The following link is to an article about someone's brother who was a transman and who died of ovarian cancer. The fact that the person interviewed is the deputy speaker of the House of Lords, shows that both transsexualism and tragedy know no social boundaries and a poignant reminder that even after SRS we often have reminders of our original biological sex which can cause problems and even kill as well as therapies for the new gender may increase some risks. Includes a piece by an oncologist who specialises in transgender patients.

A Non Discriminating Killer

Cancer is a political windfall to those in research. To be blunt, it is the golden goose as billions are pumped into finding a cure that is NOT already in nature and costs almost nothing. I've ranted about this for years and am not going to plow the same ground again. When thinking of why hasn't a cure been found, keep in mind Jonas Salk, do a little research. Think what he did to the Medical Industry built up around Polio.
Anyone may DM me if you are serious and have questions.

that framing

is a bit unfair

the issue is cis doctors being shit, not trans people "forgetting" their "biological sex"

It should not be that we have to decide between "getting some appropriate cancer screening" and "not having every blood-test cause errors & warnings that out us to various people along the path they take" but that is where we're at

(uk specific) we shouldn't have the people profiting from private healthcare being a lot of the same people who are Why there is demand for private healthcare, after literally running their competition out of the country. but that is where we're at

we shouldn't have to deal with cis doctors citing the lie filled works of nonces and rapists to deny us our healthcare, we shouldn't have to deal with bastards who invent chemically impossible processes to justify fucking over our regimes. but that is where we're at

trying to pin the blame on us for the things that cis people do to us, doesn't help us and just helps them continue to fuck us over
