La Haute Autorité de Santé publie ses recommandations pour la prise en charge des personnes trans adultes. www.has-sante.fr/jcms/p_36366...
Accueillir les demandes de transition sans stigmatisation et proposer un accompagnement adapté
En fonction de la situation personnelle de la personne trans qui s’engage dans une démarche de transition médicale et de l’état d’avancement de sa réflexion, ses besoins varient. C’est pourquoi la HAS recommande de personnaliser la prise en charge et d’adapter l’accompagnement psychosocial tout au long du parcours. L’enjeu est de favoriser l’autonomie de la personne afin de l’aider à identifier et formuler des choix éclairés, dans le respect du principe d’autodétermination. Il est essentiel d’accueillir la personne sans jugement ou idée préconçue quant à son identité de genre et ses besoins, en utilisant notamment le prénom et le pronom demandés. L'identité de genre ne doit pas faire l'objet d'une évaluation psychiatrique spécifique.A l’image de la diversité des situations et besoins, la HAS recommande une prise en charge globale et pluriprofessionnelle, mise en œuvre par une équipe de soins. Les recommandations sont destinées à un large panel de professionnels : médecins généralistes, endocrinologues, psychiatres, psychologues, médecins de la fertilité et de la reproduction, gynécologues-obstétriciens, urologues, chirurgiens plasticiens, médecins du travail, travailleurs sociaux.

La HAS préconise que le médecin généraliste puisse accueillir toute demande de soins et coordonner la prise en charge tout au long du parcours. Il peut assurer le suivi d'une prescription et, s'il est formé, la primo-prescription des traitements hormonaux d'affirmation de genre. Les recommandations insistent sur l’importance de l’entretien initial avec le médecin généraliste ou un professionnel d'une structure de premier recours.Eclairer les demandes de prescription d'hormones et de chirurgie
La prescription d’hormones aux personnes qui la demandent peut contribuer à améliorer leur qualité de vie. Une évaluation personnalisée des bénéfices et des risques est recommandée, en recherchant notamment des facteurs de risques (vasculaires, oncologiques, cardiologiques…). Concernant la prise en charge chirurgicale, la HAS recommande de répondre aux demandes de chirurgie des personnes trans. Elle souligne la nécessité de délivrer une information préopératoire claire, loyale et adaptée sur les modalités chirurgicales, les risques (à court ou moyen terme) et le caractère irréversible de certains actes pour lesquels un délai de réflexion est prévu, afin de permettre à la personne de donner son consentement éclairé.

La HAS attire enfin l’attention des pouvoirs publics sur la nécessité de renforcer la formation initiale et continue des professionnels, de structurer l’offre de soins et de mettre en place une organisation territoriale adaptée aux besoins d’accompagnement et de prise en charge médicale et chirurgicale des personnes trans

A world without Trans people has never existed, and it never will. More than visibility, we need safety 🏳️‍⚧️
Portait of a woman covered in sludge. Only her arms are uncovered. But within the sludge, her face and body are partially visible, revealing a floral pattern on her face and body, pink and white flowers on blue background. This is a repaint of an illustration I did a decade ago. In the original there in equal sign superimposed at the bottom of the canvas. The equal sign is still there, but it is empty now.

MASSIVE good news for trans people in the United States. A federal judge has just granted class action status to transgender people looking to update their passports. This means that very shorty, the window will open to update your passports with the correct gender marker.

im tired of hearing the term "women and femmes" and the newer term "men and mascs" Have we lost the plot in what femme and masc means on its own??? Does "women and femme" include feminine men? Or is that a code to include trans women without saying the "women" part excludes them?

A digital painting for D&D brand Critical role, featuring an elegant tiefling women with red skin and horns, wearing a beautiful crystal-laden purple formal dress, alighting stairs while singing. The environment is opulent with a curved staircase with white and gold balustrading  and a huge crystal chandelier hanging above her. The overall mood is decadent with colonial overtones in the architecture.

King Alex Hirsch is going OFF on Twitter against gen AI, and I have never loved Gravity Falls more 👑🔥
A comment that reads: If you really think that copyright gives artists power over their work as is, ask yourself, who owns the rights of Gravity Falls? It's not Alex Hirsch. It's Disney.

Why are we bending over backwards to defend the "rights" of these megacorporate IP fuedal lords?

Alex Hirsch responds with: lol wat. Disney owns GF because I *chose* to sell it to them, and I was compensated. Ghibli didn’t choose to sell their art to OpenAI, and Ghibli wasn’t compensated. Why are you bending over backwards to defend the “rights” for a 157 billion dollar company exploiting artists

It’s worth noting that JK Rowling is not only funding meritless legal challenges against trans people until they can appeal up to the court that will back them, she openly gloats about how this is where her money is going. This is what the Harry Potter TV show is bankrolling.

Les comédien•ne•s français d'Apex Legends ont été invités à signer un nouvel accord pour céder l'utilisation de leurs voix pour entraîner une IA générative. Les 32 comédien•ne•s ont refusée en bloc et perdent un précieux cachet en ces temps difficiles. 📰 www.instagram.com/p/DGhB5bnoCMk/
Avant même d'être convoquée à une séance d'enregistrement d'un jeu vidéo, le studio m'a envoyé (ainsi qu'aux 31 autres comédiens de la distribution), par mail, une annexe de confidentialité et de cession de l'éditeur directement. Pour être convoquée et donc travailler, je dois en amont accepter ces clauses. À première lecture, elles ne sont pas acceptables, ce qui m'a été confirmé par un juriste spécialisé en audiovisuel. Je me vois contrainte de "lâcher" le rôle auquel je prête ma voix depuis presque 6 ans. En aucune façon, je ne peux "obliger" le reste de la distribution à en faire autant, mais

une chose est sûre: Si nous refusons tous, cela peut avoir un impact. Dans le cas contraire, c'est un coup d'épée dans l'eau.

LES 31 AUTRES COMÉDIENS, SANS HÉSITER, ONT REFUSÉ DE SIGNER CETTE ANNEXE. Nous avons rédigé un refus collectif que nous avons adressé à l'éditeur et attendons une réponse. Car si nous ne sommes pas solidaires maintenant, pour qu'une clause protégeant nos voix soit officiellement mise dans nos contrats, et ce, pour tous les studios qui enregistrent du jeu vidéo, nous ne l'aurons jamais et nous allons dans le mur.

Bien sûr, refuser de travailler en ce moment est aberrant, il n'y a pas ou peu de travail pour certains (beaucoup) et on tire de plus en plus la langue. Alors oui, un cachet est le bienvenu. Mais là, on ne nous demande pas simplement de travailler, on nous demande de céder notre savoir faire pour entraîner l'IA générative qui demain nous remplacera. On nous demande d'accepter ce contre quoi on se bat. On nous demande de nous tirer une balle dans le pied. On nous demande de cautionner l'#IA
