RE: The NHS says trans women should breastfeed babies. This is unforgivable. | The Spectator

( Re-enacterf )

I have some sympathy for these poor men. They’re driven mad by hormones and the mental strain of trying to believe they’re female. The people I have no sympathy for – only cold, vengeful loathing – are the activist medics of the NHS: doctors who have sworn to do no harm and should care for babies before all others, but who instead choose to prioritise the feelings of cross-dressing men.

I'm so glad to see this topic covered critically that I hate to quibble, but no. No sympathy for these men. They are pedophiles and they were mad before the estrogen. I understand the buck stops with the doctors, but these TIMs are no good.

Exactly. “Driven mad by hormones”? They weren’t force fed, they demanded estrogen that doesn’t belong in their bodies. They stole HRT from women in actual need of those hormones, created a new stigma around the use of HRT, bullied nurses and doctors, destroyed the medical community in general, tainted countless studies and data, and demanded tax payer money fund it all because their depression boner makes them unable to work. It’s entirely their doing and they aren’t victims, they are literally demanding it.

I think the person is saying that TIMs like this are traumatised by gender roles and so desperate to escape them through transitioning, which fucks with their heads even further by making them even more obsesses over maintaining a lie, while also suffering the effects of an artificially maintained hormonal imbalance. But yeah, when you start claiming your moob secretions are better at feeding babies, you are way past just being misguided.

You also can't go crazy from a hormonal imbalance. It will fuck with your emotional stability and can produce various issues, but these guys are already fueled by perceiving women as costumes and wanting to beat them at their own game. The emotional instability only makes them more unhinged, but it doesn't turn them into raging misogynists, they already were that coming it. Because they're men.
