That's what they're supposed to be but there just aren't that many Ted Kaczynskis out there. People end up in Supermax in some cases for absolutely ridiculous reasons like some series of small disciplinary violations, which can include being punished because you got attacked yourself. They have to justify the existence of these really expensive facilities so it isn't just wall to wall Mansons.

Ladiez, ladies. You're all a bunch of faggots. This typical tranny behavior. They're so so so insecure, they have to try and eliminate anyone or anything that exposes them as cock hungry faggots.

Trannies can't get their life-saving hormones, trannies are literally dying everywhere.

Callie has always used a mixture of official and unofficial sources to access her hormones because of the legal grey area some of her medications exist in.
"I take finasteride and estradiol, both of which are prescribed by a UK doctor with GenderGP, a private trans healthcare service," Callie told Insider. "However, I also take progesterone, which I obtain from the grey market because it cannot be prescribed in the UK but has been very beneficial to me."

Just to understand, progesterone probably gives trannies cancer but these crazy faggots just talk about this stuff like it's literal Skittles.

Soon, Callie may have to turn fully to grey-market sources because she has been unable to get an appointment with her doctor for another hormone prescription.
"I'm running out very soon and so far my doctor hasn't responded to communication, so potentially very soon I might be turning to unofficial channels," Callie said.
Dear Abbie, My drug dealer isn't answering her email, what should I do?
Maybe next week we'll hear from those who get butt injections from back street 'doctors' about how covid-19 is affecting them? 'Having a huge butt is vitally important to the mental health of many but with coronavirus blah blah blah suicide online blah'

