True.
Apologies. I was just being snarky
I do think that it’s unwise to treat human biology as this strict black and white thing.
We can certainly generalise it. Putting folks into specific categories and what have you.
But that’s, at best, a simple and rather naive understanding of how biology...
Interesting. Care to elaborate?
It’s just that again I only really know him through memes mocking him so I lack the broader context
It’s okay if you don’t want to. I’m just asking
So as an Australian and a millennial, I only really know Mr Pat from memes and our media mocking him over the years.
The man has recently lost his life
RIP
I’m curious to see what impact he has had on your life, your family/friends and indeed your culture
Because truth be told, I’m seeing all...
Interesting
I won’t pretend that my country’s Medicare is without fault. It absolutely has issues. It could be improved and should be
But it saddens me to hear of folks under the US system unable to access medicine due to red tape or legal issues or more often than not, money issues.
Just seems...
Hmm. You know I just realised.
As someone from a country with universal healthcare, I just took it for granted that everyone is able to get gender affirming care and not worry about their budget.
Granted a lot of our gender affirming treatments are still done under our private sector, meaning...
Love Contra!!!
Actually thinking about it, I realise that I actually follow quite a few trans and/or non binary content creators on YT
HannahReloaded, Philosophytube, Jessie Gender, DemonMama, Council of Geeks etc
No wonder I’m such a degenerate ;):p
Interesting.
My lack of femininity is more social in nature.
Both my cultures view my presentation and interests as quite masculine (or at least tomboy in nature lol)
As such I find that I actually feel more included and comfortable in the non binary communities I’ve stumbled into over the...
I think you and I actually share the same concerns.
Like I said, I don’t actually support transition surgery for minors (excluding for actual medical necessity, which I know can occur in some circumstances.)
I mean if someone is legally emancipated, I suppose an exception could be made. Or at...
Oh. Is this a thing in the trans community? Like there are people who don’t put a lot of effort into “properly” transitioning?
I’m not asking to be rude or anything like that. So please forgive my ignorance.
I’m just genuinely curious
Quite sad to see, to be sure
I’ve known a fair few women...
Hmm. Are these people trolls or acting in good faith? Because I kind of thought the whole idea of being a trans woman is to go out of one’s way to present as feminine. So that strikes me as troublemakers, seeking to capitalise on this recent climate. Right?
Somewhat related, but I have read a...
Thank you.
Again I’m the wrong person to ask, I just defer to the experts.
Ask me about nerd stuff and I’m your person but science tends to fly over my noggin lol
It seems that the original study was “over enthusiastic” about its reporting of overall improvements to mental health following...
To be fair, historically speaking, gay people were often literally sought after. They wanted to be left alone, government wouldn’t let them in many cases. Or allowed them to do so for a while because they had money and fame I guess and managed to not annoy the right people for a while. (see the...
I would be wary of really any organisation that is anti anything quoting someone in a respected field. Doesn’t matter the topic.
I mean, for example, it wasn’t that uncommon for homophobic entities to directly quote (and yes misquote) respected medical organisations in order to give credence to...
