I got the runaround too at first and just immediately went grey market. Then later, telling the next doc I was gonna do it with or without them (and in fact already was) seemed to get them off their asses.

I’m also very tired of having to spend SO MUCH time and energy on something that ought to be largely irrelevant to my life, I totally feel that. However, there is one thing that makes me feel a lot better about it. I imagine what I might have been like, as a person, if I didn’t have any kind of marginalized identity.
If I wasn’t like this, my entire worldview would likely have been developed from a fairly privileged position. I would never have experienced this struggle. And while the trans struggle is not identical to the struggles of other marginalized people, it definitely hits a lot of the same notes. So I feel like it has definitely broadened my understanding of other people’s plights, to the point where I don’t think I’d wanna give that up in exchange for being cis. I feel like that me might’ve ended up more of an asshole, you know?

I don’t think I’d recommend the first one, but the second one is maybe ok? Think that’s what Peter Wessel Zapffe called “sublimation” and it’s probabblllyyy healthy-ish.
Ooooh you’ve reminded me that i never found out if it ever officially ended or not! They were on hiatus when I first read it through long ago. Great comic
