People not affected by a medical condition sure have a lot of opinions about how your medical condition should be treated. Almost like they think that the community should be entitled to a veto of your body autonomy.

@JennaFights4You How hard is it to understand there are OB/GYNs that specialize in trans healthcare?

It's crazy. You can spell it out in the simplest of language directly from the doctors themselves and transphobes still choose cognitive dissonance and insults.

🏳️‍⚧️🏳️‍⚧️🏳️‍⚧️🏳️‍⚧️ My OB/GYN was kind enough to list out her reasons as to why a trans woman should see an OB/GYN. This is for the numerous transphobes and TERFs who say we are "stealing appointment time from REAL women" or "why not see a urologist?" Here's what she gave me, 1. Neovaginal care is real medical care. Doctors monitor tissue health, healing, scarring, and issues like narrowing or irritation over time. 2. Infections Trans women can experience bacterial or yeast infections, along with general irritation or discharge that needs evaluation. 3. STI Screening HIV, HPV, gonorrhea, chlamydia, etc, are still risks for trans women just as they are for anyone else who is sexually active. 4. Cancer screening Although there is no cervix, the tissue used to create a neovagina can still develop abnormalities and, in rare cases, cancer. 5. Pelvic Floor Health Surgery changes anatomy, and that can affect muscles, urinary function, and comfort during sex. 6. Sexual Health and Comfort Pain, dryness, and changes in sensation are all valid medical concerns, not just "something to live with." 7. Long-Term Surgical Follow-Up Even years later, things like scarring, structural changes, or rare complications can come up. 8. Hormones Hormones affect genital tissue. And OB/GYNs can often help monitor how estrogen affects tissue health. Additionally, they can prescribe hormone replacement therapy. The point is really simple. A trans woman doesn't require a uterus in order to see an OB/GYN. She benefits from seeing one because she has a body that deserves competent, specialized medical care. This isn't complicated. It's just healthcare.

@stacycay I've been saying for like a decade I thought Arin was closeted but I feel like if he was he would have transitioned aeons ago, so I stopped thinking it.

You can tell how trans women are women because when we talk about trauma, everyone comes out to downplay it, dismiss it, or gaslight us. Speaking up often just trains us to stay silent, and that shows exactly how real and valid our experiences are, even if society refuses to acknowledge.

@whooith @ohyha72 Whichever one is the best feeling and most realistic looking is what I want.

@whooith That makes me really hopeful. The hardest part is deciding which method.

@SageStarwind so I knew what it would feel like before I had surgery I do remember that. after surgery it's 1:1 the brain knows what should be there.

Now, i won't call my male puberty "rape", but i will say that it has been the most defililing non consensual thing done unto me, that has left me a broken pitiful thing that recoils from the touch of another and has a concerning disposition towards sex and intimacy.

I do not want to be “brave”. I don’t care about being “valid”. I have no interest in “defying patriarchal beauty standards” or “deconstructing gender roles”. I just want to be happy.

these people are talking about rib remodeling surgery like it's a standard procedure and not an egregious, insane example of how misogyny turns your mind into liquid waste in the pursuit of validation

All of the science disagreed with the far right, so they are making up studies as they go along to try to justify the genocide of trans people. They'll do the same to other minority groups eventually if we don't draw the line here.

Genuine question.. why are trans people just expected to concede to people who say we should have the ability to transition, but don’t view trans women as real women? I don’t think accepting the lies of transphobes will get the trans community more rights.

This is all because a cruel, misogynistic children’s book author decided to make it her life’s mission to use her wealth to harm an innocent, tiny community. And she is proud of it.
