@tarantelma Eu acho que a produção foi enorme. Um concerto muito bem pensado.

Sempre que vejo malta nesta rede a dizer que a Lux Tour é pobrezinha:

@AgostinhoJon @Publico Sim, é preciso pessoal (médicos, enfermeiros, auxiliares, administrativos) para vos conseguir internar e tratar

@Publico 50 mil ja da para abrir pelo menos 8 a 10 hospitais psiquiátricos

A meta de 20.000 assinaturas da petição, online desde 3 de abril, foi largamente superada em apenas cinco dias. Veja aqui: publico.pt/2170543

@brinkle17 @M_HelenaCosta @real_IcePhase @SICNoticias So you don’t believe in functional MRI and you think the male brain synapses are the exact same as the female ones. It’s ok, it doesn’t need you to believe.

@ricjcc @M_HelenaCosta @real_IcePhase @SICNoticias Gender is a fabricated concept, a load of stereotypes. No true doctor, other than a psychiatrist can take it seriously.

Terapias de conversão sexual são "perigosas" e "absolutamente grotescas", dizem especialistas #Echobox=1775573240" target="_blank" rel="nofollow noopener">sicnoticias.pt/pais/2026-04-0…

@brinkle17 @M_HelenaCosta @real_IcePhase @SICNoticias Yes, of course I am. It has nothing to do with your blind ideals that make you not flexible to just admit you can be wrong and spreading false and hurtful medical information

@ricjcc @M_HelenaCosta @real_IcePhase @SICNoticias You must be really the bottom of the class... there is no "gender". Humans have a sex and personalities.

@brinkle17 @M_HelenaCosta @real_IcePhase @SICNoticias again, that’s just your opinion of what a responsible/competent doctor should do. In my opinion they should educate themselves with credible sources, be up to date and help the patient. It’s not the doctors’ quality of life that’s on the line. A good doctor works to help others

@ricjcc @M_HelenaCosta @real_IcePhase @SICNoticias A penis does not define your sex. Inserting a lump of flesh or removing a penis does not change your sex nor your gender. And a responsible and competent doctor should never tell a patient that it will.

@brinkle17 @M_HelenaCosta @real_IcePhase @SICNoticias And I have never said they didn’t need counselling. That’s why interdisciplinary teams exist and involve psych experts and psychologists.

@brinkle17 @M_HelenaCosta @real_IcePhase @SICNoticias First of all, they are different concepts, sex and gender. And if you really are a doctor, you should know this. Functional MRI as proved men and women use different areas of the brain with different purposes and the brain does not necessarily care about the genitals.

@brinkle17 @M_HelenaCosta @real_IcePhase @SICNoticias If you are, you’re not very up to date. I suggest more study and seeing more patients.

@ricjcc @M_HelenaCosta @real_IcePhase @SICNoticias I AM a DOCTOR too you ignoramus!!

@brinkle17 @M_HelenaCosta @real_IcePhase @SICNoticias It is a falacy to compare a concept such as gender to a leg. Male gender is more than a penis. So men who get penectomies because of cancer stop being men?

@ricjcc @M_HelenaCosta @real_IcePhase @SICNoticias No good doctor tells a patient "yes, that leg doesn't look good on you, you are right to want to amputate it".

@brinkle17 @M_HelenaCosta @real_IcePhase @SICNoticias People who go through that face ENOURMOUS suffering. More than you can think of. And they should get the best care and evidence available and not based on beliefs of people such as you, who obviously lack the simple empathy for be able to understand a simple concept such as this

@ricjcc @M_HelenaCosta @real_IcePhase @SICNoticias It never is good to affirm a lie. And certainly iy is idiotic and borderline criminal to tell a patient that he is living in the wrong body.

@brinkle17 @M_HelenaCosta @real_IcePhase @SICNoticias What are your credentials to make such a claim? Don’t mistake your opinion with the results we see from several reputable sources. Science doesn’t care about what you believe in. And btw, this is NOT your life. So it SHOULD NOT be your decision to make.

