Thank you, it always stings a little more with misogynistic practice when the doctor isn't a man, it's probably a procedure she has to follow though (at least I'd hope on an individual level). From other accounts from trans guys in my area I'm better off just saving for private

I still struggle with academic essays (even though some I've read have really resonated with me) and always have since uni, so I almost feel like I can't/shouldn't contribute on these conversations. Also the aforementioned annoying misogynistic trans men make me worry how I'm coming across

I asked my GP about hysto and I'm a gay trans man and she just asks like "well what does your partner think about that?" I love him but he has no space in this conversation

I can spot a birb but alas, I cannot tell you the etymology and migration patterns of birb

Thank you, I'm good at identifying but not big words, like an amateur bird watcher identifying birds

Yeah I think a lot of people get caught on the tension of language and wider Vs individualistic view and kind of just get stuck there in the conversation

I'm not academically inclined enough to talk about it myself at length but it does frustrate me when trans mascs try to talk about misogyny and it's kind of rebuffed with this idea we must be misgendering ourselves by acknowledging how we're regarded by a misogynistic society

There are a lot of specific issues trans mascs face which are rooted in misogyny and I'd like to see acknowledged more and it always upsets me when the misogynistic trans mascs minority who holds firm belief in misandry are the only ones who tend to get the spotlight

...a kind of "well you chose this so deal with it" that flavours us being denied hysto or birth control and having our bodies highly controlled, or the disgust pregnant trans mascs are regarded with "because we thought you wanted to be a man"

Is there still space to talk about how our bodies are specifically oppressed *because* we're trans men? I don't believe misandry exists and this does cross sect with general misogyny and women's autonomy a lot but there's a special kind of malice given to trans men who want to have a child/hysto...

I just don't like when trans masc struggles that are focused on are "look at this toxic subset of the community insisting women are being misandrists" but yet trans mascs bringing attention to the misogyny we face are never given the same attention as the toxic minority we dislike and clash with

Even when you're called a "gender traitor" it still just feels like that's rooted in misogyny. It's a big "how dare you leave the trenches?" said by people who won't question and dismantle the very war they're fighting

"you're not better than me for not using ai."
no, i am. i am better, smarter, funnier, hotter, and all around less obnoxious than you for that one reason.

Honestly thought we already had that as my GP refuses to do shared care or even just blood tests (I am private though)

I saw someone saying "in three years Gen Z will graduate and be too lazy to try and get a job" like I think 3/4 of us have long since graduated
