It's June 1st, let's talk Pride
Since Pride Month just started in the US, I wanna talk about something I heard recently from someone who is an ally and was well meaning but misinformed:
There are no trans children getting gender affirming surgery. The very rare, less than .04% on teenagers, getting surgery are almost entirely chest related and almost entirely cis-male, GETTING REDUCTION SURGERY TO AFFIRM THEIR GENDER GIVEN AT BIRTH. Study linked.
"Oh but the doctors could still do it, legality doesn't stop people"
Healthcare is a FOR PROFIT business in the US. Doctors are currently letting women who need abortions bleed out, get sepsis, and DIE because they are afraid of losing their medical license. You think that Doctors, nurses, entire surgical teams, entire hospitals, pharmacies, rehabilitation specialists, and licensed therapists are all in cahoots and risking their medical careers for what most surgeons would consider OPTIONAL surgery and not GENDER AFFIRMING HEALTHCARE? With the no insurance?
THINK. I EMPLORE YOU TO RESEARCH. DO NOT BELIEVE THE RHETORIC THAT IS BECOMING 'COMMON KNOWLEGE' IN THIS COUNTRY.
Happy Pride to my Trans brothers and sisters, and my non-binary bitches too.
HAPPY PRIDE, YOU FUCKHOLES
