245 _aTransness as insecurity:
_bAnti-trans movements and the security politics of reproduction/
_cDarcy Leigh
520 _aThis article examines how anti-trans movements deploy security discourses to construct trans individuals as a threat to societal and national security, particularly in relation to reproductive politics. Through a critical discourse analysis of anti-trans rhetoric and policy initiatives, we reveal how transness is framed as a security risk that undermines traditional notions of family, reproduction, and national identity. We argue that this securitization of transness serves to legitimize discriminatory policies and practices that restrict trans individuals' access to reproductive healthcare, education, and other social services. By analyzing the security politics of reproduction, this article sheds light on the ways in which anti-trans movements mobilize security discourses to justify the marginalization and exclusion of trans individuals from society.
