Sooooo 1) after years on hormone therapy my body interacts with drugs similar to cis women, for example a different quantity of anesthesia is required.

2) I have DD breasts female genitalia.

Knowing my assigned sex at birth puts me at GREATER risk of harm.

I didn't change my sex marker for fun

One of my favourite things about transitioning is how much more emotionally available I am.

Before I could only really talk to people if there was a point. Otherwise I didn't have the capacity.

Now it's like I just call my friends to check in and hear about their day. It's the best.

Also Jared Leto.

Like yeah he's hot but has he ever been in a good movie?

I mean he was decent in blade runner but still gave off huge "I'm Jared Leto and I'm insufferable" energy.

If EVERYTHING you think you know about trans people has been learnt from social and mainstream media over the past 10 years, and not an actual trans person, it's probably 80% garbage. Talk to a real trans person. Read a book published before 2015. We are anything but new, and We. Are. Going. Nowhere

How are they whinging about a packed supreme Court when they have a packed supreme Court. Fuck me.

Awww I'm glad to hear that!

I'm sure a teenager is definitely not making it easy 😅😅

Yeah it is getting a lot better. It's quite good here and I have friends going that route as well. Not an option for me unfortunately.

I genuinely would love to adopt when I'm ready to have kids however in my country it's not really an option. A total of 200 kids were adopted nationwide in the last year. The waitlists are huge and despite anti discrimination I have heard anecdotally LGBT couples are unlikely to be selected.

Wes Streeting extended the puberty-blocker ban on 6 November 2024.

Leia died by suicide on 11 November 2024.

She genuinely has blood on her hands.

Dont give Chloe any attention, she's like the definition of grifter.

If memory serves she didn't even medically transition at all. And now talks about regret and removing HRT?

She's the world's biggest silly goose, not worth worrying about.

Yeah exactly, on top of not including trans healthcare specialists, on top of demanding randomised control trials when that's not ethically possible with youth, AND hard to accurately measure as the placebo ppl will immediately know they have a placebo.

But similar to other methods you just track via blood tests and once it starts dropping to a level that's close to where you now its too low you just order another one.

To give you some idea though, I put my last ones in in June 2024. My last bloods a month ago my levels were 1100pmol/l

It's slow yeah, so you put it in and it takes about a month or so to reach close to full levels then sloooowly tapers up slightly more then starts sloooowly dropping.

Usually you can tell when it's starting to drop and it's time to get another one, for me it's when I start getting night sweats.

*HER OWN* recommendations that she makes IN THE SAME REVIEW also don't have any high quality evidence, and even have less evidence then the health care she says doesn't have enough evidence.

It is a full hatchet job from start to finish.

I'm sure youre probably all over it already but highly highly recommend an implant if you can get on it. Extremely convenient method.

This got released right after I was re-getting annoyed at how they purposely didn't select any specialists in trans care or with lived experience to avoid "bias"

Can you imagine if a pregnancy study only included cis men, and anti abortion supporters?

These same GCs would be frothing at the bit.

I'm genuinely tentatively optimistic of Australia's overall attitude towards trans health and hope it continues on its current trajectory.

I am deeply concerned and fearful for people of these communities in other countries where this misinformation and propaganda is driving policy.

A major new peer-reviewed Australian report warns that the UK’s Cass Review is fundamentally ill-suited to guide care for trans young people — and should not be adopted as a benchmark in Australia www.starobserver.com.au/news/new-rep...

No worries at all, no disrespect taken. 🥰

Is that how brain rotted that they are that they are like "let's invade the mens section blah blah blah revenge blah blah"?

God, can you imagine being so unhinged?

I'm so glad i CBF with holding on to hate like that.

I swear to god these people have shower arguments with their imagined idea of an uppity tranny and then go online and think we are all just figments of their head canon.

This is, the worst thing I've ever read.

I also had an old house mate who was non binary and would constantly refer to people by their agab. They got into an argument with another trans woman and then later said 'they must be aggressive because their amab' I basically had an aneurism on the spot.

Completely appreciate the sentiment, and acknowledge that maybe this is just due to word count limit, but if you could please put people after trans in future (i.e trans people) that would be lovely thank you.
