Nothing wrong with a little gender-affirming surgery, as a treat.

you realise this is insulting to people who genuinely suffer due to gender dysmorphia right?

I wouldn't want you to be clueless and an asshole.

No, I didn't realize that that comment would be insulting to people who suffer from gender dysmorphia. I consider "cosmetic" surgeries like breast reductions/enhancements or hair removal/transplants to be gender affirming care, because it's more accurate.

I genuinely don't understand how that might be considered controversial or insulting.

Trump, a vain pustule of a human being who never misses an opportunity to denigrate and insult people's looks and disabilities, getting a fluorescent orange comb-around with the magic of medical science is not the same thing, you know it, I know it, that dumb fuck knows it. You're just intentionally dragging people who genuinely suffer in their own bodies down to trump's septic tank because I guess you hate transfolk that much.

Thanks for self identifying your hate, scumbag.

I'm still pretty confused here. I know the original thread was about how ridiculous Trump looks, but the comment I was replying to was only about hair transplants.

Is it because I'm calling it gender-affirming surgery?

If scalp dismorphia makes it to the DSM-5, let me know.
