      @jessesingal I find this sort of thing frustratinghttps://twitter.com/nberlat/status/768119729030651911 …

      that is, reading stuff like this article uncharitably. Though maybe it's a personal thing

      @nberlat "dedicated to delegitimizing trans identities as an innate trait." very clearly stated. gender ID = innate trait

      I think there is a more charitable reading of this: trans IDs as (in part the result of) an innate trait/etiology

      i mean, you can ask him. but he is criticizing an org for saying "transgender IDs" aren't innate

      and now you are saying that *he* doesn't think ID is innate, but has biological factors. huh?

      you're right, I don't know what he thinks. But I think he is criticizing them for far more than just that

      Totally. He's making the mistakes progressives are making left and right, backing himself into a dumb position

      I think it's a general issue with journos stepping into the topic, I don't think you're immune

      I mean, he says it's one factor. The article seems fairly careful to me.

      yeah, totally careful to tell trans people "nothing external" can affect their GD. that's the opposite of careful

          So, you've changed the point of your argument here. Now your objection is around gender dysphoria, not gender.

          I guess I just read that as saying that reparative therapy fails. again, I think its uncharitable to read it so narrow

          I mean hrt is something external that effective cures GD, so I didn't read that as taking an absurd position
