When Ideology Collides with Reality | Reddit Wednesdays

Welcome back to Reddit Wednesday — today we’re diving into three powerful (and painful) stories straight from Reddit:

🔹 A trans woman who insists “biological male” is a dog whistle
🔹 A 19-year-old grieving her double mastectomy at 17
🔹 A post-op trans woman who regrets her two-stage bottom surgery

I respond with nuance, compassion, and over 20 years of lived experience in the trans community. These are not easy stories to hear, but they highlight why clarity, caution, and honest discussion matter more than ever.
