As one of the co-founders of Let Toys Be Toys I am utterly disappointed that you are now promoting the ideology which says that a girl who wants short hair, likes fixing things and isn't into sparkles and dresses is 'in the wrong body' and must be a boy. Heartbroken.

Some truly are in the wrong body. If you cannot see that but instead believe "ALL girls should be girls, even if they don't feel they are girls!" then it's good that there are people left in the company who have a heart. At least they can truly say "Heartbroken"

What, exactly, does being a girl feel like? Asking for a friend.

Can't really tell ya, cause I'm a boy. But I guess it would feel the same as me being comfortable with the body I'm in even if I was a girl.

Sex ≠ gender I really hoped this didn't need to be addressed for the Nth time. Why are trans people so revolting to some people?

Gender is the social construct. Sex is what's in someone's pants. Talk to any transperson and they don't want to talk what's in their pants, like a lot of people. So let's keep the talk civil, without the reproductive organs.

Not a strange response, since the belief "what's in your pants = gender" is kinda rude and the meaning of gender is more than that. And people want to keep their genitalia out of it... and I respect the notion.

No the belief is "gender" is social constructs applied to people of one sex or the other. Let Toys Be Toys was not set up to celebrate gendered social constructs.

But why the transphobia then? I can hate the bullshit social construct and at the same time be fine with transpeople. Someone who is trans can also dislike gender social constructs. The world is not a zero sum game, so why is this such a big deal?
