I read about the opensuse story and... It seems like the project acted quite reasonably? It seems that certain bigoted snowflakes were triggered over the pride themed open suse lizard thing on reddit. > And I say this as someone who is t

It's easy to talk about what trans people experience when you are not one yourself.

The world doesn't wonder that because it doesn't care about trans people. But what I am saying is simply true.

Funny thing, norway is one of the worst western countries when it comes to trans healthcare. This of course ended up with undermining the future of Norwegian trans people. The world should wonder why the most successful trans people are ame

Would your heart let you say that to the face of a trans person who got refused hormones or blockers as a teen and ended up being irreversibly mutilated as an adult? I wonder...

Wasn't that claim about people who had surgery (or a condition that is visible for which they usually intervened surgically) at birth instead of all intersex people? I really don't think anyone considers the case of Kathleen to be

And again, we have been saying that these criteria are stupid. You can't diagnose someone as trans unwillingly, and then be surprised that they decided to not transition. Teenagers who start hormones or blockers do so because they ask

I had that happen for another medical condition of mine and it did not seem controversial at all.

We have been saying that the DSM is a joke for years, and that you can't diagnose someone of being trans just by ticking boxes, the only way to go about it is self identification. So yeah sure, they used the DSM to diagnose and then pe

I used to be one of these desisters who was bullied out of thinking about transitioning. I think I know enough about the topic. You will say "but then you were not a desister" but I would be counted as one, just like the other kid

People have explained to you previously why this claim is false, yet you keep repeating it over and over. You are counting kids with GNC behavior who never talked about transitioning themselves stopping said GNC behavior. You are also count

The idea that repressors have the same life outcomes as non dysphoric cis people seems dubious.

As long as you have money or good insurance US is WAY way better than pretty much every other country in that regards.

He did not deny that it is in DSM or that there are people who fit the definition provided there. Usually such techniques tend to not work when they are suggested by people who haven't experienced the consdition and haven't put se

This part: I really doubt even lower ranking actual diplomats could reasonably expect to get away with running over an elderly Japanese grandma in Japan. Nearly all the smaller countries would waive even up to a minister-counsellor’s immuni

Reminds me of my doctor who thought that adhd was not real and his solution to my issues was "just do it lmao"
56.
by seethedeaduu 1y ago
Yeah this is sadly common. People with autism, adhd, or who are trans are infantilized and have their agency removed from them when dealing with the medical establishment. In a "I will tell you how you feel" way.

by seethedeaduu 1y ago
I assume that your solution is having a professional diagnosis. Sadly this doesn't really work due to the current state of psychiatry where many people with legitimate issues are being denied a diagnosis and treatment (see for example:

by seethedeaduu 1y ago
The "tiktok self diagnosis" thing is more like a moral panic. It is not really an attempt to feel unique and healthcare professionals would do a lot of good to their patients if they understood this.

And that sex is not an immutable property but rather something that can be changed with medical transition.
