      So if I tell you about being trans, and you, as a consequence of hearing about this, resolve to be trans, and this is identified by Singal as an example of the "social contagion" of being trans... Then I don't give a fuck about your assertion to the contrary.

      So back in the day, when homophobes said "Gay teachers will make your children gay, they're dangerous!", the audience was supposed to identify that as social contagion rhetoric, which is not bad and totally okay because it "mediates virtually all of human civilization"?

      You are not even fooling yourself. You know this rhetoric explicitly equates being gay to a transmissible disease. It was intended to be negative. It was intended to put disincentives in place for gay people existing openly in public. I know you don't believe this was fine.

      Well why the fuck wouldn't it? If everything is subject to social contagion why wouldn't being around gay people make you more likely to be gay? (Here we go, this is the pointy end of the wedge right here)

      So why call it a "contagion" and not an "understanding", "awareness" or "insight"? Here's the answer: because contagions are bad. Singal knew exactly what the fuck he was writing.

      Again, it really isn't - the term was coined specifically to describe forms of madness - "irrational" behaviors that couldn't be explained otherwise, specifically St. Vitus' dance in medieval times

          Trying to change the term so it refers to anything people do because other people do it, like brushing your teeth, is a modern attempt to "rescue" the term
