And right on schedule, the "hate group" defamation machine revs its engines. Oh, and a balanced article about binding propagates "hate and ignorance." These people demonstrate over and over how little they care about tween and teen females--and desisters/detransitioners.pic.twitter.com/2nKZLjhfxT

Reporter for the Times, Atlantic, and "writer on the L Word" (irony alert) tells "cis" journos they need to have their work vetted by him. NOT OK to write a balanced piece on binding which mentions possible harms. Call me!pic.twitter.com/hZRoncUB9d
