The GenderTrender article has more details (https://gendertrender.wordpress.com/2017/05/02/philosophys-end-the-defamation-of-rebecca-tuvel/ https://gendertrender.wordpress.com/2017/05/02/philosophys-e...). tl; dr: her article analyzes the similarities of the cases of Caitlyn Jenner (transgender) and Rachel Dolezal (transracial, https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rachel_Dolezal https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rachel_Dolezal).
I'll just paste the following part:
Heterosexual white female Nora Berenstain of the University of Texas accused Tuvel of being a violent perpetrator:
“Tuvel enacts violence and perpetuates harm in numerous ways throughout her essay. She deadnames a trans woman [Bruce Jenner]. She uses the term “transgenderism.” She talks about “biological sex” and uses phrases like “male genitalia.” She focuses enormously on surgery, which promotes the objectification of trans bodies. She refers to “a male-to- female (mtf) trans individual who could return to male privilege,” promoting the harmful transmisogynistic ideology that trans women have (at some point had) male privilege.”
Words fail me.

- senectus1 9y agowait... transRACIAL?!? how is that a thing?
- devrandomguy 9y agoThis was common back when I was in high school. A bunch of us kids convinced ourselves that we were straight outta Compton. It was so wack, but we had lots fun of breakdancing and threatening to bust a cap in each other. This was before Columbine, and in Canada. The accent was hard for us to get right. So, now it's called transracial, and we're no longer allowed to dis it? Sure, ok, whatever.
