Yet another form of GENOCIDE identified. In Japan this time, but it's happening all over.
Yes, GENOCIDE. In Japan. Again.

Emphasis added.I’m Japanese, and I live in Japan. Here, nothing trans related is covered by insurance. Not even HRT.
And this country treats non-passing trans women like freaks.
If you don’t pass, nobody will treat you seriously as a woman and nobody will hire you.
Some of us need FFS to pass, so the fact that it’s so inaccessible here essentially is genocidal.
They’re essentially paywalling human rights for people like me.
I either continue to exist as a man (which to me is to live as a zombie), I socially transition despite looking like a man and I suffer social/financial death, or I just end my own life.
Either way, it’s death.

More on the subject further down. LITERALLY!Also the fact bottom surgery isn't covered by insurance but you need it to legally transition is horrible
And in Singapore.The fact that you need bottom surgery in the first place to legally transition is literally genocide.
SRS prevents you from having children. This is a cost we often have to pay, when choosing to have it. And many of us, including me, would rather adopt children than have our own.
But being forced to have SRS to transition, no matter if you it want or not, is involuntary sterilization of a social group. And that is literally one of the acts defining a genocide, as it has the goal of eradicating said group (by preventing them to have children or forcing them to endure the mental torture of not transitioning, Article 2 d) and 2 b) of the genocide convention).
The reasons why it isn’t called a genocide are: 1) bullshit legal reasons (we are no ethnic, racial, religious or national group, which is currently required. But don’t worry, genocide scholars are literally currently debating the definition of genocide, because they view how many countries treat trans* people, especially the US, as genocidal); And 2) transphobia, cuz most people still think it is a choice to be trans* or that the medical care we need are cosmetic procedures or just openly deny we exist (last one can be called complicity in the genocide)
Here's one that mentions the USA followed by lots of replies suggesting where in the USA is best.Singaporean here, nothing is covered by insurance. On top of that AMAB’s have mandatory military service so that’s fun too, nothing beats ruining your body like military training.
But we make do, I pay close to 1k usd every 3-4 months for my HRT and I just paid for my orchi out of pocket as well.
It might take longer but eventually we will get there! Don’t give up!!
Whole thread full of LuLz if you have the time.Hey fellow trans woman in Japan. It’s rough. I’m actually going back to the US. Obviously not great there, but some states are good and at least I can make friends who support me and take me seriously
