It’s actually a giant problem that the majority of “trans” people aren’t trans in any traditional sense and aren’t medically transitioning. They don’t have a medical problem. They have a social request and most of the science showing transition helps mental health is based on a different patient cohort, the people that actually medically transition. Even the WPATH, the medical guidelines for trans people, shrug at this problem. They shrug over two pages and say, “Find a gender role that works!” When a new surgery is developed, the first thing they do is strictly define the patient population. But we can’t do that because the meaning of “trans” has expanded so much because of activists, not scientists. None of this is serving anyone. It doesn’t help people that medically transition to conflate their healthcare with people that don’t. And it sure as **** doesn’t help people that don’t meet the medical guidelines of being transgender to be offered testosterone and estrogen like Tic Taks. https://bird.makeup/@aella_girl/1825828132886040885
