Preston Sprinkle’s Framing of Gender and Complexity

Preston will freely say that he thinks that your gender is tied to your biologically created body. And we would go, well, I agree with that. But what he does to subtly move the line is he goes, listen to these guys, listen to how hard this is, their experience that's so difficult.
