Thank you for this.

Yes: the “no debate” era is over, thank goodness.

Now we’re getting, apparently “we’ve always had this discussion [and everyone else has always agreed with us do what’s wrong with you?”] and “respectful debate means agreeing with everything we say”]

If you’re on Facebook, have a look at the “labour trans equality” page for examples.

I think you’re right. Continuing to demand clarity is the way to go. And it’s always interesting the effect doing that has. It seems to instantly enrage a lot of trans activists. Mind you I tried to read Judith Butler recently, and if that’s the bible then no wonder these people are confused 🙂
