one of the weirdest experiences ive had being trans and out so far was when i went to the doctors about hrt and she walked me through the consent form (the one that tells you youre doing irreversible damage to your body and you're a freak) with a pen in her hand like crossing shit out and being like "this isn't true, this is actually completely false, this is totally an exaggeration" and it was stuff like "research on hrt is limited poor and speculative" or "hrt can increase risks of disease" or "testosterone makes you more violent and angry" like idk having it written in a way intended to make you feel like you're making a big mistake is one thing but the fact that the form has like literally proven false info in it and the doctor had to verbally be like sorry this isnt even true its just on there because society hates trans people. is wild

fun fact: if there is a ‘no dogs on the beach’ sign, please respect it, because the beach is probably a nesting site for plovers, terns, or other marine birds. their little babies are the size and shape of dandelions and your dog might eat or chase and terrify them and you wouldn’t even notice
wait here’s a photo
