I saw you mention Jammidoger and I'm a little ? about the context, can you elaborate? Have a great day no matter what tho
Sure! Last year, Jamie did a video with OBGYN Mama Doctor Jones, who is a wonderful person to watch, she uses gender neutral language to talk about reproductive care, talks about trans care, all that good stuff. The video in question is an interview with Jamie, in which he does talk about how trans men deal with a lot of medical transphobia in general but especially in reproductive care, but then be says something along the lines of "But this is a small violin in comparison to what trans women go through" This didn't sit right with me whatsoever.
He minimized everything that he said just seconds before.
We know for a fact that cis women are marginalized in the medical system, that cis women die from lack of care when it comes to all sorts of things but especially reproductive health.
Trans men and mascs deal with that but WORSE. Just an example is that when you are on testosterone, it can be harder to know when you are ovulating or pregnant, and if doctors are already unwilling to listen to AFAB people ( and I say AFAB in this very specific medical context) think of how much harder it is for trans men to navigate.
It can and Has killed us. Robert Eads was denied medical care over and over because he was legally male, and he died of Ovarian cancer. That's serious! that's no small violin. It was kind of crushing tbh to hear him say this. Jamie obviously comes from a place of privilege, he was able to fully transition and I'm happy for him but that's no excuse to be reductive and ignorant.
Tell me, how do you feel about the controversy that's sprung up around Harry Potter and J.K. Rowling recently?
If the 'controversy' you're talking about is J.K. Rowling's stance on gender, sex & trans people then I can confidently say that I hate her for her constant usage of her wide platform to spread misinformation, though it is not what I would call 'recent'. If there is any other controversy, I am unaware of it.
To learn more about how she is transphobic, I recommend watching these specific videos made by 'Jammidodger' on youtube:

HOLD UP! YOU NEED TO WATCH THIS. IT IS EDUCATIONAL ABOUT HOW TO PREVENT YOUR FAV CONTENT CREATOR FROM GETTING GARBAGE HATEFUL ADS!
She goes in to where to change it and how to make sure the hateful garbage shit ads are blocked. The ads are still hurtful and why those garbage people still but ads on LGBT+ or our Allies' videos.
SPREAD THIS! MAKE SURE YOUR FAV CONTENT CREATOR KNOWS THIS! THEY HAVE THE TOOLS TO STOP THIS AND THE MORE PEOPLE WHO DO THIS, THE LESS GOOGLE CAN MAKE OFF OF HATRED.
Just sharing this in hopes it gets some more attention. Jamie consistently makes very intelligent commentary on lgbtq and trans subjects in particular, but this one just hit different
If you watch nothing else of his, I implore you to watch this
If you’re interested, I highly suggest going through the rest of his content, he has something for everyone!
Now that I've changed my blog name, here's an updated list of what my current interests are.
I'm still interested in the IRIS Project (JSE egos), and watching Markiplier, Gab Smolders, and Thomas Sanders.
And I still play games on steam with my husband.
Since I've been pretty much reading non-stop since 2021, I've been watching booktubers. The main ones I watch are Merphy Napier, Daniel Greene, Elliot Brooks, and Emily Fox.
Some other youtubers I've been watching are: Cinema Therapy, The Click, One Topic, Jammidodger.
And lastly, I've been obsessively watching/listening to VoicePlay on youtube.
That's... I think that's it. Don't know how active the fans of any of the channels I've listed are on here but I'll still tag them all.
