US companies like "Folx" and "Plume" are raising millions to provide HRT delivery services, even as telemedicine abortion pills are being outlawed. There's that "cis privilege" again.

Folx claims to already be shipping hormones to 12 US states. On their website, Folx claims they will offer erectile dysfunction medication in the future, making it clear they know the overwhelming majority - roughly 90% - of ♂️ who identify as ♀️ do not undergo surgery. Image
Both Plume and Folx claim to offer virtual consultations as part of their subscription packages with the implication that applicants will be confirmed to receive HRT as soon as possible. Image
For about $100 a month, injectable hormones are available "discretely," meaning that teenagers who manage to raise the funds or can find a willing adult to assist them could potentially receive hormones without their parents knowledge. ImageImage
Plume offers a letter of medical support to receive HRT for $150. This is a shocking breach of medical ethics, as it implies the referral is guaranteed for this payment. Image

Larry Flynt, founder of "Hustler", has died today. Pornography was and is defended as "free speech" because it upholds male entitlement to violate and access women.
Pornography is called "free speech," but "only women give birth" is called hate speech.

"An entire class of women will be treated in these ways so that others can have what they call freedom of speech: freedom meaning free access to women’s bodies, free use of women’s lives, speech meaning women’s bodies as a medium for those others’ expression." Image
"The same people who say the pornographers must be protected because everything must be published and protected are the first to say that feminist work opposing pornography must not be published in order to protect free speech." Image

A thread of examples of what are called "sissy captions" or "transgender captions" from Instagram.

These are increasingly appearing all over social media.

"Children have greater exposure to pornographic material.
Rapes against young girls have become commonplace now and its depravity has ceased to shock us. However, what is new is the rapid rise in the number of young boys involved in sexual offences."

timesofindia.indiatimes.com/blogs/legally-…
An assessment identified that the boy’s pathway to offending was the viewing of adult pornography on his phone at an early age and there is “an epidemic in its own right of young boys accessing pornography and then acting it out in inappropriate ways."
