  • Well yeah. It's openly critical of the sexual function of people who have had those proceedures. The trans community as a whole are often depicted as mutilated and less functional by transphobes or people who want to devalue them as valid romantic options. Since access to those medical services are actively under fire that critique isn't value neutral and it isn't in the context of what unaltered sexual function is like for people with dysphoria whom often register a marked improvement in overall function from getting over the mental blocks.

    The people I know who have had surgeries have been quite happy with the outcome. While it's true the surgery options regarding bottom surgery for trans men require one to make some decisions about what functions to focus on, framing them as ugly and "barely functional" is insulting. Think about what it would be like to hear someone else critique the choices you've made that have improved your life experiences in a way that frames you as deficient and devalued.

    Edit : During this comment chain this guy has self identified as a cis man - so to summerize, this is a random guy saying a set of surgeries and care plan created to address body issues he does not experience is not something he would choose because they are subpar. Yup. Real valid opinion right there. Totally not a smokescreen for anything nasty. /s

    Please don't fall for this dreck.
