06-April-2017. We thought we would just have to worry about transphobic asshole Dr. Zucker getting 2 chances to speak at this transgender health conference while trans people who want to protest at his talks are banned from doing so, but on the first day of the current conference in Belgrade things just got a lot worse.
Svetlana Vujovic, keynote speaker of the Belgrade Gender Team argued that:
– It would be good to find a cause and a cure so ‘transsexuals would no longer exist’
– used the terms ‘transsexualism’, ‘hermaphrodites’ and called transgenders ‘disordered’.
– misgenders trans people
– Used images of transgender peoples chest and genitals in her presentation without their consent
And this is who gets to speak on the European Professional Association for Transgender Health Conference while transgender people themselves are barely represented even in the audience. Outrageous. Shame on you WPATH!!!

Edit: Quick action by trans activists –> quick results. The EPATH board just apoligized for not screening this talk beforehand. A big mess but at the very least they admitted their mistake. They’re still platforming Zucker though.
