Please tell me you actually know nobody trans thinks surgeries—or ANYTHING involving the medical community—defines your gender? Tell me you’re just being ignorant for the RTs. Please.

If your platform is acceptance. You should push people to accept that they were made how they were made. And no amount of surgery can change that. People wanna be accepted but done even accept they selves
Oh lord. Now, I went with you as far as “internet arguments are silly.” Now you want to start an internet argument with me that shows you don’t even understand the basic principle I was talking about in the first tweet. Really?

The basic idea is: the gender you are assigned at birth is just that, an assignment, the medical community making an (arguably) good-faith guess at what your gender is and telling everybody that’s what you are. But what the medical community assigns doesn’t dictate your identity.

Sometimes, they get it wrong, and they assign “male” to someone who is actually female. (This is the basic, simplistic version of a trans narrative; many people experience it this way, many others do not).
