You keep being told to shut up if you’re not informed on this and then repeatedly opening your mouth to prove beyond a shadow of a doubt that you have no idea. You’re a dangerous idiot.
Comment on Baroness Cass wants to push age for starting transitioning to 25 (NHS Adult Gender Identity Clinics)
Flax_vert@feddit.uk 5 days agoIf it’s 16, then fair enough
But more importantly, going through the wrong puberty isn’t life changing?
I believe whether or not the term “wrong” to describe puberty in this instance is the subject of debate, both medical and philosophical. I have even heard some claims that puberty can fix gender dysphoria (although I don’t know how scientific this is, so don’t quote me)
If the NHS have decided not to give puberty blockers, well they have people making these decisions who are far more educated than me in this area and probably moreso than you, so I trust their judgement.

They also went on a rant about immigrants like a month ago. I dont even think they’re actually a committed fascist or anything just a Brit whose brain has been absolutely cooked by TERF Island fascist media.
Hopefully they are young enough to grow out of it and learn. Doubtful though.

Yeah I revised that statement. They’re just a fascist.

I have no problem with legal immigrants. In fact, I think we need to be more accommodating to them.

Your country along with the US carrying the imperial torch after them are the two biggest responsible entities that created the conditions for migration as a means to survive. You are a reactionary with transphobic brainworms who refuses to listen to people who are more kind to you than deserved.

Because you are an idiot who doesn’t listen to people who actually understand the subject.

The problem is that the decision to prevent the use of puberty blockers isn’t based on the decisions of medical experts but rather political groups more determined to erase trans people.
The Cass review, for example has been heavily criticised for its methodological flaws.
As someone who is both trans and with experience working in a related field of medicine it has been heartbreaking to see the NHS warped so cruelly by bigots and their agenda.

I hope you’re doing better now. I hear other people claim that about the pro-trans side. But I do believe politics should be kept out of medicine.

All the pro-trans side ever want in this debate is better medical outcomes for trans people. If that’s bringing politics to medicine then idk what the fuck apolitical medicine is.
Flax_vert@feddit.uk 5 days ago
is it based on a political presupposition or nah
I have heard people claim it’s possible to be trans without gender dysphoria. Really muddies the waters over what the aim is. I just want people with gender dysphoria to have it eased/cured (only if actually possible) and have a more comfortable life where they aren’t suffering. If someone learns to accept their biological sex, or if they medically transition to achieve this, either way, it’s a win. Different people likely have different needs. But hey, I’ll leave that to the medical professionals. The more we understand gender dysphoria and how to treat it, the better.

You are constantly advocating to get it into medicine.
