This is BIG. A new study in the Journal of the American Society of Plastic Surgeons, has highlighted a regret rate of only 0.3% for gender-affirming surgeries.

To put that into context, the regret rate for knee replacements is around 20% and plastic surgery can be up to 65%. Gender-affirming surgery... 0.3% 🤷

Yet MORE scientific research debunking the misinformation that's spread about the trans and gender diverse community 🎉 Read more on this research below ❤️

https://www.cnn.com/2023/01/19/us/virginia-school-shooting/index.html When school was notified the 6 yo student “might have” weapon pretty sure that call came from parent who noticed “secured” weapon was not in her purse. There is a lot more to this story. If the 6 yo had possession of a gun it was not secured. Period.
