'… without giving credit to the source. Even when the "othered" group speaks the dominant group forces them to translate their experiences into the oppressor's categories.' Yeah, this pattern sounds exactly what has been happening to transsexual women attempting to speak about their experiences.

"Hermeneutical injustice" or "Epistemic injustice" are the other terms for it, now that I've looked it up: 'A powerful group impose their own language onto the "other" group, portrays that group as ignorant of itself, takes knowledge from the "othered" minority group & strips it of its context. …'

My wife recently tried to get an endo referral for both continuing HRT and diabetes management. The endo refused to make the appointment without a psych eval, even to manage her diabetes because the original referral was for both!

it's fucking bleak trying to get this shit covered, i'm so sorry i've been with my psychiatrist for 6 years and she's been holding my medical necessity letter for insurance in part because i didn't talk about surgery much with her (who i see for 30 minutes every 3 months to talk about meds)

This is me back on my hobbyhorse but no transmed will tell you to "rawdog street e" because the core of transmedicalism is the surrender of authority over transness and trans people to doctors. Nobody telling you to DIY is a transmed no matter how much "but it's trans, and meds!" makes sense to you

Just like Uber and Lyft head out to destroy mass transit and ended up reinventing buses. The objective is to deprive you of every public space and every public utility, then give you shittier, more expensive versions you have to pay someone for.

Everyone, truly literally everyone, secretly yearns for the mechanics of transition. Not because they necessarily want it for themselves but because it’s just a better world if it’s a thing that can happen. The problem is that they don’t see modern medicine to be sufficient. They’re stupid.

They see HRT and all this stuff as an imperfect transition, and they won’t accept anything short of the magic, wish upon a star, genderbend potion BULLSHIT. Everyone is ready to engage with the idea of transition, they’ve just been inundated with propaganda that the way it exists is insufficient.

I don't think account (repository) or PDS deletion was part of the original design either -- I speculate. Because there are a lot of implicit assumptions in the design of BlueSky that data will exist permanently forever. (Basically being designed on top of a financial "blockchain" data structure.)

The debate continues,

Nerdy mouse girl labeled 'girls on a five day cycle' saying

"Basically if you're on Estradiol Valerate and can't get a different ester like Enanthate you should be on a five day cycle for optimal hormone stability.
It's easiest to conceptualize it as doing one shot for each day of the week in a month without repeating:

"Being Trans" is not a mystery cult that requires initiation by a priestess, but what if it was? I think there may be some historical precedent for this.

I don't know if it is worth the effort for psychology to reclaim the word "Gaslighting", but a stranger on the internet who is wrong about something, and arguing from their incorrect position, is NOT gaslighting you. They are just wrong. That's just called 'being wrong'. Words have meanings.

The word "Gaslighting" is not a synonym of the word "Lying". "Gaslighting" is an interpersonal abuse technique used to force a victim to only trust and rely upon their abuser to determine what is *reality* and to force the victim to distrust their own physical senses and memories.

I'm a native English speaker, & when someone says "if A, then B" I believe that I am understanding this statement very clearly, but then all the angry responses to that statement are angry about "if B, then A" which is very clearly NOT what was said by the first person (& in context very different)
