I want fewer gender-affirming surgeries... That's why I advocate for the liberal use of puberty blockers and HRT, so their body develops how they want it to.

Then you'd only have to worry about bottom surgeries if it causes them dysphoria.

[-] kristina@hexbear.net 30 points 2 years ago

Yeah surgeries suck hardcore and there's so many things that can go wrong. Prevention is way better

[-] queermunist@lemmy.ml 63 points 2 years ago

Lets triangulate ourselves into making everyone hate us, that'll definitely work.

[-] HelltakerHomosexual@hexbear.net 46 points 2 years ago

don't worry, biden will protect us like he has so far!

[-] corgiwithalaptop@hexbear.net 26 points 2 years ago

Not rabidly genocidal enough to appeal to Republicans

Not smart enough to support trans rights

Just mediocre enough to pass the buck....to Republicans. Who will hate them anyways.

[-] Zuzak@hexbear.net 11 points 2 years ago

Ah, the classic International Chess Federation strategy.

"is a staunch supporter of trans rights"

'allows actively harmful things to happen to trans people'

Pick one?

[-] SnowySkyes@hexbear.net 41 points 2 years ago

I don't think you can call someone a staunch supporter of trans rights when they say shit like that.

[-] ashinadash@hexbear.net 41 points 2 years ago

IN PRIDE MONTH EVEN

If you vote for the democrats you hate trans people bulborb-stare

[-] Luna@hexbear.net 31 points 2 years ago

No, you don't understand. Biden is the harm reduction candidate because Trump will do this but worse /j

fuck biden, redacted in the town square, but like

[-] queermunist@lemmy.ml 10 points 2 years ago

These things are already happening on the state level and I don't think Trump would be able to successfully do this at the federal level, so really, what's the difference?

[-] radiofreeval@hexbear.net 29 points 2 years ago

Have you actually heard of anyone getting gender affirming surgery before 18? Everyone I know was in their 20s. Already, nobody gives minors bottom surgery and top surgery for minors is very rare. The white surgery on minors things seems blown out of proportion by the right to me.

[-] Ecohex@hexbear.net 22 points 2 years ago* (last edited 2 years ago)

i think there's a few cases of people getting surgery at 16 or 17, but these would be cases where the kids have been being treated from a young age with therapy/blockers i imagine. not some 16 year old turning up for their first appointment and getting surgery

[-] SoyViking@hexbear.net 20 points 2 years ago

Chuds imagine that teenage boys these days are going to the doctor with a cold or a rash or something and then the doctor pulls out a tiny guillotine, chops off their cock and tells then that they're a girl now.

[-] Ecohex@hexbear.net 7 points 2 years ago

god i wish that was me

[-] ashinadash@hexbear.net 5 points 2 years ago

The future I live and work for gui-trans

[-] radiofreeval@hexbear.net 7 points 2 years ago

Also getting HRT as a minor is already impossible to do legitimately without parental support. Youth GAC bans just seen like a totally manufactured issue to me.

[-] D61@hexbear.net 2 points 2 years ago

The problem is, this paves the way for LEGISLATORS to stand between medical professionals and their patients.

Already, nobody gives minors bottom surgery and top surgery for minors is very rare

Correct, if its so rare, then why do we need legislation that forbids it? Why do we need a presidential administration to weigh in with their opinion that they think ALL medical intervention (this includes hormones) should be forbidden? This is an unforced error by the Dems. The correct answer is to leave it up to the patients and their doctors.

[-] radiofreeval@hexbear.net 2 points 2 years ago

Exactly, medical safeguards already exist for this, along with almost all treatments. Minors transitioning and wrongful transition is wholly a medical and professional issue, not a legislative one.

[-] SwitchyWitchyandBitchy@hexbear.net 27 points 2 years ago* (last edited 2 years ago)

After the illegals comment I'm waiting for him to call us the T slur.

[-] iridaniotter@hexbear.net 19 points 2 years ago* (last edited 2 years ago)

High chance he says transgenders (probably has already tbh), low chance he says transsexuals, very low chance he says the t slur imo

[-] tactical_trans_karen@hexbear.net 23 points 2 years ago

My money would be on "transv***ite" before the others.

[-] Frogmanfromlake@hexbear.net 26 points 2 years ago

There are still people who think Hillary would have done a lot for trans rights when she’s made it clear that she thinks Dems should do less lip service to win elections. This won’t sway the diehards.

The staunch supporter of trans rights whose most explicit statement on the topic is that he wants to ban trans healthcare?

Words have no meaning anymore.
