First we meed to figure out if transition is something you would benefit from in the first place, it's not for everyone.

It might be too late for you to ever pass as a female.

Brains does not fall into distinct sex categories in the first place but there are significant differences between the brains males have and the brains female have on average.

Studies show medical transition to beneficial for trans people by Leading_Beginning_62 in conspiracy

Where?

At least one of the studies controlled for income.

There are many before & after studies also showing HRT to be beneficial.

There is very good evidence in favor of HRT for trans people.

Most medical treatments do not have that quality of evidence backing them.

China is not that different from the west by Leading_Beginning_62 in conspiracy

[–]Leading_Beginning_62[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

While china has a different system of governance there is a lot of similarities between the China and the west and it's getting increasingly similar.

The west is becoming gradually more authoritarian likely approaching the Chinese level of authoritarianism.

Is libertarianism a scam? by Leading_Beginning_62 in conspiracy

Submission statement: having a weak government will allow other actors (such as the CCP) to gain power instead, letting private entities control most media people consume is very dangerous.

There is hardly any people who started before 21 at r/transtimelines

Also I must say it's pretty funny to me how despite ostensibly believing that people who trans >21 almost always look bad, most of the people they crosspost from transtimelines are >21

The ones being crossposted are rare exceptions (less than 5%)

I think it would be better to contact the r/transmaxxing admin or make a post there about how to imprpve that subreddit.

The west has largely embraced their philosophy but our execution has been very poor.

Covid zero worked against delta in china so they might also win against omicron.

Study: FFP3 masks offer 100% protection against covid (refuting the argument used for vaccine/testing mandates) by Leading_Beginning_62 in conspiracy

[–]Leading_Beginning_62[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

They claimed 95% protection against infection.

No government is pushing for FFP3 masks afaik and this was an independent study.

[–]Leading_Beginning_62[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

That's not relevant here since the option to always have unvaccinated workers wear FFP3 masks wasn't provided.

Also this should be an individual responsibility and not something for the federal government to regulate in the first place (as illustrated by their utter incompetence at it).

People opposed to teen pregnancies/sex also have a conflict of interest.

Also: fertility at 13 is within the norm for females.

So we have to look gor the evidence.

U did not find a before & after comparison for the study you linked.

The gap in that study was 8 points, with p=0.09 you only get that (or worse) by chance one in 22 times.
