It's the same thing as people who do self harm and cut. It isn't because they want attention, they do it because it's a silent cry for help, and that they're going through something.

thank you for commenting - you're right, that is another example of a common misconception in mental health

[@jesipohl6717]

Hadley Freeman encourages hate and fear of trans people.
Now we know why, she hates her own body.
What a simple person.

Thank u ❤it was very interesting to listen to

[@Welldoing]

thank you for sharing your thoughts - we're glad it was interesting for you :)

[@jesipohl6717]

It was honestly jarring to watch this transphobe winge about her own body while hating on others' for being trans.
Boohoo Hadley

She keeps generalizing. I didn't want to look ill and I was Anorexic.

[@jesipohl6717]

TERFs are very familiar with generalising statements.

hello, in our time, religions are presented as if they are just words, but the 4 great books, the Bible, the Torah, the Psalms and the Qur'an, these are great books, they all guide humanity, all of the prophets are examples. patience, people cannot find peace with material things, they should learn and live their religion. I have to think that it will help me, sometimes a smiling face, a nice word, a little help makes people feel comfortable. Islam attaches great importance to helping.
