I missed that
nah this is kids
detransition rates are low for adults
Probably more like 16+
mmmm
grayer zone
that's not true, hormone blockers
... but they should be able to cuz it's free
I'd still say like
they should get some approval from a doctor to take it
but that's easy
Informed consent
Jack ass
Well, that's probably a tenet of transmedicalism...

yes
thats' literally
not
transmedicalist
```Transmedicalism is a term for a wide range of beliefs in the transgender community that are critical of transgender people who haven't medically transitioned and/or don't experience major dysphoria. Many transmedicalists (or "transmeds" for short) focus on gatekeeping.
```
trans people who don't transition are still 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

???
but then you risk unnecessary treatment
a waste of resources
Why should hrt require a GD diagnosis

[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"
I ate fast and you two were gone <:pepehands:644890202304937994>
```2:13 PM] acb: trans people who don't transition are still valid!
[2:13 PM] acb: just as valid!```
Of course... but I still don't see how believing the above makes **one not a transmedicalist**
