Bit behind, but I see we're back to Ripley's fun at UCSF, so let me supply some info/background. (Though: Of course Ripley got misgendered there. He's not an inanimate object. Whatt Ripley's leaving out? The people misgendering him were...ah...brown...and very definitely not American-born.)
Looks like the docs involved in Ripley's many surgeries swapped stories and realized he had a fit everywhere he went, no matter how "accommodating" they tried to be. "Discharging" himself and sneaking in meds probably put a bright red flag on his file. He even signed the slip allowing them to share his records, and the first thing they probably included was all the times he thrashed around with the gas and made a nuisance of himself and continued patterns of being awful to staffers and nurses. So this Helen Wittenberg's practice had already seen him refuse to answer questions and got the greenlight to dump him.
I love how Kevin's requirements to begin dating is [sees them]. That's it.
The docs in Ripley's many surgeries
definitely swapped stories. Not only that, but he
definitely had flags in his file which
every single person would have seen.
The person taking notes is, most likely, either a resident being trained, a PA, or a medical scribe. The medical scribe makes minimum wage and is
not paid enough for this. The resident or PA will be likely handling parts of Ripley'ss care directly, especially if his surgeon's retiring.
Also, since I got his intersex story's details now: One of the
huge tells that he's lying is his story about being intersex, detected and assigned
male at birth. This is going to get a bit horrific, but... The first thing to keep in mind is that...to quote the docs this info got gathered from? It's easier to make a pole than a hole. When they
do surgically assign a sex to an infant at birth? There's an amhole installation. (Because the doc judges the kid's peepee to be too small and missed the debunking of Dr. Money's study that claimed you can just troon out a baby if the peepee isn't 'acceptable' and the kid's gonna be juuuust fine--that sex is
completely learned. Dr. Money's study included
lots of covering up that the kid he was forcing to troon out was Not Okay with this, and fucked-up shit like wanting forced twincest kiddy sexy funteims as...part of socializing the trooned out son as a girl. ...that is documented, if you're wondering. Fucking
pedo.) Somebody who's AMAB and intersex is typically diagnosed later when things go off the rails. We've also--for possibly obvious reasons--moved towards waiting a bit to do any surgical alterations, because basically you can render it so much decorative meat super-easy when it's small. So, um, on why people might very validly worry about the kid's ability to come when older?
It comes from pervs transing out people
without their consent, and leaving them with entirely decorative genitalia. But as I've said before and will say again, troons don't understand consent. None of Tumblrinas or their Twitter diaspora understand consent.
Honestly, it's probably easier to list what they
do understand than what they don't really understand. ...wait, no, you're probably going to be accurate enough if you just go with 'everything.'