@ricjcc @M_HelenaCosta @real_IcePhase @SICNoticias Gender affirming medicine IS malpractice

@brinkle17 @M_HelenaCosta @real_IcePhase @SICNoticias Source? Proof? I am sure a LOT of good stuff is coming out from gender affirming care. We can believe opposing ideas. But the truth from several science articles remains valid.

@ricjcc @M_HelenaCosta @real_IcePhase @SICNoticias I am sure a LOT more terrible stuff is going on with some very ideologically engaged doctors.

@brinkle17 @M_HelenaCosta @real_IcePhase @SICNoticias I never said there were no cases of malpractice. We had recently a case of a dermatologist that wrongly classified nevi surgery to get more money from the public health system. Individual doctors aren’t saints. And yet singles cases don’t change the veracity of the science, sorry

@brinkle17 @M_HelenaCosta @real_IcePhase @SICNoticias Why do you think in Portugal a GP or a Gastroenterologist is seeing trans people for this issue? We have Endocrinologists, Psychiatrists, Child Psychiatrists, Plastic surgeons, Urologists, Psychologists and Social workers that work as a team.

@M_HelenaCosta @brinkle17 @real_IcePhase @SICNoticias Também pode repetir o seu ad libitum. Centenas de outros dizem o contrário. Por esse mundo fora.

@ricjcc @brinkle17 @real_IcePhase @SICNoticias Pode repetir ad nauseum o mantra. As famílias dos menores contam algo muito diferente. Aliás, até alguns profissionais o disseram publicamente.

@M_HelenaCosta @brinkle17 @real_IcePhase @SICNoticias A Maria Helena bem sabe que não podem ter acesso às agendas dos profissionais porque há sigilo médico a preservar (e também porque, sinceramente, não é da vossa conta). Mas não é por gritar MENTIRA várias vezes que passa a ter razão.

@M_HelenaCosta @brinkle17 @real_IcePhase @SICNoticias Mais uma vez: MENTIRA! As crianças são seguidas em consulta nos hospitais públicos com a regularidade que a Pedopsiquiatria consegue dar (o possível para o serviço público, cuja melhoria não é uma das vossas prioridades) e são seguidas com regularidade em psicologia particular

@M_HelenaCosta @brinkle17 @real_IcePhase @SICNoticias Mentira. Diagnóstico não significa acompanhamento. E o acompanhamento é longitudinal.

@ricjcc @brinkle17 @real_IcePhase @SICNoticias Mentira. São diagnosticadas em 10/15 minutos. Isso inclui menores de idade.

@M_HelenaCosta @brinkle17 @real_IcePhase @SICNoticias As pessoas transgénero já são acompanhadas, na sua maioria, por médicos, psiquiatras e psicólogos. Isso nunca mudou. Mas não cabe à medicina certificar a identidade de alguém. Cabe à medicina ajudar a pessoa a ter uma vida plena e saudável.

Entretanto, na Índia, o projeto de lei elimina o direito à autoidentificação e, em vez disso, limita o reconhecimento àqueles definidos por características biológicas ou físicas. Isso inclui pessoas com variações intersexuais — em que a pessoa nasce com características sexuais que não se encaixam nas definições típicas de masculino ou feminino — bem como identidades tradicionais usadas há muito tempo pelas comunidades transgênero na Índia. O projeto de lei também torna obrigatória a certificação de conselhos médicos e autoridades distritais para aqueles que se submetem a cirurgias de afirmação de gênero. bbc.com/news/articles/…

@brinkle17 @M_HelenaCosta @real_IcePhase @SICNoticias If you are not flexible enough to read papers that are methodologically correct and can’t distance yourself from your firm beliefs, that’s not on me. The papers are there.

@brinkle17 @M_HelenaCosta @real_IcePhase @SICNoticias Look, pal, you can keep focusing on each article. I can show you lots. NEJM or JAMA are extremely hard to publish on. The studies came from several countries and populations all over the world, NOT PERSPECTIVES. But original studies, systematic reviews and meta-analyses
