I’ve been glad to see my library in BC has a good variety of so-called controversial books including Shrier’s but I’m not surprised they’re facing pressure to tag them. On the one hand it’s just another obvious hollowing out of the word transphobia when it can literally mean information you don’t like, but it will likely lead to people feeling compelled to curtail their reading of this area due to the feeling that they’re doing something wrong. I’ll be watching for that now. Thank you.
