| Topic | Why is taking steroids frowned upon when transgender operations are normal? |
| the_rowan 05/06/17 10:29:25 PM #8: | Are you talking about transgender people (both MtF and FtM) competing against women with no handicap, where they can win easily with their higher testosterone levels? Or just making the really dumb comparison of using testosterone illegally to cheat in a sport versus using it for medical purposes? Because the former IS looked down upon in general, even though the whole system hasn't really been worked out yet, while the latter is nonsense. Okay, you clarified: you're making a completely asinine argument by intentionally playing dumb. So this whole topic is pointless. No, you can't just "do whatever you want" with your body when it involves a controlled prescription-only substance like testosterone or even legend Rx (schedule VI) substances like finasteride. You need a legitimate medical diagnosis which is a hell of a different beast from just deciding one day that you're gonna tell people you're transgender. Stop wasting everyone's time. --- "That is why war is so tragic. To win means to make victims of your opponents and give birth to hatred." - Kratos Aurion, Tales of Symphonia ...
