scxrletbxtch: documentingtrash: Somebody make that two button meme it’s good society’s made it so trans people are more accepted, but the rise in trans men very much has to do with these teenage girls thinking being trans is the new trend. they confuse body image issues, trauma, mental illness, etc for gender dysphoria. lots of it is fetishization of trans men too, peep all those uwu soft gay boi “trans guys” popping up lately. it’s all confusion. i’m not saying any of this from a place of hate, but rather experience. i detransitioned from being a trans man. i’m lucky my insurance blocked my access to hormones or i would’ve fucked up my life entirely. i went to gender therapy too and every time i had an ounce of doubt about my identity, she continued to push being trans onto me. this is common for most gender therapists to do. it’s repulsive.anyways that was my quick rant. rogd is real, though i agree the studies are lacking. this is facts. i went through a trans phase for 3 whole years of my life. i think my about page even still says he/him bc i’ve been too lazy to change it to they/them. gender therapists are so afraid of going against the public agenda and getting complaints of transphobia against them that they’re afraid to question whether someone’s “dysphoria” could actually be a case of body dysmorphia, autism, etc. and someone was like “it’s ableist to think autistic people don’t have an understanding of their own identities,” but i genuinely didn’t before i had the autism diagnosis. i chalked up my blunt way of speaking and my being “different” to others to being trans. and i came to this conclusion of being trans after spending too much time on social media and seeing the “trans is beautiful” rhetoric everywhere. there’s a major ethical dilemma in the medical field. planned parenthood currently provides HRT to legal adults on an “informed consent” basis, even offering same-day prescriptions to those applicable. this completely bypasses the first rule of receiving HRT found in the WPATH SOC7: a well-documented and persistent case of gender dysphoria. what happened to “live as your preferred identity for at least a year?” i lived as mine for THREE before realizing i wasn’t trans. fortunately i realized this right before becoming a legal adult so i dodged a bullet of mistakenly getting HRT, but what about the people that come to this conclusion too late? that turn 18, get a referral for hormones, and only THEN realize they’re not trans? the medical field needs to stop this “affirmative action” model for their patients where they affirm their gender identity and take action with no questions asked. the prohibitive model obviously is just as bad because people don’t take too kindly to you insinuating that they’re not who they say they are. clinicians need to thoroughly evaluate their patients and try to find a root cause of gender dysphoria just in case it happens to be influenced by other aspects such as social media, body dysmorphia, autism, etc. otherwise this is downright medical malpractice. i’m not by any means suggesting that transgenderism isn’t real— there are many who feel genuine dysphoria over being born in “the wrong body” and HRT and surgery ARE the best paths for them. but now that the frequency of trans referrals has surged in recent years due to almost aggressively positive coverage on social media, we need to take extra precautions to not misdiagnose someone, as it can be catastrophic. -- source link
