Oh yes it is

I’m pleased to see that I’m not the only one who emphatically insists that trans ideology is indeed an ideology.

I was drawing a deep breath to say “Oh yes there is” but then I realized I didn’t need to. (I said it anyway though. Might as well.)

    This attempt to conflate beliefs with people really really gets my goat. I do an inward Charlie Brown AAUGH! every time I come across it.

    So I really appreciate these replies to the burning Stupid.

    Sex is biological reality, gender identity is a way of modelling people’s psychology developed specifically to account for the existence of people who feel some form of alienation from their sex, or affinity for being the opposite sex. When phrased in such plain language, it seems obvious to me this is best viewed as a mental illness, but this is anathema to the believers.

    The push to have gender identity replace sex as the characteristic we use to decide who men and women are – and hence, who has access to the spaces reserved for either – is obviously an ideology.

    Sigh. Sometimes, when I get things nicely concise like that, I almost wish I did twitter.
