Thanks! Unfortunately I can’t, but hopefully someone else can.
My perspective on it is just from growing up secretly pantheist (though I didn’t learn that word until I was about 20) in an Evangelical community, and comparing my experiences to others’. I didn’t date very much because all the relationships I saw were disasters, but gradually I noticed a common thread in those relationships of being unable to understand people descriptively instead of prescriptively. You can probably guess it ties in directly to transphobia and homophobia, and if consciously affirmed as part of a person’s ideology, essentialism can often extend to other areas like race and class
Great post, can you recommend some informative books on the matter?
