[quote]American doctors and scientists are not allowed to study this
Nothing in the linked Guardian article says anything about American doctors and scientists not being allowed to study trans people/issues. The first woman the article discusses had a lecture cancelled after a Twitter freakout and explicitly makes the point that she feels this is a UK issue and not a North American issue (she specifically references giving the same speech, with no issues, in Newfoundland). The vice-chancellor of the university where this happened has:
[quote]...promised a review into what happened in December, and says the university expects its community not to interfere with “the rights of others to express views with which they might disagree profoundly”.
So the lecture being threatened was not just taken lying down and was in fact controversial enough to make national news.
Also from the article:
[quote]Kathleen Stock, professor of philosophy at Sussex University and a gender-critical feminist, claims that last month Oxford University Press abandoned a book on female philosophers because her inclusion was deemed too controversial.
I don't know anything more about this and so won't comment but it's not "American doctors and scientists aren't allowed to study this"
The article covers the issue of ongoing tension between "gender critical" and "trans and trans-allied" groups on campuses in the UK, detailing heavy security needed at some lectures amongst other details.
Again, NOTHING in the Guardian article supports your point about "American doctors and scientists" not being "allowed" to study this. It doesn't even remotely support UK doctors or scientists not being allowed to study it! It reports on a current controversy in the UK, one which will almost certainly and within the next few years be settled by allowing gender critical academics and thinkers to continue to give lectures at universities etc.
As the OP said, you're either a troll or you're serious and I'm beginning to suspect you're serious. Which is the least favourable outcome for you.
Not as many people are out to get you as you think. Breathe. Once more: social media isn't real life. You are not in danger.
I'm off to bed. Still freaked out by you, OP, and your life's eerie similarities to my own. I think I may have come across you on DL before, because there is definitely someone here who always reminds me of me. Good night, I know I don't have to say "ignore these trolls" so instead I'll just say your kid is lucky to have you as a parent.
