“… The “dirty secret” of the insurance industry is that most denials can be successfully appealed…”
Could you please point out how their statement was transphobic? Basically, what they said is just that “gender affirming surgery can sometimes be harmful to health”, and surely that’s just a true statement, not even an opinion, really.
They are saying gender affirming healthcare is often harmful when the medical literature available says the exact opposite. What motivation do you think they have for misrepresenting available medical knowledge?
I’d love to see the double blind white paper that quantitatively shows that.
The thing is gender affirming surgery is for treating a mental state.
That means it isn’t qualitatively different than other surgeries to treat mental states
That doesn’t mean its bad, but it does mean its potentially dangerous, and counter-medicinal, unless carefully vetted and compared against nonsurgical treatments.
I didn’t see them say “gender affirming surgery is often harmful”, they said it can be harmful. Regarding “often”, they said that “what neurodivergent people want is often harmful”, which may be wrong, IDK, but is definitely not transphobic.
As for their motivation, we can’t know. They didn’t explicitly indicated and there’s insufficient info to make assumptions.
“Gender affirming surgery can be the opposite of health care, supporting what neuro-diversity thinks it needs is often harmful to that individual. For example, you wouldn’t prescribe unlimited sleep for someone with narcolepsy.”
… Brushing your teeth can be the opposite of healthcare. sometimes idiots mistake electric toothbrushes for dildos and shove them all the way up their ass.
-
Gender affirming surgery is healthcare.
-
The idea that trans is “neuro-diversity” is… huh? Do you think gay people as “neurodivergent”?
-
Neuro-divergent people often have to advocate for themselves.
-
Doctors are educated more about the subject than a random lemming and are more suited to making medical decisions. The research says basically nobody regrets it.
-
Surgery is harmful. Sometimes the doctor has to cut you open. But the benefits are often much greater for the patient.
