    Dawkins found the retraction to be unprofessional, and then chose to withdraw from the board of that organization. It seems like it had less to do with a personal opinion about trans people, and more to do with the professional standards of an organization.

    I doubt that. Dawkins teamed up with religious fundamentalists to speak out against trans rights multiple times in the past.

      can we get a citation on this because the dude has always given me odd vibes, but the selfish gene and climbing mount improbable were excellent. a citation would be useful in discussions with fam (lots of dawkins fans).
