There's nothing people won't do for money, but this is right up there on the list of 'most fucked up ways to make money'.

This gets more and more scary & horrific. We know the damage steroid abuse does, this will be even worse. No doubt the gender re-assignment surgeries now in vogue will become the body-shocker-surgery-gone-wrong reality TV programmes of the near future. You can think if people want to carve themselves up like this then let them, but so many will be young, ill-informed and ill-advised. So sad the media won't even discuss what's going on.

Thanks for the Savage Minds heads-up, Mr Linehan 👍 I'm getting an education for $5 a month 😀

Remind me what university costs these days? 😜

Much respect for your stellar work too for what essentially costs buttons in relative terms 👊

How anyone isn't a paid subscriber for 5 nicker a month is beyond me 😕

Follow the money. This blot on humanity is all about cold hard cash. It’s all about locking vulnerable people into a cycle of cash hungry esteem poor head f**ks. It’s mental and physical abuse in plain sight and the sheep applaud it saying facile junk which is merely virtue signalling. If these woke loons really cared they’d be looking for answers not revelling in this pandering guff.

Happy Friday everyone.

Absolutely. It’s allllllll about the money. Corporations are driven by the bottom line and they’ve opened up a lucrative stream of repeat business.

"FOLX Health". It's impossible to parody these people.

But this is truly vile. Normalising doping with testosterone for mostly young lesbians and bi women is disgusting. I wish I could be more articulate in response but ... fuuuuuuuuck.

They are drug pushers. Nothing less, nothing more. Out and out Drug pushers, grooming the next generation of drug addicted people who will do whatever they can to get their next "high".

And the politicians, the businesses, the charities, society are turning a blind eye.

As usual.

Microdosing testosterone isn't actually new though - I used to date a woman in the 90s who did it. She was all about being muscular /angular/hard edged.

Back in the day, as this article suggests, it was almost regarded like a club drug. It is that which makes it feel incongruous to me that it is being marketed as a health care product.

Almost as if the drugs that are so popular in the gay chemsex subculture were being sold by Pfizer.

Agressive marketing of trans stuff to lesbians is everywhere. Go on to Amazon and Google, like any nervous teenager testing out her identity might, "lesbian clothes." The first page is half binders.

Even if you want to get old school dykey sex toys, you have to Google tpys for trans men-they just aren't marketed to lesbians any more.

It is just so utterly depressing.

Oh, and if some of those lesbian and bi women aspire to be athletes but get sucked into this? Bye bye sporting career...because ya doping. Another way to push lesbians out of the public sphere.

The only subset of people actively excluded from sporting competition in the genderwoo era? Trans- and NB-identifying females. They're unlikely to be good enough to compete with the men and if they're on T they will be banned from women's competition for taking performance enhancers. Nothing is preventing the trans-identifying men and boys from competing in their sex class, yet the media and activist focus is on the non-existent banning of "trans girls". Gee, wonder why that could be?
