I've been looking at some posts from people who claim that asexuality is not a spectrum, or that there is a spectrum and asexuality is the "absolute zero" right at the far end of it, and I'd like to propose a phrase to counter that argument:

There are infinitely more ways to fall outside of the norm than inside it.

we all need to be considering whether we're needlessly preventing multigender, non binary, genderqueer, and other gender variant people from entering spaces we belong in. we need to start putting multigender and gender non conforming queer people at the forefront of our concerns with every other major issue. there's way too much hostility toward multigender people right now despite the love of terms like boygirl and girlboy. start helping advocate for multigender peoples' rights to occupy the spaces they rightfully belong in, no matter what their 2 or more genders are.

something that should be taken with a grain of salt are the statistics talking about the high rates of mental illness + neurodivergence among trans people (ocd, bpd, adhd, autism, etc)

I see both sides of the political spectrum taking these studies at face value - conservatives say we're broken, and trans people try to come up with reasons why for example autism + gender dysphoria makes sense and why one of them feeds into another

at the end of the day you have to remember that we're the one category of people on this planet who are legally required to go see a psychiatrist in order to receive non-psychiatric medication and surgeries.

more trans people are in therapy by law than any other demographic of people, and as a result, this captures more comorbidities.

if I had to look at my own family & rates of mental illness?

mom, dad, 2 maternal aunts, maternal grandmother, paternal grandmother, sister, sibling, and me all have OCD.

7/9 of them are cishet, never been to therapy, never diagnosed. 2/9 are trans, required therapy for hormone treatment, and were diagnosed.

you don't have to do any math to just see that the resulting statistics end up intensely skewed.

and we can think back to how autism was virtually never diagnosed more than 50 years ago - ruling out any grandparents being included in statistics - and even my parents' generation (they're in their 60s now) wouldn't have been included either.

I don't think it's to anyone's benefit to accept these studies uncritically. a lot of these things are hereditary and far more prevalent in the overall population than people realize
