I'd suggest prospective posters take a look at some of the OP's posts with their intense fury and repeated implications about the motivations and politics of women posting on here.
I'd suggest this is more likely to be about screen capture not genuine debate. But then I've become a bit of a cynic of late.....
I'm not sure anything I can say will convince you otherwise, and would as a matter of principle advise against posting anything you might come to regret on an open forum in any case, but I thought this might be a genuinely informative exercise to spin off from an existing discussion - and I've recieved multiple requests from other posters on this forum to create this thread.
I can't guarantee that it won't be screenshotted or otherwise used for malicious purposes by someone else - there are clearly people on this very forum who regularly trawl other places looking for comments to deride and sneer at, as I've already seen this happen once today on another thread - but I can guarantee that I have no interest in using other people's struggles as a source of cheap point-scoring.
I've responded openly and in good faith to every question asked even in the face of repeated rudeness, have respected and observed requests when issued, have clarified points when meaning was initially unclear, and been honest about my own views and experiences of gender dysphoria as a child. I've been careful about mentioning topics likely to cause offence while participating in the robust discussion that this space proudly hosts.
If you are still unsure of my intentions, I might suggest rereading my engagement with posters here without the default assumption that I am attempting to cause harm, interacting in bad faith, or indeed particularly seething with fury.
There are a lot of very angry and upset, often quite young trans people on the internet seeking to lash out at their perceived enemies; I used to be one of them, over twenty years ago. I grew very tired of that a long, long time ago and constantly despair at the adversarial tone that has over time settled to be taken as a default between the feminisms; all it seems to do is obfuscate meaning, drive injury and insult and make any attempt at communication into an argument of contradications.
It's evident to me that we need to heal and find ways to actually discuss serious matters that affect a wide range of people with different needs in different ways. So, this is my attempt to create a positive space within which to do so. It is not my intention to dominate discussion, nor appropriate anyone's experiences. I checked with multiple posters before posting this and was given enthusiastic go-ahead to do so.
If anyone has any questions, or indeed just wants to hurl some abuse at a trans woman who has heard it all before, then you're more than welcome. I might even agree with you on half of it.
