New York Magazine journalist faces criticism over Twitter post

A New York magazine journalist asked her online audience to donate money to a friend's botched surgery after promoting a piece she wrote arguing kids should be allowed to have treatments.

Andrea Long Chu, a transgender female and a critic for New York magazine, faced backlash for a post she made under a link to her article on Monday that promoted her new article 'Freedom of Sex The moral case for letting trans kids change their bodies.'

'I wrote about what justice looks like for trans kids,' Chu captioned her initial post.