People are sharing hormones on Google Docs and turning to 'grey market' pharmacies to get gender-affirming care during the pandemic
Transgender and nonbinary people are turning to friends, community Facebook pages, and "grey market" pharmacies to find hormones during the pandemic.
www.insider.com
Evelyn was growing nervous as she watched her supply of spironolactone dwindle while the city of Boston, where she lives, started its coronavirus lockdown in mid-March.
Evelyn, 21, takes spiro as part of her hormone-replacement therapy to treat gender dysphoria, which happens when a person feels their body doesn't match their gender identity. She's had a steady routine since starting on hormones last September; every three months she goes to Planned Parenthood for a checkup and a new prescription.
But by March 15 she was getting increasingly anxious. She's found it hard to find a good doctor who treats transgender patients, let alone one accustomed to video visits.
Evelyn started to worry about withdrawal symptoms from her HRT, like fat redistribution, hair growth, and mood swings.
A week and a half after lockdown, she was out of spiro and, with her appointments cancelled indefinitely, she had no idea when she would next be able to fill her prescription.
"It was rough," Evelyn said. "It's always anxiety-inducing to run out of a medication that you know has very significant effects on your body."
With few options and no time, Evelyn turned to a friend for help.
Her friend had an access supply of spironolactone she was willing to part with. It was expired and a lower dosage but Evelyn said she could make it work until she could schedule an appointment with her doctor.
"It's a beggars-can't-be-choosers thing right now," Evelyn said. "I'll take what I can get."
Evelyn was eventually able to schedule a video appointment four days later with her doctor, who wired her hormone prescription to her pharmacy. But for many transgender and nonbinary people, unofficial pathways to obtaining hormones like friends, community social-media pages, and unregulated grey-market pharmacies have become the only options during the pandemic.
The coronavirus has spurred the creation of hormone-sharing lists
Since the lockdowns came into effect across the US, mutual-aid networks for queer and transgender people have popped up, including grocery delivery and resources for people with lost incomes.
Among them are efforts geared toward redistributing hormones and needles to those in need, including hormone-sharing Google Docs, and grey-market pharmacies, which buy and sell unregulated hormones.
The Google Docs are particularly useful for finding testosterone solution, which is tightly regulated and expensive, and clean needles, which aren't so easy to buy, and can be pricey too.
Testosterone can cost between $40 and $90 for a two-month supply (a 10 ml bottle of 200 mg/ml solution) without insurance. The expenses quickly add up when you consider the costs of gender-affirming clothing like binders (upwards of $35), prosthetics (hundreds of dollars), and syringes to administer the testosterone, which can cost between $15 and $20 for a 100-count box depending on the supplier.
Free needle exchanges exist, but the pandemic has caused many to shutter. If people opt for AndroGel, the topical form of testosterone, a month's supply can cost between $30 and $80 without insurance.
People further along in their transition may not need to take hormones as regularly, so some are sharing their excess
Syd, a 23-year-old living in Berkeley, California, was browsing through lists of queer coronavirus mutual-aid pages when they stumbled upon an anonymous two-page Google spreadsheet titled "HORMONE SHARE." One page of the sheet is for people to list the specific hormones or equipment they need; the other is for people to list items they have to share.
Syd felt compelled to put their information on the list because they had an excess supply of "T" (testosterone) to share.
Syd, who uses they/them pronouns, has gotten to a point in their transition where they don't take testosterone as regularly as they did when they started on HRT a few years ago. Their body has gone through the physical changes they wanted. Rather than taking their prescribed .5 mL every week, Syd takes .5mL about every two weeks to maintain the physical changes.
"I don't really need it that much, and someone else can use this. I can't get the intended effect that I want from hormones, and I also just really hate injections," Syd told Insider. "For the time being I assume I'm still going to be able to get in touch with my doctor, so it won't be an issue for me."
A few days after posting on the spreadsheet, Syd got an email from an unfamiliar address. The sender said he'd seen their listing and was in need of testosterone because his usual HRT clinic in Philadelphia was not responding to phone calls. The sender was scared that he'd start to see side effects from being off HRT too long, like the return of his period.
Breaking a nervous sweat while walking to the post office, Syd wondered about the legal consequences of shipping hormones across the country, and what they would say if post office workers asked about the contents of their padded envelope.
Sharing hormones and needles is a legal grey area
Most testosterone medications are classified as steroids under the Controlled Substances Act and the Anabolic Steroid Control Act of 1990, so they are illegal to sell over the counter. But handing out hormones for free, though not recommended by doctors, doesn't break any laws.
It is not illegal to share needles if there is no reason to believe that they would be used to inject illicit drugs.
According to Harper Jean Tobin, Director of Policy for the National Center for Transgender Equality, while people should not take medications that aren't prescribed to them, hormone exchanges and grey-market pharmacies aren't new.
"We strongly recommend that people should only take medications prescribed by their doctor, at the dosages prescribed," Tobin told Insider. "But like anyone else with regular prescriptions, it's not unheard of for roommates, friends, or partners on the same medication to trade a few doses until they can get to the pharmacy again."
Syd felt compelled to share their hormones because of the deep impact dysphoria can have on the mental health of transgender and nonbinary people. Studies have linked dysphoria to depression and anxiety and significantly increased risks of substance abuse and suicide.
"A lot of people who don't have dysphoria may not see it as essential, but I know that, for some people, it really makes them feel a lot more OK existing in their body," Syd said. "For some people it really is necessary to be taking it all the time. If they miss it, it can mean certain things can start to come back like menstruation, or facial hair growth, fat redistribution."
Some have turned to grey-market pharmacies where people can buy hormones
Estradiol and spironolactone, HRT medications typically used by transgender and nonbinary people assigned male at birth, can legally be sold online.
While they can be found on list-shares, people also can buy them online via a network of grey-market pharmacies, shipping medication that is not illegal to sell, but medical professionals would not recommend taking it without a doctor's approval.
That's what Callie, a 24-year-old in the United Kingdom, uses to get progesterone — a hormone that can stimulate breast development and decrease testosterone production in people assigned male at birth.
Callie has always used a mixture of official and unofficial sources to access her hormones because of the legal grey area some of her medications exist in.
"I take finasteride and estradiol, both of which are prescribed by a UK doctor with GenderGP, a private trans healthcare service," Callie told Insider. "However, I also take progesterone, which I obtain from the grey market because it cannot be prescribed in the UK but has been very beneficial to me."
These markets carry clear risks — it's not as clear where your medication has come from — but they are generally more reliable and cheaper than official channels. There's also a tight-knit community of people on Twitter and subreddit /r/TransDIY who discuss the safest ways to get DIY HRT, and which online pharmacies have worked for them.
A 5 ml bottle of depo-estradiol, an injectable hormone, costs upwards of $120 for a two-month supply. There is a generic version, estradiol cypionate, which costs between $40 and $100 for the same amount, but it needs to be taken more often, so runs out quicker, and there are often shortages.
Soon, Callie may have to turn fully to grey-market sources because she has been unable to get an appointment with her doctor for another hormone prescription.
"I'm running out very soon and so far my doctor hasn't responded to communication, so potentially very soon I might be turning to unofficial channels," Callie said.
These unofficial channels have existed for years to help trans and nonbinary people get around red tape
The pandemic has made hormone and needle sharing more visible, but it isn't new.
Access to gender-affirming care — whether it's surgery or access to medication — has never been an easy proposition for transgender and nonbinary people.
Medical insurance companies refused to cover gender-affirming care for decades and many primary-care physicians were unwilling to provide HRT, a medication also prescribed for menopause, to transgender and nonbinary patients because medical guidelines had not changed to include them.
Until 2017, "gender identity disorder" was categorized as a mental disorder in the American Psychiatric Association's Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders. And it wasn't until 2018 that the World Health Organization removed "transsexualism" the International Classification of Diseases — a move that, the WHO conceded, would allow for better "access to necessary health interventions."
Still, access to gender-affirming care like HRT through official channels like a primary-care provider is fairly new, and therefore challenging. The pandemic has brought in even more obstacles.
The pandemic may force more people to rely on hormone trading and grey markets
Job losses, delayed paychecks, and loss of health insurance have stripped many transgender and nonbinary people of their access to HRT, or their means to pay the full cost or the co-pay, which can range from $10 to $85 a month, on average.
Evelyn, the 21-year-old from Boston, still has access to hormones through her insurance, but she's still concerned about how she will continue to afford the co-pay for her HRT prescriptions without income. Like many Americans, she lost her job because of the economic downturn caused by the pandemic.
"The big financial problem is I don't have income anymore and I'm sure a lot of people don't have income anymore," Evelyn said. "Even if costs don't change, I'm working with less and less total funds as time goes on."

