anyway, for more on why philosophy is the primary academic field legitimizing the anti-trans backlash in the anglosphere, check out the great zine by the folks at @being.transinphilosophy.org

for some reason analytic philosophers still think it's acceptable to opine about gender while ignoring the last 75 years of research in the philosophy of gender
This is virulently anti-trans: not simply arguing that there's a reasonably natural concept of transition-independent biological sex (fine) but also that there is no reasonably natural biological or social concept whose extensions is trans and cis women dailynous.com/2025/09/19/p...

Your friendly reminder of exactly how centrist ‘just asking questions’ does harm. Cosplaying curiosity for attention comes with a death toll for trans people.
The NYT was cited in the Supreme Court ruling used to strip trans people of healthcare. This is EXACTLY WHY the “just asking questions” crowd of centrist edgelord journalists are dangerous. They launder transphobia through faux neutral “debate” and act like it’s intellectual curiosity

Supporting trans kids is so easy when you’re in their actual life. The bullies in the White House and Supreme Court think the State should be used to destroy them instead. Fuck them. We will find ways to support them anyway ✨
“When [my tween] socially transitioned in the second grade, years ago now, other kids in the class didn’t blink an eye. Zero bullying. Now bullies run the show—in dominant online spaces in our discipline, in our state legislature, in the U.S. government.” @beegs1.bsky.social #beingtransinphilosophy

I've been harassed and sexualized by students and on campus, was drawn into wildly transphobic discussions by random colleagues, people assuming my relation to my genitals and just putting it out there, and am confronted with awkward silence when talking about transphobic harrassement and barriers

I am lucky to have one of the more accepting academic environments in critical theory, but even they were an absolute disgrace when dealing with trans students criticizing an obviously transphobic seminar

I think it's super cool when philosophers use creative formats to share their expertise and engage the public on serious social justice issues. Check it out!

I’m honored to have been been included alongside so many amazingly talented and thoughtful authors! The pieces in this zine are beautiful and tragic and powerful. They are also urgent and I would encourage you to read and share widely, especially if you are working in philosophy.
