trans people who don't transition are still valid!
just as valid!
sorry, gonna eat lunch
lmfao
I don't think they say non transitions are invalid...
They just not trans
@Deleted User the ONLY claims I will make are that [1] hrt should require GD diag and [2] srs should require GD diag
Okay that's false
Niether should require it
???
but then you risk unnecessary treatment
a waste of resources
Why should hrt require a GD diagnosis
5:14 PM] acb: ???

[5:14 PM] acb: a waste of resources
I don't think all unecessary things are waste
If you think this then stop playing video games
we should set a higher standardfor medicine than for playtime
b/c it has longer and larger consequences
(╯°□°)╯︵ ┻━┻
Yeah you can fuck off
I don't think physiological preferences are comparable to "play time"

Of course... but I still don't see how believing the above makes **one not a transmedicalist**
Unless you're like... an exclusionary or **trans only, transmedicalist** which seems like a particularly rare position
We canf allbe soulless robots with No physiological préférences
Which is why I'm not really concerned with the label of being a transmed...
I mean... there's not much reason to be upset, if you're taking this personally...
It's because you feel personally you could not have had access to a counselor to build the rapport or be in the system long enough to get a diagnosis?
But this is why socialism/free healthcare is actually so vital
If we had had free health care, people could have been diagnosed earlier for hormone blockers
And that paves the way for more controlled/secure transitions
I already have one
Has nothing to do with me personally
I'm just disgusted by the view
why is that?
.
anyone wanna play showdown
Because I think it's immoral
It's immoral to try to filter out some people from transitioning when they may not need it and could possibly change their mind?
If anything this just seems like appealing to expert opinion...
Which might be paternalistic but
What do you mean by need
No one "needs" anything
Do you have a poll of experts that say they're against the informed consent model?
