    frankly medical processionals should have no say over whether a trans person gets HRT or not.

    they should warn you of what might happen if you have health conditions but frankly those interactions aren’t common enough to justify this level of draconian gatekeeping in most societies.

    this is why trans people on a DIY regimen often do much better than by asking for “professional” help because most cis doctors are evil, gatekeepers or too ignorant to know what’s good for us.

    you missed the point. children can give informed consent to things that might prove harmful down the line, like ballet.

    not so much for ADHD meds, because parents often force these on them to make them compliant and as punishment.

    there is no medication without side effects. ADHD meds can have bad consequences, but we shouldn’t ban all people from using them. apply the same logic to HRT.













  • By that criterion, Xi Jinping and the Iranians are also complicit in Ukrainian genocide

    idk what made you think this would be a gotcha moment. this logic is actually very consistent with Albanese’s, any world leaders complicit in genocide should be punished.

    I agree Trump should be tried by the ICC as long as you maintain this logical consistency for Biden, who was the first after Oct 7 to mainstream this narrative that Israel is justified in ethnically cleansing Palestine because “all Palestinians are Hamas dontcha know, Jack?”

    you seem to have fallen victim to the logical fallacy that claims you can’t focus on more than one big thing at a time.
