The media, dominated by the heteronormative patriarchy worries about one thing, and that is generally the wants and needs of people in positions of power within our society.

But as we’ve seen in the correct, truthful media such as Vice, trans people are having their life saving surgery delayed to make way for ICU or intensive care beds in hospitals.

Trans men who are 100% real men having their breast removal surgery isn’t any less important than some Coronavirus patient is it, and there are SO many more of them than there are of trans-men, so why should they get to go first?

All this talk about “not enough respirators to keep them alive”. Oh please. Nobody talks about non-binary feminists and the trans community who have a high suicide rate constantly living in fear of their lives being ended by themselves do they?

That tells me one thing, that the medical needs of trans and non-binary people, and feminists like myself come secondary to those of the wider heterosexual community and what causes this? Well hatred of feminists like me is one thing and transphobia is another.

Why is it that MY needs come secondary to the majority?

Do you have any idea what we go through on a daily basis or how hard it is for us to even manage our money as we attend college and then try to pass our gender studies course at the same time?

We even often cut and dye each other’s hair just to save money, and I’ve worn the same glasses for two years.

It’s time we got word out there that Coronavirus isn’t more important than the wants and needs of the non-binary and abrogender communities, so it’s time to take a stand against this kind of discrimination.

A trans-man friend of mine recently was saving for “top surgery”, also known as a double mastectomy and was told that HIS insurer would pay for part of it, and now the insurer has changed it’s mind but he’d already spent the money he’d saved for it on a sleeve tattoo and some stainless steel facial piercings which are non-refundable.

This is the kind of heartbreaking circumstances we have to deal with on a day to day basis. Shame on society, shame on our so called “doctors and hospitals”, and shame on all of you!

How dare you…just…How dare you!
