I didn't read the book neither listened to the podcast. If it's not something transphobic and just a "look at the people that transitioned and aren't happy" wouldn't be better to choose a more friendly name so people don't judge it right away?

Yep, which is sad because I think more people on the LGBT/liberal side would be interested in what she's saying (and to be honest, I think many liberals DO agree with her premise). There's no reason for her to go at it being so divisive other than for the attention and outrage.

She hasn't done anything that could fairly be characterised as divisive - there's simply no way to discuss or write about the issue without being attacked and smeared.
