Imagine if we just accepted people as they are...

I don’t understand. Do you mean the article or my reply?

The article is saying that

My reply is frankly because I think that a lot of harm has come from people assuming context from inflammatory headlines. How much bullshit narrative about transgender people is believed because dipshits go on reddit, read the byline “trans people are x” and then skip the entire article of nuance in favor of their cognitive bias?

Oh no, I was referring to the article and the subject matter in general. Just kind of exasperated by all of this shit I guess and was just saying it to say it. I wasn't taking issue with what you said or anything. I can see now how that was unclear.

Just in general, I wish we could just accept people as they are. Intersex people are intersex. Aside from bullshit societal pressures (or medical necessity), there's no reason for people to feel the need to "correct" anything.
