hi~ sorry it's been a while...creative burnout is really...something else....and self-loathing can be very punishing haha...but anyways, i'm ok now...as ok as i can be haha..i'm so excited to let you guys see their progress. i really love this series :')
anyways, here's the article Shima was reading up on. i am aware that trans-medicalism is unfortunately very spiteful, but i think this article is interesting and i'm not a doctor or a researcher so i cannot prove anyone wrong. it goes into the scientific reasoning of transgenders, and i know it may be triggering to people because of the radical transmedicalists...but i love science and i love researching on things, and i think the author has good intentions in writing this article, i might be wrong i'm not really that well-versed on gender studies. sorry for the long disclaimer, i don't blame anyone if they get triggered, i do understand and empathize with the whole issue with transmedicalism... but anyways this is the article, it is really interesting and i haven't done any cross-research yet cos i'm still reading Evolution's Rainbow by Joan Roughgarden, so i can't really say any definite answer, but it is interesting
