Who is one of the academics named in the reduxx exposé, and who has published research directly referencing the Eunuch Archives. A quote from that article shows that these academics are actively involved in the community:

A second, but larger, online survey that Wassersug and Johnson (2007) posted

So we have the user kristoff claiming widely on eunuch.org that he is Krister H. Willette, and we have Krister H. Willette publishing research that shows intimate, active knowledge of eunuch.org along with his co-authors. To doubt that the user kristoff is Krister H. Willette, you would have to believe that Krister H. Willette had his identity stolen by the user kristoff, had knowledge of this for decades, and has done nothing about it. It is far more believable that they are the same person.

You might find it weird, but experts in their fields often conduct speeches on their area of expertise.

Are you talking about Johnson's talk at CSUC? If so, it's not about the talk itself, it's that by mentioning the talk, the user revealed that he is Thomas W. Johnson, as the reduxx article points out. To doubt this, you again have to believe that the academic is intimately familiar with eunuch.org, sees someone widely claiming to be him, and does nothing about it. That's not a rational position to take.

have they been charged with anything

This is revolting behavior, but likely not illegal. IANAL, but AFAIK sexual stories involving children generally aren't considered illegal in the US. That's not the right question to be asking though. Do you think WPATH should be welcoming pedophiles into its ranks, even if they "keep it legal"? I, and most other people, would say "hell no".

EDIT: You made me go and create an account. If you doubt any of this, just go and look for yourself, he's not trying to hide it. He repeatedly signs his messages as "krister", has access to the PO Box mentioned above, and has inside knowledge of WPATH happenings.

Here's another link where "Jesus" claims to be Thomas W. Johnson:

If you have any questions about the survey and its use or purposes, feel free to contact Prof. Thomas W. Johnson ([email protected]). I will be happy to answer any questions that you might have.

Thank you.

I do like socks, but I'm no puppet. I'm interested in discussion about this article because it looks legitimate, which is horrifying. If you're able to disprove the claims, that would be a relief.

The site makes it very easy to click through to the proof. For example, here's kristoff at the eunuch archives claiming that he and two other members presented at a WPATH conference:

You're welcome. The WPATH conference has been interesting. Jesus, eunuchunique, and I all presented papers at the conference this AM. More later.

Looking at the symposium guide from WPATH, you can see the people that presented:

TRACK B Panel Presentations:

Identity development. Eunuchs then and now. Organizer and Chair: Thomas W. Johnson. OAK AMPHITHEATRE

Eunuchs: Seeking voluntary castration. Richard J. Wassersug, PhD.

Eunuchs: Personality and sexuality. Thomas W. Johnson, PhD.

Eunuchs: Body integrity identity disorder and castration. Krister Willette, PhD.

Eunuchs: An historical perspective. Shaun Tougher, PhD.

Case study of a transition from “male to not-male” or “male to eunuch” (MtE). Randall D. Ehrbar, PsyD.

I don't have any reason to doubt the rest of reduxx's work in tying down the three usernames mentioned above to which of those 5 people presented, but here's part of it if you'd like to look into this further:

But according to posts made to the forum in March and April, Johnson let his identity slip and invited site members to partake in an academic survey on “childhood experiences, castration desire and sexual history,” as well as watch him give a talk at CSUC via Zoom.

To me, the more important thing isn't exact identities, but the fact that WPATH consulted with multiple child castration fetishists. That's horrendous, and taints the entire organization's work. As I said in another comment, this is the sort of thing that can turn back the clock on trans rights. Your average person will hear about this and think "trans = pedos". WPATH badly needs to clean house.
