Society is far from the anti-trans hellscape activists portray it as, but if we follow the road they’ve started down, eventually it will be. | @jamie-paul.bsky.social

"We see a ... divide today within the movement for trans equality, between activists fighting for the right of trans people to join mainstream society and activists who want to remake mainstream society in the image of trans people." What a good piece. www.queermajority.com/essays-all/h...

by @jamie-paul.bsky.social “How did the left-wing trans movement squander a society’s worth of open-minded goodwill? Perhaps the biggest blunder was their refusal to compromise, especially over the most contentious policy areas, such as trans women in female-only spaces or youth gender medicine"

@vokabre.bsky.social - Found another example of Wikipedia's unreliability for political topics...When I read it I thought of you, sir. Way too many people trust Wiki too much--& blindly. americandreaming.substack.com/p/wikipedias...

I think the observations here apply to a lot of groups that coincided with the tumblr (now tiktok) era of online activism www.queermajority.com/essays-all/h...

Wow quite an opening paragraph. Great article on how trans activism is a complete failure. www.queermajority.com/essays-all/h... Even if they change I would not welcome these activists back - cruel, ignorant social climbers who hurt an actual minority for klout.

Where radical activism caused only anti-LGBT backlash, liberal-minded trans activism must do the work of persuasion and compromise. | @jamie-paul.bsky.social

Hysteria over Anne Frank’s bisexuality shows the religious right’s true colors. | @jamie-paul.bsky.social

We tend to think of Victorian England as the zenith of buttoned-up prudery, but the era was surprisingly queer when you scratch beneath the surface. I wrote about it for @bidotorg.bsky.social: bi.org/en/articles/...

“Old Maid” was first used in the 1520s to designate a woman who remains single “well beyond the usual marrying age.” In the 1500s, that meant late teens or early 20s. What does it mean now? Pls read my essay "In Defense of Old Maids" @queermajority.bsky.social: www.queermajority.com/essays-all/i...

Nobody 'becomes' bi because it's trendy, hot, or cool. (it is, but that's a different subject). This is just a damaging stereotype, and thanks to @jamie-paul.bsky.social for showing us the research--and the facts! #bisexual

Some critics think that younger generations are more bi because it’s trendy. New research shows otherwise: www.queermajority.com/essays-all/b... | @jamie-paul.bsky.social

"If you don’t watch out, no decent man will marry you and you’ll die an old maid” my generation of girls in the 1950s heard. I wrote "In Defense of Old Maids" for @queermajority.bsky.social: history of "old maid" 1520 - my time, & how we see single women now. www.queermajority.com/essays-all/i...

By me for @queermajority.bsky.social: "My argument about why sex and perception of sex both matter will not please either side in the current debate, and that may be all the more reason why it’s needed. Evolution has moulded our minds as well as our bodies." www.queermajority.com/essays-all/i...
