Brilliant first choice for interviewee and thank you Alex for all you do. I visit that Reddit group (but don’t post because as you say it is for detrans people to have their space) but read so many heartbreaking stories and really want to give everyone there a big hug. The support within that community is very special and you make it possible.

I don't want to erase trans people Gremlin, that is hyperbole and you know it.

This is how fear grips people who are locked in beliefs such as this. There is a consistent irrational and untested fear that your very existence is at threat. It's simply not true.

I'm advocating for better health care for everyone, not less, better.

It includes extending that care to ensure it's right for the people going through it, not to rush them through. It means other services may need more funding too, as well as this.

It also means a full scale review, unhindered into the effectiveness of surgery.

People will use my words in whatever way they see fit, I can't stop that and I won't stop speaking because of it. Silence is not helping, we need dialogue.

By sanity you must surely mean transphobia.
