I think trans people DESERVE a healthcare system that is apolitical and has our best interests at heart. That goes both ways. A gender critical therapist that does not think trans women deserve dignity cannot ethically offer health care. But neither can someone who affirms everyone without examination. A lot of F2Ms regret transition, and there needs to be an open and honest conversation. And people with AGP particularly deserve a therapist that will inform them so they can make an informed decision. That doesn’t mean they can’t transition, but the context of their psychology is helpful. The future of trans healthcare needs to be actual healthcare.
