Trans men should be ashamed of their top surgery scars because I had cancer! - Janet from Chelmsford who has probably never spoken to a trans person in her life
Janet Murray@jan_murray

Dear Lush (cc Chelmsford City Council), As a woman who had half a breast removed last year due to cancer, I am writing to raise my concerns about your “Proud of My Stripes” window display. I am also, on behalf of other women who have experienced breast cancer, respectfully requesting its removal. Because mastectomies are not a fashion statement, an identity marker or something to be celebrated. They are something women undergo because they are ill, because they are frightened, because they are trying to stay alive. Around 59,000 women are diagnosed with breast cancer in the UK every year. Many will undergo surgery - a mastectomy, lumpectomy or other procedure. Others choose preventive mastectomies because they carry a high-risk BRCA gene mutation. If a woman chooses to have her breasts removed to affirm a gender identity, that is her personal choice. I honestly don’t know the number of women who have elective mastectomies for this reason. What I do know is that it is a tiny number compared with those for whom breast surgery is medically necessary and not something to be celebrated. I think I speak for many women who have experienced breast cancer - and for their families - when I say this: Breast removal surgery is not something I regard as cute, playful or empowering. Nor is it something I believe retailers should be celebrating. For that reason, I am requesting that the display be removed and that @ChelmsCouncil apologise for promoting it on social media. Yours sincerely, Janet Murray

@Tweetymctweet19 @SherlockCPH @RAndromeda87 as someone with actual mental health issues completely unrelated to identity in any way, they don’t care about mental health issues.

@Tweetymctweet19 @ThenonbinaryC @RAndromeda87 Therapy that aims to help a person accept who they are in reality isn't "conversion therapy". Trans activists use that term because you are homophobically co-opting harmful things which are done to the gay people, to make trans people seem like victims when they aren't.

straight people often say LGBT education isn't age appropriate but will ask toddlers who their crush is

@SherlockCPH @Tweetymctweet19 @RAndromeda87 if it’s causing distress it’s not healthy. most surgeries that aren’t physically medically necessary happen to ciis people. you have never gone on a campaign against that.

@Tweetymctweet19 @ThenonbinaryC @RAndromeda87 You're confused again. Im perfectly comfortable saying that I hope everyone gets the mental health support they need so that they don't feel like they have to chop off healthy parts of themselves.

@gaming_stitcher Ok, you are dumb, good to know, I'll go slowly. That picture of a tiger you posted.. That isn't the drawing being discussed. This isnt a conversation about tigers, its a conversation about a specific piece of ill thought through advertising.
