That's unnecessarily hostile. Are they preventing medical professionals from working with their patients with this question?

They even apologized for being wrong and fact checked themselves. That to me shows someone who's talking about things in good faith.

As someone who also would like to learn how to advise a potential kid in the future, I'd hope I can ask questions in good faith without getting chewed out.

The top level comment burned all of the good faith I'm willing to extend that user. I'm done dealing with people who are "just asking questions", or "have weird feelings" while half the states in my country are trying to outlaw my existence.

You do you in terms of how much patience you're willing to lend folks. You're under no obligation to explain things for the umpteenth time, feeling the need to justify your life. It sucks.

However I will point out that the person willing to fact check themselves for misunderstanding hormone therapy is (probably) not the person who's trying to outlaw your existence.

Quick dig through their comments they are also pushing border conspiracies, so they probably are that kind of person.

Oof. Maybe the person who, if discussing in good faith, needs to hear it the most, but defending your existence when you're just chilling online is not the business. May you have a good, meme-filled day.

Thanks, you have a good day also.
