Derp refers to physical and mentally challenged people and acting 'retarded'. The origin is not necessarily that, but the memes definitely follow that trend.

Gender dysphoria is considered a mental disorder. You've spent this entire thread insisting that transfolk do not have the right to have their transition covered by insurance or public healthcare because it's not what you consider medical necessity

woops that last sentence wasn't meant for our conversation.

Transphobia? Where have I suggested that I am phobic of transgendered people?

You suggested that preventative care like this is something you would not be in favor of being covered by insurance

[www.aussiebum.com] , I've converted some of my male friends over to their swimsuits :)

Fair enough, from your description you have definitely seen it!!

From what I understand the Monkey Rocker is quite good at simulating mfms :)

I never said frivolous, there is no need to be so aggressive. I said not medically necessary to be a woman. I was just as much a woman before I got my breast implants as I was before, but I decided it would make me feel better with my body so I contacted care credit, got a loan and had the procedure done. Could I…

and only, apparently

I was 90% done writing a response to your post, and then...

I take it you haven't watched the scene. Here obvious enthusiasm beforehand and visible satisfaction afterwards is quite adorable and endearing.

Name calling, really??

So you would rather waste billions of dollars and lives letting people get horrible diseases and then trying to heal them, rather than preventing the problem in the first place?

some women do opt to undergo double-mastectomies

Why do you think that is?

...you a woman who is unfortunate enough to be born without breasts...

I am not saying that at all. I am saying that breasts are not a requirement to be a woman, and if a woman (trans or cis) wants a pair they can go ahead and get them, as I said they are not cost prohibitive.

I didn't put it that way, other people that replied to me put it that way. I also clearly stated that having breasts does not equal being a woman, as there are many women out there with zero breasts, should these women be granted breast implants?

I thought I was clear enough in saying there is a difference between an accident/illness and preference. Yes I do think it should be covered, just like reconstructive facial surgery should be covered if one is in a car accident, but nose jobs should not be covered to fit in.
