When politicians talk about how trans people are subhuman or deranged or biblically evil, it contributes to trans people being stigmatized and depressed. As a result of this culture of cruelty, many trans people end up committing suicide.

Where are the corporations firing these people? Just because trans teens sometimes commit suicide quietly behind closed doors does not make the violence somehow less terrible.

    Pretty sure its just hate and the vast majority of them don’t even know what medical science can do for a trans person. The vast majority of people who transition do not regret it which leads me to believe the treatment is more than some depressing impossible goal.

      Gender reassignment surgery is still classified as “cosmetic surgery” in the US

      And it has the lowest rate of regret of any cosmetic surgeries.

      So it’s more likely a patient would regret a face lift or lip filler over chopping their dick or tits off.

      It really puts it into perspective how popular and reliable these procedures are for affirming people’s gender
