Tufts University’s Latest Course is About ‘Transcestors’
Stop the insanity. Please.
I…I honestly have no words about Tuft University’s new course titled “Transcestors: Trans History, Narrative & Influence” through its Experimental College.
From Campus Reform:
According to the description, the course will prompt students with questions such as “How have transgender people been systematically misused, misunderstood, co-opted, and erased throughout history?.”
The description continues to provide the premise of the course which will include the oppression of transgender-identifying people and so-called trans erasure.
“In this course, we’ll look at several notable examples of trans existence throughout time and place, their relative oppressions, and how these situations have altered cis perceptions of trans people in the modern day,” it says.
“We’ll additionally look at how these erasures of history have influenced the current mass markets of entertainment (including literature, movies, sitcoms, and stand-up comedy), the deliberate attacks on U.S. trans rights over the past decade (such as book bans, participation in sports, and access to trans-related healthcare), and the impact of of these attacks on cis people alongside trans people,” it continues.
Milo Todd is the listed professor for the class. He is the “co-editor-in-chief at Foglifter Journal, runs The Queer Writer newsletter, and teaches creative writing primarily to queer and trans adults.”

If they were erased, how can they be study subjects?
Simple. You invent them.
Democrats are good at inventing things. Recently they invented a way to control the country through a puppet called the three P’s:
A puppet that you can afford
A puppet that can’t increase
A puppet fits your budget
You may laugh but in the late 70s the local company librarian declined to order “Our Black Foremothers” and missed out badly on a trend.
The WSJ nailed it in their most recent college rankings where Tufts came in at #287. Tufts long ago stopped being a serious academic institution and is now just a hotbed for two things – extreme DEI madness and antisemitism.
The point that seems to escape them: the fact that there have been mentally ill people around throughout human history makes them no less mentally ill.
Or maybe rather than trying to treat schizophrenics to help them to better function in the world, we should just pat them on the head and tell them that the voices they hear are perfectly normal because there were people hundreds and thousands of years ago who had the same symptoms.
And if the voices tell them to chop their neighbors up with an ax, that’s just them being true to themselves right?
Sure…that seems like a good treatment plan.
Transcestors…. NPN? PNP? FET? Silicon? Germanium?
Depends on how the *doping* is done.

I had a transgender ancestor whose only goal in life was to eat, drink, and be Mary.
Eye C watt ewe did their.
I had one ancestor who was a non-binary prospector who moved west in 1849.
Why? Because there was gold in them/their hills
If the insanity simply returned to campus and stayed there, where it could not escape into the general public sphere, what an improvement that would be.
“misused”??
‘You keep saying that word but I don’t think it means what you think it means.’
Of course, the modern world was basically constructed from the transcestor. The old vacuums could only go so far.
People keep asking me what what the trans agenda is
I keep telling them, trans is not a genda
If there seems to be confusion on how to think of “transman” or “transwoman,” just replace the “trans” with “fake.” It’s easier to keep track that way.

I think “pretend” is more appropriate. Same result.
The misuse of transcestors goes all the way back, 40,000 years ago … when Booga Ma’-‘ooga used to play sick when the hunting party was ready to leave and then steal out for foraging with the women and children. As a result, when the men came back from the hunt they would use Booga Ma’-‘ooga as entertainment for the clan’s dog pack.
It is unclear if he identified as a woman or as a child and further research is needed.
Not preferring to deal in collective thinking (that’s probably the difference right there), I consider my ancestors to be people in my direct backward-looking family tree. The forward-looking family tree of trans people tend more to resemble wizened tumbleweeds. Actual “transcestors” are rarer than lightning injuries.
We all know that wearing a Halloween costume doesn’t not make you Spiderman, nor does wearing a dress it make you a woman.
The mental illness of these poor “trans” people is dwarfed by the mental degradation of those who insist that yes! men can get pregnant and changing your garments can change your actual biological gender.
I was always confused by the claims that men can get pregnant (since it’s pretty obvious they can’t) until I realized the actual point of the slogan was to cover the case where “trans-men” (women who PRETEND to be men) get pregnant.
(In that case, are they denied abortion? Because abortion is now called “women’s health,” and these people are “men,” right?)
I remember our school bringing in an angry black woman to lecture us on something or other. At the time no one had ever met a black person so that raging maniac was the first impression and it didn’t go as well as hoped.
They added a historical fiction writing course?
In seriousness, I guess they could study eunuchs if they want, though those usually were not because they wanted to be trans but because of some odd religious things or because they were in a position where men with genitals couldn’t be trusted.
But the people back then didn’t think eunuchs were women. They understood you couldn’t turn the Yellow M&M into the Green one by removing his peanut. At best you got the Red one… angry and impotent.
If renaming mental illnesses continues, psychiatry is in trouble. A split personality can be called a “Multiple views” person and paranoia can be called An “Untrusting” person. We could remove mental disorders forever.
Sooo…wouldn’t be kind of hard to have a transcestor if they had undergone surgery that made them incapable of reproducing? Inquiring minds want to know.
In case you were wondering if we had reached ‘Peak Stupid’ yet….
I don’t practice in psychiatry, but I know enough to say this is what in Psychiatry 101 we called “Delusion”.
