    (side note, but it is interesting/frustrating how early society will do this to an intersex kid, but any other queer person has to wait/fight tooth and nail. Not that intersex has it easier in this way, [and from what I've heard they/you all have it worse in a lot of ways] just an aside/random thought.)

    Gender abolitionist fury

    It's actually very simple. A person that cisnormative society has assigned Male wanting to be anything else does not fit their cisnormative society, and so must be stamped out.

    A person that cisnormative society has assigned Male having an ovary in addition to "typical male" sexual anatomy is equally a blight to their cisnormative society, and so must be stamped out. This can be done most easily with invasive, non-consensual surgery to "correct" the child to fit the gender binary. What they do to intersex children is traumatic, disfiguring and they do it with glee and self-satisfaction. Having the truth of your body hidden from you for life, often without record, because some cisgender doctor decided they didn't like how you look is an actual crime of a thing to inflict upon anybody. "Easier" my fucking asshair.

    This subject makes me want to fedpost something fierce. It is illegal to say, even on the bear website, how I feel about this topic.

      It really is that simple. I hate society and what it does to marginalized groups so much.

      traumatic, disfiguring and they do it with glee and self-satisfaction

      It really, truly is.

      I can't believe they would do it without a record or even informing the parents (not saying that informing Magi's parents would have been the right or wrong call). Doing unneeded surgery on a child is already so terrible, and then not doing anything so they can ever know how they were born? Its just a whole other level on top of it. I hate how society treats children as objects parents own.

        Idk if it's better or worse when the parents know, some of them do and make the decision any-fucking-way. For their child. I sincerely despise the "your offspring are things you own" shit too, which is strong in the west but not exclusive to it.
