Destiny talks with a trans person: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bW9sC56x8IU
It's interesting because the trans person is less pro trans than destiny in this discussion, and also because she talks about most trans women not passing while she totally passes. Best discussion on trans stuff I've seen, not that this bar is very high.
It's not an encouraging sign if this discussion passes as "best discussion on trans stuff". I'm also confused about the idea that Destiny is more more trans in this. He's the one who talks about "fake trans people", disparages "non-binary women" and says we shouldn't respect pronouns.
taftaj in this discussion just strikes me as someone who projects her own issues onto everyone. Multiple times she brings up studies that are done and then dismisses them because they do not fit with her personal experience. Well, in fairness, this is coupled with the argument that there's not enough data and stuff like puberty blockers is too new to know the long-term effects.
So like, if you want to keep the company of anti-vaxxers and anti-GMO people, I guess this makes for a good argument? Puberty blockers have existed for 40 years.
There is other annoying shit, like in the beginning the two pretty much work on the assumption that being trans is the same as experiencing gender dyphoria, which seems dangerously close to labeling transness as a mental illness. At one particular funny moment Destiny wonders whether taftaj experiences gender dysphoria or the dysmorphia of a cis woman, as if these were two different things.
Overall I feel like Destiny's argument lacks any consistency. The first time he brings up pronouns all I could think was "okay, so if people should just guess pronouns, does that mean they should also just guess names? And if they choose the right name, then that's great because self-perception and external perception line up?" Later Destiny indeed brings up names and says that they're different to pronouns because... no reason given.
At least Destiny namedrops Contrapoints. For good takes on trans issues, this is the source I recommend.
