@LALegault Hmm. The trans community, or medical gatekeepers who have historically decided who gets to medically transition and who doesn’t?
Also societal pressure — as a cis woman, I face no physical risk if I leave the house without makeup.
I found Julia Serano’s book The Whipping Girl really helpful and informative, both with respect to the history and in thinking about trans activism as a feminist movement.
