Good day all, in response to the increase in transphobia we've experience since the For Women Scotland v Scotland Supreme Court decision, seemingly a mix of genuine malice and people tripping up with a topic they're unfamiliar with, I've taken the initiative to write some guidelines on how to engage in the topic and clearing up some common misconceptions.

I'm not all that happy with them, I want something more comprehensive but my time has been pretty taxed lately and I don't want my perfectionism to stand in the way of having these out. If there's any issues, glaring omissions or whatnot, then please let me know or make a pull request here.

Are detrans discussions prohibited?

I asked before but didn't get a response.

I don't even know what 'detrans discussions' means. As long as you don't just use the fact some people transition as a cudgel against the idea of medical transition, then I don't see why not.

I mean discussions similar to those in Reddit's /r/detrans, /r/actual_detrans, /r/ask_detransition, etc. or in fact any discussions around detransitioning. In my experience, such communities and discussions very much do not toe the trans party line.

/r/detrans

I checked it out and it seems like an absolute cesspool, so no 'discussions' like the what happens there aren't allowed.

In my experience, such communities and discussions very much do not toe the trans party line.

Here is a quote from the top post in that community today:

How long will we pretend they aren’t violent braindead porn-addicted narcissists who hate us because our existence challenges their narrative and provides a living experience for those ones who aren’t completely sure about transmuting themselves into fake males/females so that they can address what’s wrong with them and why they do feel so much distress about their bodies and biological sex?

Is it really any wonder why people not drowning in this trans-hating sludge would find this objectionable?
