Excerpts from a good review of the state of the news media, “Gender and the Media:
“The year 2022 saw some small breaks in the lock step uniformity with which the liberal and moderate conservative media in North America has covered gender medicine. There have been investigative reports and commentaries in the New York Times, the Washington Post and Reuters which discuss detransition and raise concerns about how teens as being given hormones and surgeries without adequate psychological assessment. The transgender activist community is furious and it is encouraging to see that their outrage is, so far, having little effect.” . . .
The end game?
Once the media starts to understand the distinction between accepting same sex attraction (the LGB) and denying the material reality of sex (the TQ), the final step is a short one. That is to acknowledge that concern about gender medicine is not simply a right wing talking point and that there is concern at all points on the political spectrum.
