jesse singal: (writes a bunch of articles in defense of a doctor who is widely known to be abusive and who literally did a study on the attractiveness of shirtless 6 year olds)
jesse singal: (uses a group of conversion therapy advocates as his sources for several high-profile pieces on trans issues, effectively spotlighting a bunch of abusive parents' attempts to force their kids to be cis over anything those kids want)
jesse singal: (spends several years going to bat for both this group of conversion therapy advocates and various doctors who are well known for their child abuse and ruining of lives)
jesse singal: (displays a pattern of finding trans women who are newly out to focus on and use as a shield against claims that he is a transphobe or a liar, regularly casting one of them off to get a new one as they figure out he's not actually going to get less transphobic)
jesse singal: it is totally out of line to call me creepy
like i 100% believe everyone who has come forward with uncomfortable and worse than uncomfortable interactions with him, of course! his entire personal philosophy is dependant on pretending that interpersonal power balances don't and can't exist
but aside from his terf book reports and extremely weird series of articles on "look at these weird queers" like they're fucking zoo animals, this shit started with him crying about SJWs shutting down Zucker's clinic
he literally started going down this path in order to defend Zucker and Blanchard, who both abused their patients and both have published some incredibly creepy shit *as their scientific work*, including the oft-cited study "objectify and rate gender non conforming children"
AND THEN HE SWITCHES TO THE CONVERSION THERAPY PARENT GROUP, the unscientific and 100% made up but "science-sounding" bullshit of "rapid onset gender dysphoria"
dedicating your "journalistic" career to going to bat for various groups of child abusers pretty much makes you a creep ON ITS OWN
