Yeah people don't understand how bad the MH industry can be. Its why these things shouldn't be gatekept, it should just be available under informed consent.
A thing that is really frustrating about a lot of health care providers is they insist on using outdated "best practice" blood levels for trans fem HRT which puts our estradiol levels significantly lower than cis women.
Im lucky that I have a dr in cali who is good and insists on me having proper estradiol levels but in the past they were significantly lower with other doctors. And I can absolutely tell the difference I feel so much better with my current levels and physically the effects are noticable as well.
Thats what my brother does, but he is a cis het man who works in construction as an electrician. He is very left leaning so he does try to challenge things where he can.
But I can't do that. I am a trans woman and confrontation legitimately would put me in danger and it wouldn't work anyways. People claim I am biased because I am in a group who is being targeted, its bullshit beyond belief but thats how people are.
Your understanding of the effects of immigration is childish.
mastodon is fantastic and is honestly better than lemmy community wise.
