    All my homies hate trans-medicalism, this will inevitably lead to a “cure” or something bullshit like that, we don’t need medical validation in the first place

      Maybe we should try to “cure” all of it. If there was a pill that would “cure” my cisgenderness and make me trans, maybe it would be worth a try. Maybe I’d be happier as a woman even if I didn’t identify as one before.

      Sexual preference too. Maybe I’d be happier being gay. If I could “cure” my heterosexuality, maybe my life would be more fulfilling.

      It would be worth a try anyway.

      Bring on the pills! Better living through chemistry!

      (Obviously I’m being flippant. Any sort of “cure” would be designed to only go one way and we all know which way.)

      Agreed!! Biological determinism is eugenics. And it’s not true, with neuroplasticity we can change. Also, there are multigender and agender people
