      PLEASE actually read this. She takes the “essentialisation of gender identity” gender to be ONE of TWO conceptual moves that UNDERPIN the claim that it’s about gender identity and not genitalia.pic.twitter.com/529nICyr8U

      If she was claiming Rothblatt essentializes gender identity in the speech that would just be false, Rothblatt says what matters is what’s in the head but also that there are infinitely many possibilities each unique to an individual, which is not essentialized.

      I'm sorry, but if your position requires you to claim that this is not gender essentialism, then you've lost all credibility. "The doctor did not do brain surgery and hence could not change our sex" - what more do you need to accept that Rothblatt is a bioessentialist???pic.twitter.com/ghmZHoUaKA

      Yeah unless you are a dualist, every single feature of the "personality" is a "physical feature of the brain" and there is nothing remarkable about this claim

      Right, like I think the strawman here is that "genderists" believe gender is some completely immutable metaphysical truth stamped on your soul from birth by God And of course I don't believe gender is that, I don't believe things like that exist Who does

      The irony is that TERFs do believe this about "biological sex" (it's an obvious, immutable, clear distinction "stamped on every cell of the body" etc) and are projecting - "Well if THAT isn't the immutable truth then what is?"

      Replying to @arthur_affect @ReinH and

      The thing being, TERFs also do believe in this kind of immutable truth about "between the ears" stuff - like sexual orientation - and find any suggestion of fluidity in that regard deeply threatening and violating etc

          Biological determinism serves the same ideological function as theological determinism using precisely the same arguments, they've simply switched out the object of discourse and hoped nobody noticed.

          Like, they are the ones stridently insisting fluidity of orientation can't possibly be a thing and if you claim it is you're advocating conversion therapy and abuse Their strident "protect lesbians" rhetoric is at the level where they don't even seem to think bisexuality exists

          They all clap and cheer when Glinner etc sneer at bi/pan people as "straight kids trying to seem cool" and yelling "queer is a slur and it doesn't describe a real thing" and so on

          This is actually my favourite gender critical logic hole. That one can have an imutable and fixed understanding of gender that is hardwired in to you, but it only applies to how you perceive other people.
