Singal isn't a bigot. It's not the service to trans people that many people seem to think it is to call anyone who documents unflattering dimensions of trans politics a bigot. Colin Wright, mentioned in the article, could more reasonably be called a bigot, though having his Paypal account terminated on that basis wouldn't be just.

But this really shouldn't be about Singal or Wright. I, a trans woman, had a fine evening out with the actual author of the piece, Yassine Meskhout, back in April along with a few other folks, and I'm quite sure he isn't bigoted against trans people.

I think I'll stick with my original opinion based on my own experience and reading. You don't get to decide for me any more than I get to decide for you.

Mhm. Let the dark lord decide for all of us I say. After all it is only a matter of proper verbiage how to most effectively ostracize someone you've personally deemed unlikeable eh?
