This is in sharp contrast with something that embraces and uplifts the feminized.

How did the tech bro crowd, growing up on stories of sci-fi, transhumanism, virtual reality and limitless ability to modify one's body, "biohacking," etc. end up becoming so viscerally anti-transgender? Truly boggles my mind.

It’s easier to believe we’d go to any lengths to cheat at sports or prey on restrooms than that we could feel so strongly about who we are.
