MODERATORS
 

My target audience are people "on the fence" of becoming transphobic, and people who cause harm to the trans community without knowing it by spreading misinformation (that they don't know is misinformation) and disrespecting trans people overall.

Right now, I just want a list of transphobic claims to debunk, and ideally sources to aid in debunking them.

While I won't be going through the list point-for-point in the video essay, I intend to slot them into relevant sections that I've already planned out.

Reliable experts to research for reference would also be very helpful. knight-nod

My goal is to be as non-hostile as possible--extending the courtesy of respect, in the hopes that some of them will reciprocate that respect.

I don't expect civility from the entire group, but every new ally counts. trans-heart

Fantastic!! Can I actually get a link to your music to listen to while writing? It's unlikely to end up a central theme, but I do intend to have the fact that I used to be a genetics and genomics major back when I could afford college be a sort of "beat drop" at the relevant moment.

Before I deleted my Xitter account back in 2023, I ended up being blocked by a lot of transphobes after dropping my college transcript (doxxable info censored, of course) in response to being told that I "don't understand basic biology."

I'm hoping to get in contact with my professor from back when I was in college, Michael Turelli, to invite him to interview for the video, but he's likely busy.

After listening to a few different songs, I don't think they'd fit the tone of the video essay, BUT they'd work very well for a fiction series I've been hyperfixated on that I've been wanting to animate. For example, "Hastur" would work really well for a certain really tragic scene from book 1 I have in mind (I won't specify because it's a spoiler if you ever intend to read the series yourself).

OOH!! I just found "Crawling Chaos," that'd work perfectly for the battle early in book 1 against a hive mind leech monster summoned by a blood cult.
