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.

People can be given it for self administration 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.

More nonsense about trans healthcare:

Blockers are apparently bad because they're also used for cancer, or for chemical castration of sex offenders.

They're specifically used for androgen sensitive prostate cancer. Basically, blockers block hormones (duh). For prostate cancer, lowering testosterone can help shrink the prostate and any cancerous tissue.

They are NOT some kind of chemotherapy drug and don't have the same side effects.

Another rant about trans healthcare:

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.

Fun fact: I DIY my HRT meds, and the products I buy are identical to what my local pharmacy dispenses under prescription.

I'm an adult so it's too late for me as regards puberty blockers, but it'd be exactly the same. Hormones and blockers are not controlled substances, neither are they "unlicensed". It's totally legal to buy them privately for personal use.

"Unlicensed" doesn't mean illegal either.

Strictly speaking, stuff like herbal sleeping pills containing valerian are "unlicensed".

Something crazy about trans healthcare: you get denied for depression.

Gender dysphoria nearly always causes depression.

Which transition would relieve Also, the media go on about "fast tracking".

Imagine a knock at the door, and you answer it and there's a cute little bunny there and the bunny does a little nose wriggle and looks up at you and then hops into your house, just hopping around.

Followed by kittens.

And a bear And then the chilled out capybara arrives and climbs into your bathtub and just chills

Another thing about autism rights: I recently tried to get a new campaign up and running, but couldn't handle what needs to be done due to my personal struggles (such as mood swings and fatigue from recovering from addiction). I feel incredibly guilty about that, but it's an important cause that is more and more important every passing day.

So I'm going to ask someone else to handle it while I work on myself and recover my strength.

Kelli Stapleton, the woman who tried to murder her autistic daughter and had 1000s of supporters arguing that she should have no punishment, also did this:



She's up for parole in 3 years and expected to get it. Her supporters responded to a fundraiser for her daughter's medical bills by saying that Kelli (the attempted murderer) should get the money instead.

It's so disgusting.

Back in the day people asked why we needed an autism rights movement.

This is why.
