My only “agenda” is intellectual honesty and scientific reproducibility.
Drawing from the experiences on trans test subjects to prove a hypothesis about sexism between CIS males and females is the very definition of a biased study.
I’m happy to discuss OP’s hypothesis for a study on sexism against trans people in a study using trans test subjects… but that’s not what this is, is it?
Do better.
My opinion is that including trans people in this sort of study actually reduces the bias, because they're the only people who will have experienced the social impacts of presenting both male and female at different times. All cis-gendered people will be inherently biased towards their own limited experience.
That’s a good point. Certain types of studies would be improved by this type of diversity.
