Nor do we see diagnosis as validating. Being diagnosed with ADHD directly lead to us growing up in conversion therapy.

Those who make a big thing about diagnosis being positive don't tend to show up to make a difference for survivors like me/us.

I/we don't want diagnosis anyways.

It is hard to make a difference on that. In high school, I had to read Hamlet and Oedipus back to back in English class. They both had a similar experience to me, but the way it was discussed in class... the teacher missed a chance to make students like me feel safe enough to talk about it.

To all the self-proclaimed allies telling me NY is the safest place for trans people:

The exact type of conversion therapy I grew up in is not only legal in my home state, (NY) it's illegal for insurance companies not to cover it.

www.nysenate.gov/legislation/...
NY State Senate Bill 2021-S1662B
Relates to the practice of applied behavior analysis.

Don't forget the long history of ABA being gay conversion therapy. (The UCLA Feminine Boy Project in 1970s)

I'm a trans man that grew up within ABA, being tortured for being trans for years before autism diagnosis.

NY State eventually passed a law to require insurance to pay for ABA done that way.

As a CSA survivor myself, thanks, most don't talk about these things.

But also, sometimes it's the parents.

I don't know if it's still a thing but there used to be an annual game jam (Train Jam) event that was on a long (52 hour) train ride.

For example, if a parent claims their child needs it to "fix" the "behavioral issues" caused by their gender dysphoria, at most they would have to prove their kid was diagnosed with gender dysphoria, have a conversion therapist sign off on it and then their insurance can't refuse to pay for it.

Nophek Gloss by Essa Hansen. Space opera with some of the best trans representation I've seen in sci-fi. The author is a sound designer, and the audiobook surprised me in the best way.

Hi, I'm aro. I was on an Aros In TTRPGs panel last year.

As an ABA survivor, that sounds fun.

Next up, Aros in TTRPGs which I'm incredibly excited to watch as synxiecbeta will lead Cinder Scoria Bit Rebellious and The Lady Dame to share their experiences as Aromantic folks.
