Yes well I see today trans men are being taught how to chest feed,I'm all for people appreciating what others have to put up with but something done purely for "a look at me moment are plain silly"

Maybe people who need to might quietly live in a wheelchair for a week to appreciate their lack of thought might be an idea worth pursuing.

No but the same thought crossed my mind.
A trans man is still a woman so don't they have to stop their hormone meds to return to their female things like pregnancy or breast feeding? The logic defies me. If you don't want to be a woman why hanker after female activities?

I bet they did it on a nice cool day when they could rest from normal activity, avoided it while trying to sleep and knew deep in their psyche that it would be not for years. I also bet that others in their work place didn't look at them as if they were having some sort of breakdown, and almost immediately discounted their value to the company and downgraded their ability score. I wonder if being a trans man actually means that they don't suffer such problems? It would almost make the change appealing if so.

Frankly that sounds like an insult to the intelligence of women.

We are not all in the same boat. We are in the same storm. Some of us have yachts. Some of us have canoes. Some of us are drowning.
