How Conservatives Created (and Cancelled) Gender
Alexander Avila
The link below will jump you straight to the point: Dr John Money, the bigoted man who brought the word gender into modern medicine. Notably, this video discusses surgery to make the bodies of intersex children conform to social norms, but fails to discuss surgery to make the bodies of endosex boys conform to social norms.

#ukpol#transphobia Why does anyone still think the Guardian is a progressive newspaper? Their latest fun is an “exposé” of being able to buy HRT on the internet.

I'm extremely extroverted, love the outdoors, cities, festivals, etc.
I'm a trans woman and I don't hide it at all. I experience gender dysphoria and have run-ins with transphobes and #terfs quite often, especially the former.
