Genuine question from me, a trans guy.
Why are so many current, self-identified Jungians super conservative and transphobic?
They hide behind ideas of the anima and animus as some kind of "proof" that trans and genderqueer people don't exist but tbh it's easier to argue the opposite, that the animus and anima are proof that we're all a bit non-binary and for some of us an aspect coult be out of keeping with sex assigned at birth anyway.
I wonder if some of them believe that archetypes are something immutable and in some way "proof" that the "natural order" is sticking to gender and other stereotypes, but when you look at archetypes from a more cross-cultural lens you can show that archetypes are fluid and ever changing.
It just reminds me of Jung's description of the dreams of former Nazis as becoming more escapist and filled with increasingly archaic traditionalist symbolism as a way to dissociate from trauma and cognitive dissonance?
But yes, interested in what other peoples' thoughts are.
