I've gone over this before (link), but I'll copy/paste what I've already said as I go through the apparent sources

The Ciba Collections mention "assigned sex of rearing" (1948) in the chapter about about sexual differentiation, with that page being about (CW drawn nude diagrams) Gonadal Dysgenesis (link). It doesn't appear to be discussing trans people at all nor does it use coercive(ly).

The 1965 "source" uses transgender the "same year" it was coined (doubtful), mentions papers from 2007, doesn't use coercive(ly), and clearly states it is the 20th edition—which came out in 2008, unlike the 15th edition which came out in 1965. An archived version of the 15th edition, from the actual publication date of 1965, is available on Internet Archive (link)—it doesn't mention trans people.

The 2002 claim is so easily debunkable it's not even funny. You can read it here (PDF). At the top, one of the first things to be written is "2002 (updated in 2011) from Timtum: A Trans Jew Zine", which originally was published in 1999 by the same author. You can scroll to read the scanned page (29-)31 here (link) (edit, if not, it can be viewed here [link]), CAFAB is not used in the original (nor does it explain how it was coined)

Claudia Johnson (quoted in Cosmopolitan) is a relationship, intimacy, and sex therapist, and I'm unable to decipher how such professions would make her a reliable source on this historical information. There are a lot of claims made, but none of them have or are solid evidence.

The 2015 source admits they do not have a source. A trans woman has already come forward and claimed she coined it around 2009 (link) (original sources listed aren't trustworthy/time stamps aren't accurate, similar to Korasera's post).

AGAB, ASAB, DSAB are all phrases that existed prior to the 2000's. The acronyms didn't just suddenly exist. There was a history of figuring out the wording.

The earliest I could find "the sex they were coercively assigned at birth" was on July 3, 2010

Here is an excerpt from another Livejournal

“Coercively assigned” is another vital neologism [newly coined phrase]. It’s not just more syllables to the word ‘assigned’- which itself made headway against the reified naturalism of one’s birth and its meaning for gender- it is a term with political power that we had to bring into the conversation to illustrate something. Not only is the M or F on our birth certificates an assignment, but it is coerced. Parents cannot say no, (just as many parents could not say no to doctors who wanted to mutilate intersex infants and reconstruct their bodies), and you cannot say no, can you? The term “coercive” adds needed meaning that reveals the truth behind natal nomenclature and assignment: the truth of its constructed nature and its oppressive effects

This was from October 21, 2010

Which blatantly states how the C was newly added

I am not a person of color and do not agree with Korrasera's announcement that only 3 non poc people disagree with her.

Her actions toward people who have done nothing more than point out discrepancies with her arguments upsets me, her way of dealing with people who simply state they have a different opinion is appalling to me, and her inability to admit that she is harming herself and others by refusing to hear beyond her scope of knowledge has hurt those around me.

Please reblog if Korrasera has in anyway offended/hurt/frightened/concerned you.

If you agree she needs to be held accountable for how she treats people over both sensitive and insensitive topics, please reblog this post so we can start open and honest communication about this issue.

I meantioned the number of reblog because this entire thing has been about korrasera lying constantly

I sent the message to her because I had blocked her

Here is my question

Why is asking for a trigger to be tagged acceptable but someone asking to be blocked from veiwing a blog that does them mental harm unacceptable, because I didn’t demand she block me in the beginning, I went to her in good faith, I explained my situation and I asked for help, and I was demonised for it, she repeatedly escalated it, she has lied repeatedly but she has a voice, an audience, that will lap it up and accept anything she says

Thank you. <3 

Fortunately we live four blocks from the hospital, so it’s been easy for me to get back and forth. 

Centrists bad!

She seems to imply “conservative” is the same as “authoritarian”. Which is...literally not how it works? Wait, no, and she’s one of those geniuses who thinks US politics are, quote, “firmly center-right to right-wing,“

I think it was Tim Pool who had a video with a survey I can’t find which indicated the American Right stayed in place, but the Left went farther left. Hence the support for antifa, for example. Or the calls for segregation. And I suspect Korra would be very, very far to the left.

Needless to say, Korra blocked @checkyourracismtmblr pretty much immediately.

I like the part where she says she writes to “inform, rather than debate”, when almost every single post I’ve seen from her has involved strawmanning her current target wildly, usually to the point of making crap up out of whole cloth, often where they couldn’t see her. Including this post. Seriously, >check my tag for her<. Or this line;

If you’re scratching your head because it seems like that doesn’t make sense since it’s a political position that’s only defined by it’s relative position to other political attitudes, yeah, it doesn’t make a lot of sense. That’s because I believe that being a moderate is less about representing any actual political position, but rather the need to avoid politics and reduce the tension created by them.

Wow, how convenient that you can define moderates by the motives you want them to have instead of any conventional definition. Totally not a pseudointellectual attack on strawmen or a known fallacy at all!

She’s not aiming to inform anyone, she wants people to validate her sad delusions.
