So much of gender critical infighting is kayfabe.

Here is the Executive Order: DEFENDING WOMEN FROM GENDER IDEOLOGY EXTREMISM AND RESTORING BIOLOGICAL TRUTH TO THE FEDERAL GOVERNMENT
Today, the roots of gender identity ideology have been ripped from the soil of the federal bureaucracy. This is a seismic shift, but the battle isn’t over—we must continue to push for reform to ensure the ground stays barren, leaving no room for these ideas to take hold again.

30 years ago today, at the age of 19, I had "sex reassignment surgery.". I have never had an orgasm with a sexual partner, not even once in my life. Anyone who thinks boys should be put on puberty blockers or have surgery cannot understand their own cruelty.

I transitioned 30 years ago. There's never been a time with greater public or government support for "trans people" like me. In fact, even the conservative SCOTUS ruled in favor of "trans rights." .And yet, trans activists claim we're in the midst of a "trans genocide." Perverse.

Today Chase Strangio is learning something really important. By avoiding her critics for years and years, the first time she’s had her ridiculous arguments tested is at the most critical juncture of her career. This is what comes from shutting down discourse.
Holy cow. Strangio is making the SEX BASED discrimination claim between males and females who seek to be males.

A "gender non-conforming child" can only exist in a social context with strict and narrow gender norms. If those norms were not strict, then a wide variety of behavior would be considered normal and unworthy of being labelled as "gender non-conforming.".

What most of us have known for a long time, and what the general public is beginning to learn, is that the root of “no debate” is that gender ideology, when confronted by anyone willing to mildly challenge it, cannot be credibly defended. And so nobody will.

Last year, CBS produced a 60 Minutes piece about detransition. GLAAD tried to kill the story.
This is not the first time Bill Maher has spouted inaccurate, anti-trans rhetoric. But this time he's targeting youth. Pundits who fearmonger about trans youth and surgeries need to learn the facts. It's not a trend. It's not a phase. Youth are not rushed into medical transition.

Having nipples is one sex-related characteristic common to both women and men, so it’s ironic that a “non-binary affirming” surgery is to remove the nipples altogether. Another irony is that only natal females undergo this procedure, making this a uniquely female ritual.

To say that Jazz is trans is mind-boggling to me. Take a young boy and thrust him into the role of child-reborn-as-girl and instill within him that his only worth as a human is to portray that role. The child was treated like a marionette by activists and the media. Trans? How?.

The only way to become "transgender" is through social acquisition of the concept. Nobody is born transgender. There are no "trans kids". It's an acquired identity that can only exist because of our social and cultural context. Transgender is essentially a social phenomenon.
