The Second Puberty of Trans Men | The New Yorker Documentary

[@stonedimmaculate2942]

this is genuinely one of the best and most accurate trans-related pieces of content i’ve ever watched

[@whoknowsnotme]

Thank you for posting this New Yorker 💜 "Coming Out as a Trans Woman at Fifty-Eight" from a while ago was brilliant too

You knew the Triggered Brigade would be here. So sorry that the Tiny Egos are so threatened by someone else’s life experience.

Hi

[@paillette2010]

@Snutih oh sweetie. I am not triggered by pronouns. You are so frightened of change you quake in your boot. Typical and predictable and highly boring.

[@BrainyWoman]

You are wrong, sweets. We call ourselves Gender Critical feminists and we are tired of transmen claiming they are women.

[@paillette2010]

@@BrainyWoman Oh dear, so frightened of cultural change and quivering in your boots? You should call yourself what you actually are: bigots

[@butterflymoon6368]

This is really interesting. I feel that the trans women are the most vocal in the trans community so this is eye opening.

[@kelseastar950]

Trans women are the most talked about and mocked.

[@kinkyxkitten666]

Us Trans men are constantly silenced.

It is a journey to find your authentic body and self. As with all journeys, there are bumps on the road, flat tires and awesome scenery. The thing is,,,,,the journey is life long.

Puberty blockers are non-reversible. Finland and Sweden have banned these dangerous drugs.

[@sydneydueck9803]

@@BrainyWoman That's interesting. I would have then assumed that you would be aware of the fact that the effects are in fact reversible- seeing as how once you stop either type, the body will begin producing testosterone/estrogen again. If you're talking about the effects on bone mass then yes that is a risk, however studies have also shown no difference in bone density between children on hormone blockers for 3 years, and children not on blockers

To admit your trans used to be a brave thing now it’s viewed differently is what it is but it took a lot of courage so idc what some worm on the internet says and niether should you😂

[@johnsmith1474]

This is very interesting. I have to presume these people have little understanding that everyone has questions about themself that include questions about their masculinity or lack of it, femininity of lack of it. I would surmise that statistically over half of people who take drugs to force physical changes not only fail to get what they want, they cause themselves other harm via side effects. It's just a really risky alternative to dealing with who you are naturally. It is a path of freedom of choice I suppose, but so is converting to some cult. It is difficult to choose wisely about things of which you have no foundation of understanding, as stated here what you imagine and what happens are generally two very different things.

[@sparkplugbarrens]

You have to rethink your concept of naturality :)

[@whoknowsnotme]

I'm not sure why you're assuming they all have so little understanding, and your other assumption that over half end up worse off is completely contradicted by the evidence. Just because it didn't go precisely how he imagined doesn't mean it wasn't still a massive positive for him to do.

[@bumblebee6573]

Your are correct John on all points. Your analysis is 👍.

[@Teenywing]

“These people” aren’t idiots and do know that everyone has questions and insecurities. Americans always think they know what others are thinking and I can tell you are American by the ignorance of your comment. You badly need some education in the topic.

[@AuntBibby]

the study i saw on the subject actually showed a 1% regret rate for gender transition, which is startlingly low. so u dont have to worry about us john. the only thing i regret is not doing it a decade earlier, for better results
