This is someone who never once questioned my gender identity, who immediately switched to the right name and pronouns when I came out, who's written one of the only articles about a trans person I've ever seen in a mainstream outlet that doesn't deadname the subject.

I deal with TERF harassment every day. I think I have a feel for what TERFs are like. And this is not it.

So even if you disagree with me on this, I hope you can at least understand why, from my perspective, Jesse does not seem like a transphobe or a TERF.

A lot of people have said that I'm naïvely allowing myself to be manipulated by an insidious TERF who's using me to make it look like he's not transphobic. But he first interviewed me before I was even out, so I find that implausible.

@jessesingal before saying more because from my perspective, it still looks like he's been somewhat unfairly maligned.Show this thread

i think it's totally within your right to determine who you feel is a terf, and within reason, our community should respect that
