This doesn’t sit right with me. Les feinberg was very much not someone who really identified with the gender binary construction. Sie used sie/hir pronouns for instance and was AFAB. Idk, this just feels wrong here actually?
For me, pronouns are always placed within context. I am female-bodied, I am a butch lesbian, a transgender lesbian—referring to me as “she/her” is appropriate, particularly in a non-trans setting in which referring to me as “he” would appear to resolve the social contradiction between my birth sex and gender expression and render my transgender expression invisible. I like the gender neutral pronoun “ze/hir” because it makes it impossible to hold on to gender/sex/sexuality assumptions about a person you’re about to meet or you’ve just met. And in an all trans setting, referring to me as “he/him” honors my gender expression in the same way that referring to my sister drag queens as “she/her” does.

yeah i’m kind of wrong and just hate the fbi i guess
A good instinct to be sure.
I think it’s very possible that Feinberg went through several phases. Eggs don’t crack then suddenly everything is figured out.
it is possible that my judgement is clouded by a blinding hatred of the FBI
