I read the article and found a good deal of annoyance towards Chaz too. Not for talking about how he feels hormones affected him, but rather for generalizing that to other people. Speak for yourself, Chaz!

At the same time, I am also really frustrated sometimes with that "certain category of cis people" you mention that claim that hormones can't -- poitically can't -- have any effects that at all cross the border between physiological and psychological. Or else their feminism will explode. It's just that the effects of hormones on each individual person are so personal that, while you can draw some sweeping patterns in terms of what many people experience, you can't really draw bright shining "IT IS LIKE THIS" lines like Chaz seems to.

(hint: I feel like hormones certainly have some effects on me that have psychological impacts. My feminism, as far as I know, remains unexploded) (hint^2 cartesian dualism is not the only way of looking at things)
