Apparently a lot of the anti-psychiatry movement is epically transphobic–instead of saying being trans is a psychiatric disorder, they just claim that it doesn’t exist, and is a form of body mutilation. This is just as bad as the psychiatric view, and…well, I’d say, even WORSE. BOTH mentalities reify physical sex, and consider personal identity either pathological or irrelevant, or both. When will people EVER get the idea that genitalia are not destiny, and that gender identity isn’t ALWAYS predicated on them?
(yes, Public Kerry means Public Socio-Political Rants.)
