The above represents practically all that’s wrong about the transgender coinage myth that’s been propagated over the last 20 years. Let me just put that myth to rest with 3 simple bullet points: Here’s the trans+gender lexical compound being used in 1965 to describe transsexuals. Here’s a 1975 newspaper article from a trans leader reporting that “transgenderist” […]
By way of introduction to this post: I got to spend last week with Dr. Rawson who flew across the country to spend some time with the Houston transgender archive*. We spent a lot of time talking about the Prince fountainhead myth that’s been propagated over the last couple of decades. We talked about how some […]
I wanted to take a moment and address what it means to be a non-Separatist; that is, what it means to be an Inclusionist – part of the transgender community. The Houston transgender community has been an explicitly Inclusionist community since the 1960s. We toyed with separatism in the mid-1980s when West-Coast Separatists tried to force the Houston trans community to give up […]
For example, this Spring a few self-promoting and self-aggrandizing “transgender” bloggers, authors and “gender outlaw” entertainers (who actually financially and professionally profit by enforcing transgender socio-politics and umbrella-ism theory) are obsessing over how to stop the inevitable transsexual liberation by creating petty drama, speculating, concocting ‘out of this world’ and laughable history revisionism, taking actions […]
Fantasy: “GLAAD’s rule ‘only say transgender, never say transsexual’” – GLAAD according to Ashley Love Reality: “… some transsexual people still prefer to use the term to describe themselves… It is best to ask which term the individual prefers.” – GLAAD according to reality Just say’n.
So, Ashley Love supposedly held a rally outside of a GLAAD meeting. She writes: Though GLAAD does some good work, primarily for gays and those who support transgender socio-politics, we hold this education rally to inform attendees that the medical condition transsexualism is actually not about third gender politics or homosexuality. Our legitimate birth challenge stems from being […]
Love made yet another post asserting (without evidence, of course) that she’s a victim of the word “transgender,” that the evil transgender umbrella is evil and transsexuals were colonized: So, I replied… Answer the following 4 questions: 1. When did transgender become an umbrella term? 2. When did transsexual stop being an umbrella term? 3. Exactly how […]
I’m sure Marti won’t be offended when I point to the HBS/separatist clique as a hugely American, white, privileged former male movement. These people give no respect to those before them who lived for decades as women with NO recourse to hormones, surgery or even a sympathetic ear. The very women who kicked off at […]
