The curse of being intelligent is that you wish you were dead 😔
ok so something I noticed being around cis girls a lot is that if they aren’t wearing make up it makes them think they look like a boy, and then I realized that the reason they think this is because femininity is often associated with changing something about yourself (like shaving, makeup, etc) and masculinity is stuff that just naturally happens (like body hair, or no makeup etc.) and I think that’s SOOOOO dumb cuz women have to do so much already to prove themselves in this stupid world AND they have to prove that they’re a fucking woman in the first place by following rules made to hold them back. Peace and love

Hi Miss Thorn.
I was recently reading through your trans writes article about you choosing not to do PR for the NHS. In one line you mention that the medical system "exaggerates or wholly confabulates" certain medical risks, and I was wondering if you could give more of an explanation or some examples about that stuff. I tried looking it up on my own but I didn't really know what keywords to search for, and I don't want to fall into some weird anti-science conspiracy theory rabbithole (especially at a kind of vulnerable part of my transition where I'm finally giving "doing hormones" more serious thought as a Thing I Would Actually Do rather than an idle fantasy where the results magically "fix" me (or a kind of anxiety where it doesn't do anything of value at all :< )
Thank you regardless for your great videos over the years,
A Very Nervous Enby
Sure! So, I would argue that the Cass Review is a prime example of this phenomenon. It concluded that puberty blockers have caused zero documented cases of harm as long as they've been used in Britain, but they might cause some unknown kind of harm in the future, somehow; a harm that hasn't been detected in any of the other countries who have used them, whose evidence - by the way - was discarded.
So we have no evidence of past harm, no idea what a future mystery harm might be, when it might happen, the mechanism for it, or why it would only show up here, now, and not in any of the other countries who have given trans kids blockers previously...
This is clearly making shit up!
And yet the Cass Review was used to justify a ban on blockers.
The only way this makes sense is if by "harm" they mean "being trans." Cass expressed particular concern that most kids who start on blockers go on to medically transition, which - yeah duh? But whereas a normal person views this as a neutral fact about the world, transphobes see it as bad - they see being trans as a bad or dangerous thing to be - and so they want to make people "avoid it" as much as possible.
This is what I mean when I say pathologization exaggerates or in some cases outright fabricates risks of medical transition to justify restricting our bodily autonomy under the guise of "care."
I’m sorry but I’d do anything if a trans woman asked me to. Ofc I’ll be your death metal band’s roadie. Anything for you queen 🙌
