vxpo:
Just filled out my health insurance forms!
yeah!!! fucking around with health insurance forms!!!!
I hate when people complain about “oh health forms are stupid they want my biological sex instead of my gender!!!!” or “they only have male or female!!!”
There’s a reason for that, they’re referring to biological sex
Different health risks are present in different sexes, and whatever gender is in your head does not change the fact that if you were born female, you have a higher risk for certain cancers and osteoporosis, and if you were born male you have a higher risk for heart disease and often a shorter lifespan than a female.
In other words, your biological sex is an important factor in health and health insurance, and that’s why only male and female are available.
There’s too many genderqueer teens on here that are gonna get themselves seriously hurt or sick. Lemme tell you a thing. Doctors don’t really give a fuck what you identify as. All they want to know is do you have two X chromosomes or an XY? Because cancer and lupus and certain medicines don’t give a fuck what pronouns you use. This is about your LIFE. Remember this, because when you’re in an ambulance or going into cardiac arrest or whatever the situation may be, it’s ESSENTIAL that you tell them your BIOLOGICAL SEX that you were BORN WITH. It literally may save your life.
This is so important.
