Source Summary

As a follow-up to the previous post, from Yahoo News: ‘X’ now a gender option in Australian passports – Yahoo! News The comments (nearly all from US readers) are instructive. Here’s some of the more popular ones, those “upvoted”. And the world draws closer to the end of times. Why is it the world bends over backwards for these broken people? Let them adjust to the mainstream. A tiny percentage of confused nutters shouldn’t get to modify any aspects of society. Male or female, that’s it! Don’t confuse yourself with another! Oh this is just ridiculous!!!!!! What really surprises me though is that America with all it’s Gay lovers didn’t do this first. God that just makes me sick. A very small amount of people in the world are actually born with this problem then there’s way more people who just THINK they’re not the right gender. Well guess what,

Interpretive context

Why this article may matter

Community significance

“Freaks and Perverts” may matter to community readers because it preserves a first-person or testimonial account connected to culture, identity, and representation, while also engaging transgender identity and history. Such accounts can document how an issue was understood and experienced from within the period or community being discussed.

Historical significance

As a publication record from 2011 at Transadvocate.com, “Freaks and Perverts” provides dated evidence of how culture, identity, and representation was being argued in relation to transgender identity and history. Comparing it with earlier and later records can reveal changes in vocabulary, evidence, and emphasis.

Policy significance

The article’s strongest policy connection is administrative classification and identity documents and healthcare regulation. It links that institutional frame to culture, identity, and representation and transgender identity and history, making it potentially useful for tracing how an argument moves from description or history into law, regulation, administration, or public practice.
