Did you see the Gender A Wider Lens interview with Sascha Bailey? He told his story about how he was on the verge of transitioning - he would have already but there was a long wait for his appointment with the NHS gender clinic. Anyway he got a girlfriend and one day he was explaining his trans identity to her. She was trying to understand, so she repeated what he’d said back to him to check - at this point, Sascha burst out laughing because he realised how ridiculous it sounded when he heard someone else say it. And just like that the spell was broken.

My conclusion is that if you’re not able to laugh at a subject, then you’ve lost perspective.

TERFs have the best sense of humor. We have to. If you haven't, google "transphobic toddlers."
