This post was deleted for the following reason: Hey, sorry, but this seems like yet another sort of looky-loo Trans! clickbait article that doesn't really offer much depth on the topic. Maybe as a part of something that takes a wider look at gender diversity it might work better. Or if the main topic is supposed to be Jack Munroe, again something more fleshed out could work. -- taz



 
She’s one of the first people, well known in another field, to come out as transgender.

Wait, what?

Jack Monroe seems like an interesting person, and it seems like there's a good story here, but the writer seems almost proud of her lack of knowledge and research, and as someone who's both a journalist and trans, I found this hard to read.

"This might well be the era of trans," writes the author, as though it's a fashion trend.
