As wise and cranky Dr House used to say all the time, Everybody lies to HCPs. The difference is, many trans people today take the position that lying - including lying to medical professionals - is their "human right." And that showing skepticism or outright disbelief is in the face of their lies is transphobic discrimination, violence and a hate crime.
