In a previous article, I wrote about how the non-trans community used the term “transgender” in the 1970s and 80s. In 1975 the term was used to describe the rock star Alice Cooper and the need for gender-neutral pronouns. Today I wanted to add a few more articles I’ve come across to illuminate how the non-trans, […]

They claim that transsexuals never wanted to be allies in a diverse community of people of non-cisgender history, experience and/or expression. They claim that real transsexuals never want non-transsexual people to regard them […]
Dear Readers – As you know, the transsexual community is under constant attack from the Borg collective known as the “transgender community”. I have now uncovered undeniable proof that those damn nonsensical transgender people have been working to enslave the transsexual community since at least 1986 when this group of gender terrorists declared their treasonous […]
Every so often I have encounters with the TS-not-TG group. I cherish these encounters because they often inspire me to do research. Sometimes transsexuals who argue for the destruction of the transgender community make statements that cause me to question my assumptions – which is a good thing! I will take your community apart bit […]
So, I just wanted to share an 1985 article in which out transsexual woman, Christine Jorgensen states the following: I am a transgender because gender refers to who you are as a human.
