I really hope there's a way to use frequencies and Bayes nets to disprove dysphoria→AGP causal direction, particularly because then I'll be able to call the post "Algebraic Typology"

+but now I'm watching TV
+and I have a new actress crush
+Lauren Ash
+maybe it's just the character she's playing, but she seems slightly facially masculinized?
+but so curvy
+so my type
+America Ferrera is also in this show
+I remember her from Ugly Betty, which I would watch at the University in 2007
+before the personality-altering nervous breadown that led me to quit
+there was a trans woman character on that show, but she was played by Rebecca Romijn
+there was a poignant line (you know it's poignant when you can remember a line from a TV show you saw ten years ago) where she says to her brother, "Look into my eyes, Danny; it's the only thing they couldn't change"
+and how do I put this
+my blog would sound a lot less transphobic if we had the technology to make AGPs look like Rebecca Romijn

+it would sound more transphobic, no? you'd have transitioned, so you wouldn't be concerned with some of the signalling you do now (e.g. woman as a gender rather than transwoman as one) and may indeed be actively signalling that you haven't signed the contract, Yardley-style; the idea it'd be less transphobic assumes becoming Romijn would put you more in line with trans topics as well
+(unless I'm misinterpreting something, which is a reasonable assumption)
+Carrie Zelda-Michelle Davis - Today at 11:19 PM
+you're right; I wasn't taking the hypothetical seriously enough

+(Actual line from someone's script: "Look into my eyes, Danny, 'cause that's about the only thing they couldn't change.")
