Why do you care so much about fertility? Do you cry about fertility to oncologists? Or is it just trans people you hope to punish

The kneejerk pro-fertility stuff is something I consider fundamentally right-wing and something that's really its own separate issue, entirely apart from trans stuff Like I think it's horrible how fucking hard it is for cis women to get a tubal or a prophylactic hysterectomy

Has nothing to do with transition or being trans If you're convinced that the possibility of becoming pregnant holds no appeal to you -- and in fact is a major THREAT and RISK to your well-being -- and the side effects also fucking suck, why can't you choose to avoid it

So, say, someone who's been going through crippling endometriosis pain since they were 14, and been told there's little that can be done about it and it might get better with time but to be honest it's quite likely it'll instead get worse, should just have to suck it up

Jesus Christ look I am a hardliner and I think people have the right to bodily autonomy regardless of the situation But in real life we're mostly talking about people whose reasons for "sterilization" involve very real, clear, serious "medical symptoms"

And no, I don't think the blinding endometriosis pain is really that different from diagnosing "severe" in dysphoria in someone who comes in with multiple suicide attempts under their belt etc. After all, both are subjective experiences you can't verify instrumentally
