My open offer to the #GenderCritical crowd still stands, but now with an update.
Original offer:
If you want less penises in female spaces, fund my surgery or another trans woman's surgery and prove it.
Make a donation to a gofundme and screenshot it.
Prove you don't just want trans people to suffer and that your "penises in female spaces" thing is actually your true objection by taking action to reduce that problem.
Two updates to the offer:
Antiandrogens are used to treat sexual paraphilias and to chemically castrate sex offenders, reducing sexual urges and taking away both motivation and means of future offenses.
So fund HRT for trans women without access to it.
Or campaign for easier access to surgery and HRT for trans women.
The second update to this offer:
If adult trans women don't actually want to medically transition or don't want surgery, offer to pay for HRT or surgery for any adult trans woman and see how many respond.
If it's true that 90% of adult trans women don't want HRT and surgery, then you should find hardly anyone takes you up on the offer.
Try buying up some stock of antiandrogens and estradiol, offer to send it out for free to any adult trans woman who's struggling to get HRT.
You don't even need to spend a single penny: offer to promote or help run a gofundme for any adult trans woman who desires HRT and surgery.
Perhaps offer to fundraise just the cost of appointments at gendercare until HRT and surgery are approved.

I covered the "chemotherapy" thing in that other thread, but basically it isn't a chemotherapy drug.
It's a GNrH agonist, it shuts down production of sex steroids, which includes testosterone - hence why it's used for androgen sensitive prostate cancer AND gender dysphoria.
Chemotherapy agents are literally toxins, a specific type of toxin called a cytotoxin.
They inhibit DNA replication, which means tumours can't grow larger.
Obviously this has nasty side effects, but it's a key tool in fighting cancer.
My GP is now no longer allowed to provide blood tests for me, despite knowing I'm taking HRT and knowing there's a risk of elevated prolactin levels from the antiandrogen I use (cyproterone).
The reasoning is that giving blood tests would encourage me to keep taking HRT.
Which is nonsensical, because I'll keep taking it anyway and suddenly stopping now would be a disaster for my mental health.
They used to be open to working with a private clinic.
Now they won't unless it's the NHS GIC.
I was planning to get a "legit" prescription from gendercare, but now I see absolutely no point since I'd have to keep paying not just for the meds but also for blood tests.
