I mean honestly, there is no procedure to give someone "female parts", all they can do is cut a hole of varying depth.

That’s why I made sure to say “female like parts”. It’s not the same thing, it’s just trying to mimic it. I feel like you may be simplifying a little though.

I've been on hrt for over 2 years now, and honestly, I like it a lot better.

2 years is a really short time when you look at your whole life. Life is long even though people say it’s not. If you have surgery, you removing your bodies ability to produce adequate hormones to maintain health. It shouldn’t be taken lightly.

Transition care for trans patients leads to a marked decrease in rates of depression, so why shouldn't it be covered by medical insurance in the same way other depression treatments are?

I don’t think other treatments for depression harm healthy bodies in the way that genital surgeries or mastectomies do. Plus, a lot of people disagree with it any I don’t think it’s fair or helps trans people gain acceptance to make them participate. I had to wait longer than I wanted so I could save money to pay for mine. I also feel like it might help with regret (which is significant).
