I would hope hormonal treatment would be outlawed. To take transgenderism seriously is laughable and the damage it does to people, their mental state, and bodies is disturbing. Transgenderism as a movement is disgusting and it must be stopped. Those that suffer from dysphoria need compassion and the truth, not lies that indulge delusions.
One of the most powerful moments in my life was about two weeks after starting hormone replacement therapy. I woke up one morning and immediately noticed something was different. After several minutes trying to figure it out, it struck me. For the very first time in my life, I didn’t want to die! Never in thirty years had I felt that, and I wanted to weep for joy at the feeling.
Of course, if we think of being trans as one gender’s brain in another gender’s body, this makes perfect sense. Obviously the brain isn’t getting the hormones it needs to function. And, of course, it’s the brain, not the body, that defines the person. If I lose my arm in an accident tomorrow, will I be a different person? Of course not; my personhood was not defined by that arm. But it is defined by my brain.
Every single trans person I know (triple digits) reports the exact same experience with hormones. And there’s an abundance of medical literature to verify it. So, your hope for our access to medically necessary treatment to be outlawed is effectively a hope to doom us all to suicide. I beg you to reconsider, do some research, and try to learn more about us. All we want is to be able to live our lives in peace, to know the happiness that all humans deserve. Our existence is no threat to you, so why should you wish us harm?
If you want to learn more about trans people, from an actual trans person, feel free to send me a private message. I would gladly answer any questions you have to the very best of my ability. That offer extends to everyone else here, as well. I would welcome the opportunity to engage with anyone who is curious enough to do so.
