The fucking audacity of the judge to say that ruling the definition of woman is based purely on biological sex “is not a triumph of one side over another.”

As if this hasn’t just fucking decimated trans rights in the UK, made transphobia practically law and blatantly supporting the work of groups like the LGB Alliance.

How fucking dare they.

i dont really understand why people are so against ridding of the concept of AGAB/ASAB altogether in the name of "well, how would we define being trans then?"

a woman is "someone who identities as a woman." there is no other definition that does not exclude people who are women.

why does it make people uncomfortable to define trans people as "someone who identifies as trans"? trying to force it into some other definition will always exclude or include someone who either does or does not identify with the label. even if we are defining transness using AGAB/ASAB to say "someone who is transitioning away from/does not identify with their AGAB/ASAB", this is already true; there are GNC binary men who were AMAB who identify as trans and bigender women who were AFAB who identify as cis.

we do not need to keep around an oppressive concept that harms thousands of people in systemic and medical fashions because it would be harder to define some words. words that are used for identification are already going to be nearly impossible to define due to the complexity of human identity.

it's still really hard to believe that I made it. Even in the pre-op there was a part of me that was convinced that I would have this dick forever and that I'd never be fixed... but I did! I have a vagina now! and a vulva! and even though my pussy is swollen and bruised I almost cry every time I see it because it's so beautiful.

You can make it too. It's doable. It's hard and takes a lot of energy but you can do it. I believe in you.

If anyone ever needs help with bottom surgery, please DM me. If I can help, I will. You'll make it to the finish line. I believe in you.

What's your solution for trans people? Genuinely wondering if you think we should be forced into some sort of conversion therapy or even forcibly detransitioned. Genuinely, I have never received a real answer from people like you on what you think should be done to people like me.

Things I want:

1. A total ban on over the counter sale of testosterone and estrogen, with strict enforcement and watch over illegal imports of HRT. All prescriptions of HRT can only be given to people with actual physical health issues, such as men with low T or women entering menopause.

2. Government investigations into organizations like WPATH and large institutional hospitals like the pediatric center in Texas that continues to give HRT to children despite the ban, including audits - to determine whether these organizations were aware of the harm they were doing and continued to finance these programs that were slowly killing hundreds of people, especially children.

3. Have a third party investigate the FDC & FDA, as they are being careless and allowing these surgeries to continue despite them not being verified as safe to preform on the opposite sex, and prosecute the ones who were negligent

4. Complete seizure of all medical licenses of doctors and surgeons who have had multiple lawsuits against them by past patients who they butchered and abandoned, as many have died due to surgical complications that these surgeons refused to treat, and investigations into the causes of deaths of patients who died shortly after having these surgeries, in order to verify whether they died from these surgeries or not

After all, there’s been about 6 studies that have come out within the past 8 months demonstrating that surgeries and HRT actually increases depression, anxiety, and suicide rates in transgender people. All these studies do not think oppression is a sufficient enough explanation of the phenomenon, because it is a continuous pattern that does not shift according to the amount of acceptance of transgender people in each nation. Basically, in high acceptance countries, the rates of depression, anxiety, and suicide are still high despite widespread support.

So I don’t consider it as “conversion therapy” or anything, I think of it as saving your life. Shocking, right? Isn’t it shocking that I genuinely care for your health and don’t want you to be abused by a corrupt medical system ran by lobbyists?

When I saw this I genuinely had to go and curl up in a ball and cry for a second, it honestly means a lot to be seen.

The magnus archives when everything’s the same but the action happens 10 years into the future (starts 2026) and the institute is under scrutiny because some gossip magazines accused them of having misogynistic management because the Head of the Institute was always a man so Jonah Magnus originally born in the 1700s decides to deal with that by his next body being a woman so now he has to deal with periods and gender dysphoria

Humans not only from viruses can get sick but from stress alone too

Try to to do something about invisible threat (poor bots)

Funnily enough, they do understand stress-related illness and injury, especially with education on the line, but there's still a huge cultural clash (and arising misunderstandings).

On Cybertron, medical-related frames are regulated to a mid-to-higher caste in the system as Golden Age Cybertron highly values them and those fields. It stems from the Quintesson Occupation since their conquerors greatly valued intellectual pursuits (and ways to control Cybertronian biology and keep the population docile to their leverage).

That doesn't jive well with American business practices. To the Autobots, June Darby is their equivalent of a highly skilled medical practitioner, especially since she's acting as a trainer or as a head of a specialty unit. On Cybertron, she would be afforded more privileges in accordance with her rank and responsibilities: greater pay, final say on her core staff or floats, better access to fuel grades and a greater vareity of flavorings, off-premise housing on a discount, vacation pay, emergency/sick pay, access to parks, libraries, and more places dedicated to pure recreation (like amusement parks or plays), an allowance to decorate her hab to her preference, greater priority if she wanted to mentor a newframe or a sparkling from the Well (granted it had to share her own medical-frame), seating on public transport, discounted/free items and services through the hospital and university networks, and priority on networking and trade within the system.

Shoot, it's how Ratchet kept his clinic in the Underground alive for that long. He utilized all the privileges afforded to him as one of the best of the best until it couldn't be overlooked. Even then, Ratchet was afforded a heads-up about the raid long before it happened so he could clear out and wrap up any illegal treatment or training.

If Ratchet found out how poor the state of medical care in the U.S., especially the mockery it was twisted by insurance and private equity, the mech would be so infuriated that he would skip English and go back into Neocybex to the point all of his 'strongly worded letters' to many local, state, and federal committees would be in Cybertronian.

Plus, Ratchet is incredibly salty, bitter, and frustrated at the current state of the war... so he'll channel those emotions into the political and social scene on bettering healthcare and patient outcomes by coordinating many advocacy groups... and curating ties to organizations and individuals that have beef to pick over the state of things or have no qualms in upsetting social polite fictions.

Bottom line, Cybertronians are very familiar with stress-related injuries and illnesses, but they're absolutely astounded on how Earth (let's be honest, the U.S. since the Autobots seems to only sole ties to them) can be so forward, yet incredibly backward on things.