Apparently trannies believe that progesterone will give them larger nipples. I have no idea if that's true, but I'll laugh my ass off if it isn't. It's also common for them to go to the grey market to buy even more estradiol, because if the estradiol prescribed by their doctor is good, more must be even better. Meanwhile, synthetic estrogen can cause blood clots and cancer.
I wish I had screencapped it, but I saw some dumbass on Twitter complaining about a medical study showing that trannies hurt themselves by self-medicating. Obviously the researchers who conducted the study need to realize that trannies only do that because muh oppreshun and not because they're a bunch of delusional morons.

Progesterone serves a similar function to testosterone in increasing personal drive, including sex drive. Dunno about the nipple thing.

Actually, I had zero thoughts about surrogacy until I learned that it is a huge vehicle for rich assholes to rent a womb from young desperate women who need money. And that women who often do multiple surrogacy die from pregnancy and birth related issues due to the strain. I think it's pretty iffy on the whole. Especially in the case of what is essentially a heterosexual couple renting the womb of someone else because they've chosen to castrate themselves. And now get to act like the woman who did all the work is some faceless nameless thing that just pushed out a baby for them.
Children aren't a basic right.

I think this is why doctors in the UK at least are getting nervous of dealing with trannies. Say a GP prescribes hormones (which they can now do) to a tranny. The said tranny takes the hormones, but then starts circling someone on social media (like Adrian Harrop) who tells him there are a load more pharmaceutical goodies out there, that will magically turn him into a woman.
The said Tranny goes finds a source of these other drugs, and proceeds to take them alongside his legit prescription. Now because he's mentally ill and probably leading a chaotic lifestyle, he takes all this medication really erratically, forgets some days, then double doses other days to make up for it. Mixes it with booze recreational drugs, or like our favorite KF tranny lurker psychedelics.
Fast forward a few years where he's riddled with cancer, who's he going to sue? It's not going to be GenderGP in Spain, or whatever dodgy mail order company he got the dodgy drugs from. It's going to be the GP that was daft enough to try and enable him in the first place.

That's essentially what they think. Last year they stated in an interview that they want to change the UK law on surrogacy and make it impossible for the surrogacy mother to change her mind at any point during the pregnancy. http://archive.is/wip/e4Cd8

the more i think about it the more i think gestational surrogacy should just be outlawed entirely tbh
something about using sophisticated medical procedures to make a woman carry and give birth to another womans child is really unsettling to me. the whole thing is so unnatural and vile, it's like a weird form of science-enabled high tech female cuckoldry.

When you put it that way I guess I can see why people have a problem with it and has sort of put me on the fence with surrogacy. I just think that a baby being raised by 2 delusional mentally ill people being the dire issue at hand.

Just wait until they can transplant a uterus into a troon. Even if it served no function poor nameless women would "donate" theirs in solidarity with these nu-women.
I have a feeling that abortion would be punishable and pro-choice people will line up to defend it.

Being able to have kids, choosing to have your ability to have kids taken away from you via elective surgery, and then making someone else have a kid for you is literally the most privileged thing I can imagine.
Like imagine if some hacked their legs off and then paid someone else to run a marathon so they could have a medal.

The articles would be more along the lines of "A ciswoman is refusing to donate her uterus to me so that I could be my authentic self" and "The medical community is refusing to transplant uteruses in transwomen so that they can be their authentic selves".

Outlawing surrogacy entirely would be better than this bullshit. Tough shit for sterile couples. It is better than literal fucking slavery.
