The first person I knew to do this was a friend in high school, after coming out to her parents. It went badly. She moved out. “I’ll talk to them when it’s easier to talk to them than it is to not talk to them.” I don’t know if she ever did. That was 1984. This is an old queer “tradition.”

I have very mixed feelings about posting this. Firstly bc disclosing on main is not the most well-adjusted way to process something that I was numb to at the and that did not shock me even one little bit. Also, because it’s so easy to imagine this kind of care is an exception. It is not.

Medical coercion — sexual or otherwise — happens wherever care is criminalized or withheld. It is mundane and shitty and it doesn’t just happen to trans people, although I think the sexualization that goes with transmisogynist gate-keeping is also its own thing.
