#transmen being refused pregnancy care or gyno care bc their documentation says male

[butchviking]

one thing i truly do not know where i stand on is the ability 2 change legally documented gender. someone throw some opinions at me so i can figure out wtf i think abt that

#i know i do NOT support the ability 2 just up and change it based on self-id #but im like. ok obviously if someone looks totally male but it says female on their ID they are going 2 have some issues #and they can b put in very real dangerous situations there #but i also very much support the need for sex-specific services. so how does that figure in #and i ALSO think transmen should generally have a right to access most female-specific services so how does THAT figure in #and u get issues w medical treatment w certain things being/not being covered or available depending on if ur male or female #transmen being refused pregnancy care or gyno care bc their documentation says male #i think w medical stuff the issue is pretty much solved by adding extra options on documentation - male/female/ftm/mtf #but that wouldn't solve the issue in other areas #like u cant just make someone walk around with an ID declaring that theyre transgender thats so scary thats none of anyones business
