self awareness and research but clearly there was some stigma there written between the lines of his eloquent talking points. That he chose, perhaps innocently, to give AGP and its pseudoscientific conclusions sea legs is to continue to throw many trans people under the bus along with their transitions.

Gender critical feminists in the comments section were also too happy to piss in his corn flakes with their fear mongering about women's spaces when this had nothing to do with his situation. That some people are both mean spirited and not very intelligent has not exactly been the earth shattering discovery of my lifetime.
