Not to mention the lasting harm done to both the trans and intersex communities.

Or if they actually read what he wrote they would know his end goal was to end trans people. He was highly selective with the trans people he gave the ok to transition.

An endorsement.

Instead of us pointing out that he began from a flawed premise and proceeded to sexually abuse two children to prove his crackpot idea.

Haha. First time I’ve ever gotten that. I’ll take it.

No. I’m much happier single. Trying not to say “I’ll never date again”. But I have more of an idea of the kind of person I want to be with. And hopefully how to identify the green and red flags better.
