Well congrats on getting trans people to consent to interviews but my position remains unchanged. I think this is the main reason trans people don't want to engage in good faith debate. Both guests are delusional. Their ideas cannot become policy. They are too self absorbed to even imagine how and why men in women's bathrooms and safe spaces elevates risk. They don't see the danger of transing confused kids. Meghan did not push back. She didn't probe the issue of men in women's prisons or shelters, or transing kids which are the main points Rowling makes. Trans people are terrified that biology affects behavior. You can't change your genetics/nature. 300 million years of sexual dimorphism cannot be cosmetically airbrushed or surgically incised away. XY still have a reproductive imperitive. Most of them don't get sex reassignment surgery because sexual deviance is central to their behavior. A huge % of trans XY are sexually attracted to women. That doesn't make them lesbians. It makes them men capable of impregnating women. Keep them out of women's safe spaces.

The first guest was cancelled by TRAs for running afoul of pronoun orthodoxy yet he keeps pushing all of their idiotic agendas. We don't have to accept a society with no gender boundaries. Trans people can pretend all they want but the lines must remain drawn to protect biological women and minors. Forcing people/society to accept or humor your fetish/psychosis is not a human right.

Transgenderism is a social contagion perfectly compatible with the hyperfragility Haidt documents. Humans that are too frail to accept reality are collectively demanding that reality change to accomodate them. Academia, businesses and government become their surrogate helicopter parents swooping in to resolve the confilct for them. It's untenable.
