      So it's a bit more than $75 here if you add everything up but it's still in that area of "affordable if you have some extra income". I think the big difference might be that a lot of trans people in the UK have less money available because of employment discrimination and rent.

      I think you have this view of, like, "UK bad" because of the rhetoric from Prominent British Writers but the reality on the ground is more complicated and I'm not sure if we have it worse on average here than in the US, really.

      I've been reliably informed my transition process, which took under two years, would have taken five minimum in the UK, from "decide to transition" to "on HRT, can get letters for surgery, license and passport say F and proper name"

      I understand Germany and Norway are similar, it's not just the UK

      Ellie I transitioned in less than a year and it would be even less than that had I not spent six months feeling guilty about spending money on it until my wife kicked my ass and forced me to use our savings on it.

      Ok, fair, I stand corrected on this point I guess Your country still sounds like a terrifying place where I would avoid even stopping over at the airport to change flights for fear I'd be stabbed to death in the ladies room

      It sounds like that because all of our major newspapers are more socially conservative than the Conservative Party, not because that sort of thing actually happens.

      It's complicated, it really is. Britain, even Scotland, is not a particularly trans-affirming culture. Public support is tepid, the papers are all anti, and employment and housing discrimination, though illegal, remains a problem.

      OTOH, changing your documents is easy, violence is very rare, you can usually get medical covered under the NHS eventually and things are mostly... fine. The worst thing about being trans in the UK might just be that the UK kinda sucks for everyone.

      This is a very strange thing to hear as an American. A lot of leftist Americans *idolize* what we hear the UK is like.

          I mean yeah but the starting point is still seen as broadly superior in terms of college debt, medical debt, time off and working conditions, etc.
