Has Anyone Else Seen Those Videos Of Gender Affirming Surgeons “rating” Trans People’s Femininity/masculinity?
Has anyone else seen those videos of gender affirming surgeons “rating” trans people’s femininity/masculinity? Like they’ll stitch a video of a trans person documenting their transition and the surgeon will be like “Their face has perfectly feminized/masculinized” or “Even after the effects of hrt, their face is still masc/fem so I may reccomend getting facial feminization/masculinization surgery to really seal it”. And every time I see one of these I can’t think anything other than wait what???? Not only are you giving extremely unnecessary advice, but openly posting whether they are “passing” enough for you? Also just the assumption that all trans people want to be strictly masc and fem? That those are the only two options and that trans men/transmascs must be the epitome of masculine and transfems/ trans women must be the epitome of femininity? And it’s not like them stitching or reacting to their clients either, from what I’ve seen it’s mostly just random trans people who did not ask for this.
It feels like they are just looking at trans people like specimens to fix and perfect and force them into their neat little boxes on what they consider is a “complete medical transition” and “complete masculinity/femininity”. In the videos they act like they are the deciders of what is considered a masculine or feminine “look”. They always go out of their way to say how much of a trans ally they are and how they are helping trans people out too.
Also, never seen one about androgynous medical transitions. I have however seen them try to frame nonbinary people as trans men and trans women and force femininity/masculinity on them through “advice”.
Just because you work in trans healthcare and call yourself an “ally” doesn’t mean you are. Especially if you do shit like this. You don’t get a pass just because of your job.

Does anyone know any alternate names to Dahlia piercings that isn’t joker piercings? I wanna get some and I also think the call for a name change is extremely valid, but I also don’t want to go around like:
"if tumblr dies you can find me on bluesky" "if tumblr dies you can find me on Instagram" if tumblr dies you cannot find me. It's over. I'm free.
A reminder, if you're reblogging anything about Red Dress Day, to ensure you're not reblogging from terfs trying to push 2Spirit individuals out of a day that represents them too!
We stand with and remember our missing and murdered 2Spirit siblings. Terf rhetoric and ideology is COLONIZER BULLSHIT AND WE DONT RESPECT IT.

A message to my fellow undiagnosed / diagnosis complicated autistics:
It’s sad that I even have to say this but please do not just say “Glad I never got diagnosed” and abandon the autistic community. Even though you are not put on the registry, you are still a part of the community and you can’t just “check out” because it will affect you either way. Even if hypothetically it somehow never affected you, just ignoring what is happening and potentially going to happen to autistic people is allowing fascism to continue. You know it’s eugenics, and standing by and watching them strip the privacy rights of people without doing anything, betraying your fellow autistics and allowing them to face eugenics while you do nothing for “comfort” will cause extreme harm. Staying silent is not being “neutral” or “staying out of it”, it’s death. We must stand with and fight with our diagnosed autistic siblings, especially those with high support needs. Now is not the time to ditch the community for “safety”, now is the time to fight.
One thing you can do right now is contact your representative and express your opposition for the registry and the taking of medical files from diagnosed autistics without their consent.
