The American Psychological Association, representing 157,000 members, has issued a resolution calling for an end to trans care bans and misinformation around care.
And this is why the promotion of pseudoscience or magical thinking is incredibly dangerous. Astrology (for example) may seem like harmless fun, but the lack of critical thinking involved in believing it seeps into other aspects of your beliefs and worldview.
Now we have a population of people full-on addicted to technology created by the same scientists who have been ringing alarm bells for decades. They’ll unironically tell you that they believe the Earth is flat using a device directly connected to a satellite that only works because the scientists who designed it took the (very real) shape of the planet into account.
As a trans woman, the look on someone’s face when I said there were at least 9 variations on the 23rd pair is always priceless. It doesn’t matter if having one of those variations is irrelevant to being trans, it shuts down their sixth grade understanding of biology and sex determination.
Yes I had the discussion with someone who I thought was better than this today.

Torrenting is literally holy work.
I wouldn’t download a fish. My router would stink like fish for days.

Hyperlinks? Sounds like yer computin’ device has some of that ay-dee-eych-dee, better git it some of that ridalin and focalin

We’re fucked.
They are also the ones who will point to their sixth grade biology class as proof that there are two genders.

And their imaginary friends are unlikely to challenge their biases or present new evidence.
