I love how you used pharmacist as both a location and a person in the same paragraph, and now I’m picturing them locking the pharmacist in a little cage after someone chases after to catch them when they just walk out.

It’s the only way to be sure!

Game over, man! Game over!

These words… They cause me… Discomfort.

Trans surgical procedures have some of the best outcomes of any major procedures. they are performed on consenting individuals who are always well informed and at or very near adulthood, and only after many other interventions have been ongoing. People who receive these interventions show incredibly low rates of regret (compare for example the percent of people who regret knee replacements or probably circumcisions), and enjoy increased happiness and satisfaction by almost any metric.

Basically every major medical organization in the world (and certainly in America) agrees these interventions are medically useful and should be performed. While there are doctors who dissent, they are in the vast minority and almost never actually work with any trans people, but rather insist all the doctors who do work with trans people must be wrong. It’s not a controversy in the medical world, just the political one.

So, yeah. To paraphrase, “When reviewed by people without the same clear and obvious cultural bias, circumcision only conclusively provides an incredibly marginal benefit, with evidence lacking for other supposed (and still very marginal) benefits.”

Can I just read Pratchett without fucking anyone? I’m ace and it’s just really smelly and uncomfortable.

Yeah, I get you. I think the two panels directly above those are also likely stopping points, just a cis dude who’s attracted to trans bodies (everyone can have a fetish but…) or a cis dude who thinks gender exploration is fascinating (much healthier imo)

I think you could stop at any point along the chart, although some of them seem pretty far from comfortable to me.
