Not sure about the claims you're making here, but what do you think of that part of the Hippocratic Oath where it says "first do no harm"?

I'm not asking anyone to "do harm", in fact I don't want them to do anything Sit there on your ass playing Candy Crush or whatever, just stay out of the way of people doing what they want

If I'm not mistaken, you believe that children who believe they want it should never be delayed, let alone denied by anyone. Not their parents. Not by anyone in the medical profession. Never.

I know you guys like the strawman of unattended piles of free hormones in the park but my preferred policy solution is prescriptions dispensed on the informed consent model, which in a decent world would be seen as the compromise position between OTC HRT and medical gatekeeping

Are you okay with a qualified physician dispensing a professional opinion to someone that their dysmorphia is something they will probably grow out of?

Are you okay with a professional physician telling someone their upcoming abortion entails taking a human life and will inevitably scar them with trauma?

Because people in this country fought pretty hard to protect the "right" of doctors to do that and acted like "Well they still let you get the abortion in the end" was a magnanimous compromise

Are you saying that abortion is a simple straightforward topic? I suggest you take a break from thinking of ppl who disagree or feel otherwise as your enemy.

I think the involvement of a doctor and his opinions in a patient's abortion should be simple and straightforward and entail shutting the fuck up, yes

You can err on either side of that line. Unfortunately you see only one side and are (willfully?) ignorant of the other.

No, if you really think people's right to bodily autonomy is on one side of some "line" and society's right to pressure them into making the correct decision is on the other you can fuck off

And at the very least we have a vivid demonstration of the kind of people TERFs have backing them up - the convergence with pro-life concern trolls is accelerating

Wow that goal post just kept shifting and getting more judgmental as they questioned you. Stuff like that gets tiring after a while.
