One of the things that really irks me about this whole Trans-shebang is how the supposed skeptic "community" has either completely fallen for an irrational magical belief, or fallen in line behind one for political reasons.
So any time I see anyone taking one or more of them down a peg over the matter, I'll happily devour the content.
Here's one example. Rebecca Watson, the self-proclaimed "skepchick", being brought to task over the matter. Haven't yet watched beyond the start, but I intend to finish the video while sipping my evening herbal tea.
