New publication with my best title yet! Using CRISPR gene editing as an anchor, I offer reflections on high-tech conversion practices, high-tech medical transition, and the ethics of hype.

🚨 Important new article on gender self-determination as a medical right in CMAJ! I argue that people have a right to gender-affirming care and that many common barriers aren’t justified by evidence. Trans health needs to centre human rights more! 🏳️⚧️

Meanwhile in Canada. I wonder if what's going on in the US will shake some sense into Canadians.

Fun fact, the French term for ‘settler’ (“colon”) is a derogatory term.

Where do you all go to disseminate your research? I feel like Twitter used to be good but now I’m lucky if my posts reach 5% of my followers.

Feels especially important, too, in the midst of bad faith attacks on the “quality of evidence” of trans health. If gender self-determination is a medical right, the conversation is very different.

Like ma’am you look like a Texas pastor’s beauty pageant daughter and you grew up and live in a small town. How on Earth do you not know what “amen” means?!

It is hilariously bad. She literally googled “how to act like a Christian” and then got to reading a page about what the word “amen” means.

Wrote this because I was tired of the premise that trans people must prove the ‘mental health benefits’ of transition before being allowed to live out their gender. We should be allowed to freely determine how we live out our gender. Any barrier MUST be justified by evidence.

Florence Ashley is again knocking it out of the park here. When I discussed homo technicus policy goals in law school, people mostly just nodded and smiled. Ashley is right to point out the normative and oppressive concerns that should be considered in any tech blurred human identity policy.

We need to see the Supreme Court’s disastrous rulings in the context of the Right’s larger project to uphold traditional hierarchies of race, wealth/class, gender, and religion - all part of the attempt to halt the drive towards egalitarian, multiracial, pluralistic democracy.

Y'all are being so overly concerned. Remember when SCOTUS ruled on Citizens United, and everyone was worried that it would critically harm democracy? Or when people said that overturning Roe would lead to a huge health crisis for women? *finger to ear* I am being told to shut the fuck up now
