@jk_rowling @legaltweetz This. I hold that if/when autogynophilia enters the chattering class lexicon, the madness really will disintegrate.

@legaltweetz It's one of the very few debates where there's hardly any middle ground, other than general agreement that nobody should be persecuted for wanting to dress or look a certain way (within obvious limits. Thinking of that Canadian teacher with the enormous fake breasts. I am not

'He has a point, but he's too blunt.'

From the start, a key tactic of the gender identitarians has been linguistic prescription, and it's proved shockingly successful. Trans activists' shibboleths and euphemisms have been allowed to penetrate the upper echelons of our culture

The statement is part of a broader conversation about gender identity and the concept of autogynephilia, which is a controversial topic in public discourse. The tone is metaphorical, using the 'elephant in the room' analogy to suggest that there is an obvious issue being ignored. The intent seems to be to highlight perceived denial or avoidance of discussing autogynephilia openly. The content implies criticism of those who dismiss or misinterpret the issue.

  1. Principle 1:
    I will strive to do no harm with my words and actions.
    The statement uses metaphorical language that could be interpreted as dismissive or mocking, potentially causing harm to those it targets, thus not fully adhering to the principle of doing no harm.聽[-1]
  2. Principle 2:
    I will respect the privacy and dignity of others and will not engage in cyberbullying, harassment, or hate speech.
    The statement does not engage in direct harassment or hate speech, but the metaphorical language could be seen as disrespectful to those it discusses, potentially violating the principle of respecting dignity.聽[-1]
  3. Principle 3:
    I will use my words and actions to promote understanding, empathy, and compassion.
    The statement does not promote understanding, empathy, or compassion, as it uses a metaphor that could alienate or offend rather than foster dialogue.聽[-1]
  4. Principle 4:
    I will engage in constructive criticism and dialogue with those in disagreement and will not engage in personal attacks or ad hominem arguments.
    The statement does not engage in constructive criticism or dialogue, as it uses metaphorical language that could be seen as dismissive rather than engaging in a reasoned debate.聽[-1]
  5. Principle 7:
    I will uphold the principles of free speech and use my platform responsibly and with integrity.
    The statement engages in public discourse on a controversial topic, but the use of metaphorical language may not fully uphold the responsibility and integrity expected in such discussions.聽[-1]
