Biden Administration Opposes Surgery for Transgender Minors
  • I've heard people (admittedly only online) advocating for surgery for trans minors, the main argument being that puberty has such a big impact that an earlier surgery often means a much more effective result.

    (This is just from memory, I might be getting stuff wrong)

  • Europeans of Lemmy, what places in Europe should foreigners avoid at all cost?
  • This happens in a lot of countries. For me I noticed it particularly with young people in Germany, and pretty much anyone in Norway.

    Can make it slightly frustrating when actively trying to learn the language by speaking with people 😅

  • Europeans of Lemmy, what places in Europe should foreigners avoid at all cost?
  • As a counter example, I managed to make friends with a Swiss person while elsewhere in Europe, and then later in my travels got to visit them in Switzerland for a few days. My time there was truly one of the most breathtaking and memorable experiences of my trip.

    Maybe it's expensive, maybe Europeans are "cold" personality wise, but God damn they have got some incredible scenery.

  • Vegans of Lemmy, would you eat lab-grown meat?
  • I've been vegetarian my whole life and vegan for ~4 years or so, and I would definitely eat lab grown meat (assuming the conditions you stated).

    I almost certainly wouldn't eat it often but there is sooo many cultural dishes I haven't ever tried due to them containing meat, which I would love to try sometime.

    Admittedly I expect that most things I would not end up liking, but the ability to try would be really nice.

  • What LGBTQ+ topic you wish more people knew about?
  • To be honest, it comes across as bad communication to me. If you mean "some people" or even "some cis people", then why not say that? The way you say it sounds like all, or almost all cis people don't understand, which I think is presumptuous and untrue. Pretty much every cis person I know would understand those to be gender affirming care. Just because some people (especially those in power) don't seem to understand that doesn't justify making it a generalisation.

    Thats probably not how you meant it, I just want to point out how it comes across to at least some people, which might imply it isn't the best communication.
