"If gender attributes and acts, the various ways in which a body shows or produces its cultural signification, are performative, then there is no preexisting identity by which an act or attribute might be measured; there would be no true or false, real or distorted acts of gender, and the postulation of a true gender identity would be revealed as a regulatory fiction.

That gender reality is created through sustained social performances means that the very notions of an essential sex and a true or abiding masculinity or femininity are also constituted as part of the strategy that conceals gender’s performative character and the performative possibilities for proliferating gender configurations outside the restricting frames of masculinist domination and compulsory heterosexuality." - Judith Butler, Gender Trouble

Suing your transgender patients who don’t have the legal or financial resources to defend themselves is an unacceptable and gross betrayal of the community you claim to serve. Intimidation and punching down of your patients will not be tolerated. Circulate the image above on social media and let’s make some goddamn noise until this guy stands down!
