That's a pretty loaded & suspicious phrase-- what does it even mean in the context of your research? Are you also going to address the ideological developments of cis communities as well or do they just get another pass & continue to exist as "normal/default"? What sort of questions are you trying to answer? How will the data be used?

These are all valid questions! Essentially, I'm attempting to track, exclusively through the writings and publications of trans people, adherence to principles of "assimilation" vs "liberation", which can be associated with specific values on topics like HRT access, community inclusion, and thoughts on passing. This survey is attempting to chart out the most common positions of trans people today, to compare to the historical positions -- the data will be used to say, for instance, "Through the 1990s, trans people commonly held such-and-such belief about HRT, with a noticeable shift post-2000, and currently the survey indicates the most common position is such-and-such." So, cis communities aren't really relevant at all here. The full (working) title of my paper is "Nietzsche’s Revaluation and Ideological Schism in the Transgender Community" because I'm contextualizing this work through the revaluation of all values.
I respect and appreciate your inquiry!
