“The reason I transitioned was rather less to do with some ethereal gendered soul, and more to do with my sexuality, my self-image, and how I wanted to be perceived by others.” - Debbie Hayton queermajority.com/essays-all/if-…

“Sexuality is usually understood to be attraction to one sex or the other, or both in the case of bisexuality. But sexual attraction is also rooted in perception.” - Debbie Hayton queermajority.com/essays-all/if-…

“People don’t directly sense chromosomes or gametes, nor can they detect anyone else’s internal sense of self.” - Debbie Hayton queermajority.com/essays-all/if-…

“Whatever the reason that drives an individual to transition, it doesn’t change their sex. But we don’t need to change sex to change the way that we are perceived by other people. Gender transition is therefore a meaningful process.” - Debbie Hayton queermajority.com/essays-all/if-…

By me for The Spectator: "It might have worked had someone quipped, ‘He’s not the Messiah, he’s a very naughty boy!’ Alas they didn’t" spectator.co.uk/article/itvs-t…

ITV’s Transaction is painfully unfunny. The script is rather stronger on trans privilege that trans responsibility. ✍️ Debbie Hayton spectator.co.uk/article/itvs-t…

“The current trans debate is nasty and sometimes brutal. That’s not surprising when both sides fear their opponents might succeed in redefining woman and man, and consequently the way we relate to each other.” - Debbie Hayton queermajority.com/essays-all/if-…

“In the present dispute, both sides make unfalsifiable claims about the definition of the words ‘woman’ and ‘man’, and merely assert what they think those words ought to mean.” - Debbie Hayton queermajority.com/essays-all/if-…

“Evolution has moulded our minds as well as our bodies. Those who ignore evolved human psychology in arguments around trans issues might be guilty of a second form of biology denialism.” - Debbie Hayton queermajority.com/essays-all/if-…

I asked Google NotebookLM to take a look at my piece for Queer Majority, 'If biological sex matters, so must our perception of sex'. The software generated a 12-minute podcast. It's rather good! Original piece> queermajority.com/essays-all/if-… youtube.com/watch?v=JVLiOR…

Why is the YHA allowing males to stay in women’s dorms? ✍️ Debbie Hayton spectator.co.uk/article/why-is…

By me for The Spectator: "The YHA trustees [...] should review their arrangements for trans guests as a matter of urgency. They can start by paying rather more attention to the highest court in the land than to the likes of Mermaids & Gendered Intelligence." spectator.co.uk/article/why-is…
