We recorded this on Sunday, one day before the school shooting in Nashville, and unfortunately our discussion of violent radicalization is more prescient than intended. It’s not all doom and gloom, though, I promise. That’s just how the conversation starts.
It was interesting to hear you discuss the external factors that can become a wedge between the person and their belief system. If health complications lead to desisting then it makes sense that the people who choose not to have medical interventions will become the majority of those persisting with trans identification. In order to protect the ideology, we might see the gender identity community evolving into a movement of people for whom socially identifying into a subculture is the ultimate goal and anything medical is for confused dysphoric co-opters.
I wonder whether greater awareness of, and research into, the female phenotype of autism will also contribute to this evolution. I sometimes visit reddit communities like r/aspergirls and I'm often struck by how many of the discussions of ASD struggles with sensory issues are happening in parallel with the trans discussions of the same issues, just framed differently because it's seen through different lenses. You can sometimes see the two worlds come so close to overtly overlapping. For example, there might be a thread on the benefits of deep pressure therapy (the squeeze machine invented by Temple Grandin, weighted blankets, compression clothes etc.) and it's not uncommon for there to be a few people saying they put a binder on when they are in sensory overload to help them relax. Recognition of female ASD is still in the early stage of emerging from out of the shadow of the default male understanding of autism, so it can only be a matter of time before people start joining the dots explicitly.
This is correct. They are dangerous. When my husband was in his "liminal" stage, considering he was hiding knives under the refrigerator in our working class Brooklyn apartment, after I discovered his 3 cross-dressing diaries, he said scary stuff. I was afraid, as every trans widow is, that he might do this suicide by cop, take as many along with you as you can. Yes, that is their disturbed, psychiatrically ill mindset. Veneration of death, Ritchie Herron (detransitioner) calls it.
'Transgenderism,' 'gender identity' ideology does need to be relegated to the dustbin of history. It is a dangerous and destructive movement that harms women and LGBs--their sex-based rights are being supplanted primarily by disordered, male, heterosexual, cross-dresser sexual fetishists. And young people are being indoctrinated into a destructive cult that will cause them a lifetime of mental and physical misery.
Why the equivocation about the harm 'transgendersim' has done to society--to women's rights and opportunities, their safeguarding, privacy, and dignity; and to LGBs and to the young people who have been sucked into the 'gender' cult--or pushed into it by parents--who suffer mentally and physically b/c of it. Stop being so reticent about what we all know has happened since the dangerous and pernicious 'trans' 'gender identity' ideology has been bulldozed onto all of us in sevice to a bunch of primarily male, heterosexual, cross-dresser, sexual fetishists--assisted by their 'transmaidens.' We know all to well what has happened to our culture since the scourge of 'transgenderism' has been visited upon us.

I really enjoyed this conversation. Thank you.
