RationalWiki's 2019 Fundraiser

There is no RationalWiki without you. We are a small non-profit with no staff – we are hundreds of volunteers who document pseudoscience and crankery around the world every day. We will never allow ads because we must remain independent. We cannot rely on big donors with corresponding big agendas. We are not the largest website around, but we believe we play an important role in defending truth and objectivity.

If everyone seeing this today donates $5, we will meet our goal for 2019.

Fighting pseudoscience isn't free.
We are 100% user-supported! Help and donate $5, $20 or whatever you can today with PayPal Logo.png!

Donations so far: $2900Goal: $6000

Pretty sure you know this person more than I would

Ah, I didn't realize you were talking about the body. Thought you meant something more subjective about socialization.

Nah, purely body. I assume that biological girls who understand and/or present themselves as boys, probably have a deep fear of rape, since it seems to be a "common" punishment that our oh so healthy society does when it finds that someone who is self-presenting as a boy, has a vagina.

I'm not one to quibble, but "biological girl" isn't the preferred term for most trans men, at least for most of the ones I've read of and those I know personally.

Okay, stupid question time. When referencing any pre-transition time, assuming you're open about it, which gender do you use? Do you retcon your entire gender or not, or is it just up to an individual?

Up to the individual. Which describes most of this topic, actually.

I figured as much.
