“of the 1969 Stonewall uprising — which Pride was created to commemorate— was Marsha P Johnson, who would today most probably be identified as a trans woman.”
Quote from the article; is it appropriate to label someone as such when they never chose that themselves? Wikipedia seems to say Marsha was adamant about being a transvestite, not transsexual.
What human rights were being debated?
I love how she assumes someone’s gender in the second paragraph.
That is such a terrible headline. We debate human rights all the time.
Id question that self Id is a right. Just a act and be overturned easily.
The times first mistake was giving this awful windbag a platform. She delights in lecturing others and is painfully intolerant of any dissent to her worldview.
Debating human rights is how we decide what are human rights, humanity didn’t spontaneously decide that there was no more kings and individuals had freedom but that right of freedom could be tempered by certain types of common good.
