Hi @HT
I hope you feel better after vomiting all that bile and after calling me a bigot.
I quickly scanned through the pdf you attached, and the last few sentences in the last page caught my attention:
"Matilda Carter is a Lecturer (Academic Education Pathway) in Philosophy at King’s College London. Her
primary research interest concerns social equality and its relationship with dementia."
Philosophy.
Not medicine in any way, not biology, not even sociology.
I am not saying that what the author believes is not grounded in reality, but she is not the person who prescribes HRT, performs surgery, or is actually on the frontline of mental health.
The article is just her opinion and her dissertation on the subject. It may resonate with you, but articles like this come for a penny a dozen and from all sides of the political spectrum. You better not go looking for similar articles coming from the more conservative philosophers.
Regardless, my main point was about language and, yes, you have attacked people in multiple occasions when they wrote, not to you, something that you didn't like or that you found somehow offensive towards you or someone else.
Last thing: I just double-checked and the forum still has the subtitle it always had: "Breast growth for genetic males". Newcomers will read that and assume that people in this forum are genetic males, whether you like the definition or not. I have nothing against having all sort of people, males, females, transgender, intersex, and anything in between, contributing to this forum. I believe that if a new user writes to other under the assumption that this is a forum for "breast growth for genetic males" , it's not the best if the first thing that happen is that someone jumps at their throat.
A repeat myself: it's through education and understanding that this community can thrive, not with attacks based on terminology in the English language from people with zero experience and exposure to these topics.
