'Misgendering' Chris Chan

'Misgendering' Chris Chan



Chris Chan is a niche internet personality with one hell of a muddled, grotty backstory. He is clearly without self awareness, has been relentlessly trolled, duped by supposed love interests and accused of sexual harassment. Rose of Dawn does a good rundown here in her Pillars of the Community series and this on Glinner's substack is a great summing up.



After being accused of raping his elderly, dementia-suffering mother, with claims there is video evidence and an admission, some drop the pretence and refer to Chris as 'he'.

How many stories of this kind of intra-familial sexual abuse do you hear of which involve a woman as the abuser?

Here's the response. It doesn't matter what someone has done - pronouns must be respected. Calling for someone's execution is fine, 'misgendering' is an unforgivable crime against all trans people everywhere.

Apparently, correctly sexing a rapist (Chris Chan has not been found guilty, but this is the rhetoric which springs up every time a trans sex offender is in the news) is as bad as using racial slurs.

The minimising, diversion of attention from the absolutely horrifying claims, as well as the determined effort to make any single 'trans' person part of trans people as a whole, is cultish, bizarre and depraved. I could have collected many times the number I did, and the news broke just over 3 hours ago.

I can only hope his poor mother is now safe and can recover. Why does the 'community' stand so vehemently in defence of those accused of these most despicable crimes?

Chris Chan has form for defending incest, as you can see here;


And was recorded as a woman in judicial files

And so, onto the real crime here - 'misgendering'











































'Actually fucking illegal' doesn't really cover it, for me...

And after checking a few hours later, I see this is still the predominant issue...










Some sense from a trans person!

InSaNE BIGotRY!

Dear Ally - "But it's just about respect"

~ Introduction ~

This began in response to a chat with co-blogger Anna, who remembered a conversation with her brother on trans rights. He died a few years ago, and she now wonders would he, out and proud gay man who suffered serious and sustained homophobic abuse as a teen, consider her a TERF? She is horribly unsure. 

She thinks he'd understand her, thinks he'd agree, but the way a particular school of thought has evolved, leaving many finding it inconceivable what she, we, think of as basic facets of reality, there's room for doubt.

Then I saw a woman expressing her exasperation and upset with her husband, who dismisses her concerns over gender neutral changing rooms at work. He had asked her to post less on 'the gender stuff'. It was deeply condescending to his wife who has complex, multifaceted concerns and reasons to come to the opinion she has.

Later, someone I know on Facebook 'corrected' me on a public post regarding Eddie Izzard. Underneath my comment, where I'd referred to Izzard as he, my friend simply wrote "*she*".

I explained that no, I wasn't doing this, I don’t want to play this game. And, I was told, it's all about respect.

That's normally the line - it's pretty simple, just use the pronouns. Make life easier for this marginalised group by not being a bigot. Just do it, no excuses, it isn't hard, and trans people go through so much more. Stop making your pedantic, miserly point at the expense of someone else's dignity. (I'm near certain I'll have said this to people myself in the past.)

Well, no, he didn't actually say the rest - he's a nice guy. I assume his position is based on a fundamental consideration for others - which I also have, and which is incredibly important to uphold. Things like knowing that trans people are often emotionally vulnerable makes it feel like it's only a little expression of courtesy that costs nothing; and, crucially, being a socially conscious, left wing geezer who's probably stood up for many marginalised groups in the past, reads The Canary, Novara, follows Owen Jones etc, and thinks whatever he has heard about the debate over trans rights might not be comprehensive but it's probably pretty balanced.

But, knowing he is a nice guy, I wonder if he would be shocked if he saw it for what it is.
