I think Andrew Stewart's excellent and considered reply to Philip Ferguson's sharing of a transphobic POV needs to be celebrated. GLW also has extensively covered the debate in support of transgender & intersex rights. https://www.greenleft.org.au/topics/transgender-intersex-rights I think it's a no-brainer...as to the side you should be on. Sharing anti-trans politics (in the context of education debates in Australia) needs a lot more substance than what Andrew rightly calls 'straw men' arguments offered via Ferguson's link.. Pseudo-headings about 'Trans Ideology' don't cut it, Phil. For those interested in the topic, I recommend this site for an up close & personal POV about, what I'd call, reality -- rather than be ruled by phobic notions: http://www.howtobeagirlpodcast.com/ dave riley _________________________________________________________ Full posting guidelines at: http://www.marxmail.org/sub.htm Set your options at: https://lists.csbs.utah.edu/options/marxism/archive%40mail-archive.com
