I don’t even know what to say about this. Decisions like this are so cruel and so harmful, in ways that go far beyond just the scope of seeking medical care as a queer/trans person. The psychic toll of living in a society that hates you is very real.https://twitter.com/RollingStone/status/1412876585879982082 …

Imagine the shame that a person, particularly a young person, might internalize living in a society where doctors can turn them away on “moral” (
) grounds. Imagine what that might do to their confidence, their sense of self. It’s evil.2 replies 1 retweet 27 likesShow this thread -
Shame has been one of my big struggles. I wasn’t even consciously aware of it for so long, the fear I felt around strangers, the discomfort I carried with me everywhere worrying that my presence was making others uncomfortable…and feeling that it was my fault!

And it was life in a transphobic society that did that to me, that made me feel like I was wrong, embarrassing, shameful, like I had to hide myself away. I hate that young people today are being sent the same terrible messages.
