Im pissed af at norway (vent/rant incoming)
for being a transphobic state that forces me to choose between being deported and getting to exist. My friend (who was almost killed by NBTS cause theyre fucking incompetent assholes who would rather a trans person die than admit that they made a (small) mistake) says that once ive changed my legal gender i can demand estrogen from my normal doctor (bypassing NBTS), but i still need to look at the law to see if thats correct, plus changing my legal gender is a huge complicated mess cause it involves two states that dont cooperate at all, and i think the doctor can just straight up refuse to perscribe cause theyre “not knowledgeable enough” or “uncomfortable”. Fuck you norway you sack of shit fuck you fuck you fuck you. If you valued trans bodies half as much as cis bodies you would have addressed this years ago. But fuck, you just dropped forced sterilization as a requirement for gender change in 2016, and voted against apologizing to the victims of your eugenicist inspired policies. parliament is obsessed with “letting the experts make decisions in their field” but the field of trans healthcare is captured by terfs, transphobes, and hateful shitfucks who want help us by forcibly assimilating us into their gender hegemony just on the other side from our AGAB.
I dont know how relevant all that is, im exhausted and upset and probably not super cogent/on top of shit rn.
Im just tired of cis (and even some other queer people) saying its not that bad
or worse espousing norway as some great place for trans people. I mean, sure, i just get laughed at instead of murdered when im out on the streets, but thats not an idicator of an accepting society or a good place for trans people.
I’ve been eyeballing Norway as a potential place to move in the future… Fuk. I’m hoping to go further north because I don’t tolerate heat well and I want to leave the US, but it seems there’s not any good safe havens for us in the EU either.
So, to level with you, norway is better than specific places in the US. But if access to hormones is a must, then you should prepare for a long wait. I would almost recommend denmark or sweden or finland in that specific regard, because they are in the EU and should accept gendergp perscriptions, but those countries arent exactly good for trans people either. Norway may get better on the subject of trans rights and healthcare, and if so its honestly not a terrible place to live, its just not good. But it has guarantees on things that the US doesnt, such as housing. For me hormone access becomes an issue because DIY is technically illegal/semi legal, and norway can be a bit deportation-happy.
