Not Constantinople?
Thats nobody’s business but the Turks.
Been a long time gone, Constantinople
Male pattern baldness is a male/masculine trait. Working against that is not gender affirming.
Stand by your shiny domes, men
It’s a sign of too much testosterone being converted to dht and having genes that sensitize the hair on your head to it so that they fall out, which primarily happens with age and stress.
He wants to look like a young virile male rather than looking like he swallowed a couch cushion.
Gender affirming care.
Couch cushion image for reference.
He’s shaped like a cybertruck…
That’s just a very vain middle-aged man that doesn’t do any sports desperately sucking in his sizable gut.
Keep him away from jd
Idk. I feel like balding is more gender-affirming for a man.
Yeah I always cringe when I see the “hair transplants are gender affirming care” meme. It’s so embarrassing when someone on your side of the argument says something so dumb. Going bald isn’t feminine?
In this context I thought it was gender affirming as in “something that alleviates dysphoria” not as something specific to one end of the binary.
Why would going bald give a man gender dysphoria?

Why couldn’t it?

I said I spoke in general not about one specific end of the gender binary so I don’t understand why we’re restricting the subject to men.

I get what everyone is saying, but if we’re being totally honest their issue is with gender affirming care is when it’s used for the opposite gender they want to force you to maintain.
Male affirm male ok. Female affirm female ok. Male affirm female… AHHHHHHH!!! BE AFRAID!!!
Either way we’re all correct in calling them assholes that should stay the fuck out of our pursuit of happiness.
I literally heard an interview with a trans person who talked about how everyone who feels that they want to exert some effort to adjust their appearance to affirm the gender they feel is correct for them is trans. It doesn’t matter what the starting or ending point is, if you make decisions to enhance your gender expression in any way, then you’re engaging in trans behavior, and I think it’s a great point.
I mean that’s just completely incorrect though. The sentiment might be coming from a good place but it doesn’t work that way.
