Well, I really don&#x27;t feel like working at the moment so I&#x27;ll bite!<p>The article, of course, doesn&#x27;t just give an opinion. It tells an historical story---partly from her own experience as a social justice activist---and makes an argument that a wrong turn was taken. You could well disagree with her conclusion, some premises, or think she left out key facts, but I think her grounds are a bit less flimsy than whatever biases she happened to inherit.<p>FWIW, I didn&#x27;t know who this person was, but I googled out of curiosity and she appears to identify as trans herself? (but, sure, this doesn&#x27;t matter inside this dialectic since she could still have &quot;cis privilege&quot;).<p>One of her recent criticisms seemed to be parents subjecting their children to sex reassignment surgery before they are old enough to give informed consent. And that the explanation for this---obviously, right?---involves the prominence of gender and sexuality in our cultural zeitgeist and as technologies for self-identification. She also points out that sex change is now being misleadingly presented as a solution to deeper problems that would really remain unaddressed.<p>A Twitter-inflaming interview had some interesting remarks on a connection between sexuality and cultural decadence---which she has apparently written a book on the history of---but she seems to be actually well read and was working with a much more complex structure than bloggers picked up on (&quot;decadence&quot; is used as a technical term, the link isn&#x27;t causal, a richer concept of self-identity is assumed, the objectification of bodies is placed in a more complex network, etc).<p>But again, this is just my impression from procrastinating for a bit!
