Something funny is that intersex advocates point out that the opposite happens when someone diagnosed early and "corrected" rejects the coerced assignment. There's no winning.

Keeping in mind that these are cropped from old JPEGs of thumbnails of pictures taken on a phone from ~2010, look at these. I mean come on.
These other trans women with OTDSD I'm talking to have similar pictures of themselves as teens, similarly obviously androgynous.

Cis people will push for infant genital mutilation of intersex children because they don't want sex ambiguity *and* they don't want to deal with their child transitioning in *any* way later on. They'll enforce exclusive binary gender on babies born with ambiguous features.

![While ostensibly replacing the 'optimum gender of rearing' model, the 'disorders of sex development' model retained the sense that professionalized guesswork on the part of medica would remain key to avoiding disaster. As philosopher Catherine Clune-Taylor has it, just like 'optimum gender of rearing' as a managerial framework, 'DSD aims at [poster's emphasis] securing a cisgendered future for the intersex patient, referring to a normalized trajectory of development across the lifespan in which multiple sexed, gendered,](https://cdn.bsky.app/img/feed_thumbnail/plain/did:plc:74yyi6zavecey3sfvhpscuih/bafkreigzlzworuosduc2lnwbzsq4y7ipzesvw7ltr73nfjyrqftqz64ocq@jpeg)
![and sexual characteristics remain in "coherent" alignment.'
Their apparently modest gesture of ceding responsibility to families concealed an underlying continuity in the medics' aims. From the 2000s, the guiding priority would be to establish an outcome that prevented genital ambiguity where possible and [poster's emphasis] averted later transition between male and female. Medical authority would thus undergo an ostensible modernisation, without any basic principle being abandoned.](https://cdn.bsky.app/img/feed_thumbnail/plain/did:plc:74yyi6zavecey3sfvhpscuih/bafkreibr5johczf7r5oyvehq2edrvlltuk4sqkj6zl4afztzbng22bnnpa@jpeg)

Hey all, I'm trying to help a trans woman who's been through some serious medical abuse get re-established in Los Angeles- currently she needs some emergency funds to get into a hotel. She's given me the OK to share her Venmo, she needs ~$150 more to stay somewhere for a few days and stabilize.

I don't know, here's a bit more context from that passage. She's talking about *legal precedent* there, and we know how the law views sex. It also effectively argues that the *legal* right to transition doesn't depend on legal forms or medical certification. It's definitely sloppy wording.

I can *kinda* see towards the end that she's motioning for a materialist politics for the trans community rather than following idealist (in the philosophical sense) leaders in academia, like she diverges from talking about SCOTUS a bit in the conclusion (literally the last three sentences)

I'd be closer to Ladies Man if 1) I was a man 2) I didn't have the whole transfem desirability self-doubt thing and the "openly desiring anyone in any way is actually predatory" thing going on

This bit right here, I actually do kinda miss having someone who isn't me to talk to about the things only we would know about! They're all still here, in a way, but in the dialectical sense of sublation- no longer independent, but instead, aspects or divisions of the new, many-sided whole.

Apparently this is the origin for "taking the piss", while "pissed off" is American military slang from WWII.
