Hormones for Cis People vs Trans and Intersex People: The Awful Double Standard

(Content Warning: Transphobia and cissexist language)

Have you ever talked to a doctor about your hormones?

The way your doctor talked to you probably depended on if you’re cisgender (the gender you were assigned at birth) or not. For people who are trans and intersex, there’s often an awful story.

This comic makes doctors’ biases so clear – check out what medical professionals are really saying when they treat people differently depending on gender.
