What part of I do not support cosmetic genital surgery to resolve mental distress was unclear?

A large number choose to intrude whether they are obliged to perform femininity or not. They appropriate women’s identities by claiming to be women, not just by deifying gender norms like clothes and makeup.

It solves nothing for women, just makes accessing surgery and women’s spaces afterwards even easier.

How does it make accessing women's space easier? Pretending to be a woman is a requirement for the surgery, not vice versa.

It's creating a system where the medical establishment is actively encouraging men to enter women's spaces. I don't understand who you think this benefits.

The thing is, it may be required for the surgery, but it’s not required for the spaces, and most TW claim to be women and never get the surgery. I think that’s what we’re trying to point out.

Eta- this wasn’t where I meant to put this comment

Honestly I can’t remember I had three people messaging me over three posts I got mixed up, my bad.
