      This dynamic works because the prejudice against trans people is that we're unhinged, unreasonable, and super-powerful, constantly forcing victim-cis to bend to our will for no comprehensible reason.https://twitter.com/AriDrennen/status/1370938747194208259 …

      Evan Urquhart added,

      Ari Drennen @AriDrennen
      Do the credulous cis people like Matt Yglesias flooding Jude @sadydoyle’s mentions right now not think it’s weird to ignore the fact that *every* trans writer has the exact same stories about Jesse Singal? Do you think we all got together and decided to slander this one guy?

      You can do your best to present a rational, calm, reasonable, decorous face to implicitly combat it (I do this), but have a bad day or be misunderstood and the prejudice will snap back as strong as if you'd been a raving unreasonable extremist your whole life.

      Many trans people may start believe this prejudice about our own community- that we're particularly unreasonable, given to shrill demands and overreactions. It's not true. We're good people, normal people. We face an amount of prejudice and hate that can feel insurmountable.

      Anyway. I wanted to say this bc, as much as I have worked and will continue to work to present myself as uber-calm, uber-rational trans guy (tm), I don't want to be misunderstood as someone who has bought into self-hating prejudices.

      I'm not 'one of the good ones'. We're all good ones! I'm trying my best to fight prejudice and ignorance in a way that capitalizes on my own gifts and proclivities, as a science journalist who is also a trans guy.
