“I am an avid listener and long time fan but I have grown frustrated with not addressing the harmful things people say. The detransition article has so many harmful claims in it and constantly uses the wrong terminology like “born into a gender” and to focus on the other transgender guest’s mental health and addiction problems was extremely problematic. Katie said multiple times there was constructive criticism about her piece and yet we never heard about it or why it was so harmful to center a story like that while transgender people fight for their right to live every day. Not to mention it wasn’t even discussed how her piece was such a medicalized point of view and so many trans people live in the world without seeking HRT or surgeries.”
