      Helen Joyce, the person quoted here, received a positive review for her recent book in the New York Times. "An intelligent, thorough rejoinder to an idea that has swept across much of the liberal world seemingly overnight," -- Jess Signal.https://twitter.com/PennyRed/status/1532681679592210433 …

      In this shocking clip, two prominent British anti-trans campaigners openly discuss their goal of ‘reducing or keeping down the number of people who transition’ because ‘every one of those people is a huge problem to a sane world…the fewer of those people there are, the better.’ https://twitter.com/joss_prior/status/1532511819583062025 …

      The idea that trans people shouldn't exist is anti-science and eliminationist.

          Neither I nor Helen have said they shouldn't exist. The issue is how to navigate them and what prompts such feelings.

          (I, like Helen, am fine with rebelling against gender norms; but against the want to transcend sex.)
