Extremely biased and misrepresenting article
editThis article clearly has a biased agenda, but it appears impossible to edit it to have a more neutral representation. 217.74.147.194 (talk) 17:20, 16 April 2024 (UTC)
- @217.74.147.194 agreed. See the first paragraph:
Transmedicalism is the idea that being transgender is primarily a medical issue related to the incongruence between an individual's assigned sex at birth and their gender identity, characterized by gender dysphoria.
- This idea isn't Transmedicalism, but rather the most common definition of being trans. Transmedicalism, de-facto, is the belief that some people "aren't trans enough" and that one needs to "qualify" to be trans by fitting into specific stereotypes (e.g. transfems not being butch). I don't believe the de-juro definition of Transmedicalism, i.e. how they advertise themselves, is neutral and fitting to Wikipedia. RatherQueerDebator (talk) 07:47, 23 June 2024 (UTC)
- As for sources:
- What is Transmedicalism and why is it bad on Reddit (social media, yes; this is for my de-facto argument)
- Transmedicalism on Gender Wiki (non-neutral, yet has references)
- I'll provide more if needed; I just find it to be more productive to wait for a response before dedicating effort possibly in vain.

Brianna Wu
editCan we mention Brianna Wu and her recent transmedicalist tirades here (which usually comes coupled with fatphobia / ableism / classism)? There's a lot about her disgusting behavior (including buddying up with neo-nazi's / the Far Right) that should probably also be added to her article, which currently reads like a puff piece enabling / encouraging / whitewashing a terrible individual, but the article and any discussion surrounding it is currently protected at the moment (which does give the impression to average users that Wikipedia is protecting her reputation).

- Has this received any coverage by Reliable Sources? If so, then probably, yes, but only to the extent supported by the sources. If not, then no. Also, please take care that you don't fall into canvassing or venue shopping by bringing it here in such an aggressively non-neutral manner. DanielRigal (talk) 19:12, 6 September 2024 (UTC)
