it's not a generational divide. there's plenty of young transmedicalists. it's a conservative position that posits that if we cut out all the "weird" trans people, we can gain the acceptance of the cissies because good "optics" or whatever (I've actually had this conversation in a phone call with a staunch transmedicalist that's very much a zoomer).
the reality is that queer assimilationists endanger all of us. their position forces them into alliance with far-right groups (see my earlier comments about TERFs and fascists).
this disagreement has nothing to do with a generational divide. I love elder trans people and learning about how they survived prior to the 2011 change to the laws that enabled informed consent. their experiences are vital. what I will not tolerate are people who deny the existence of my dearest NB friends, on a fool's errand to gain acceptance from a hostile cis society.
