MNHQ: I'd like to start a thread about the reality of phalloplasty without it being deleted

MNHQ has already deleted one thread "not in the spirit".

Fair enough.

Please lay out exactly how I can start a thread about phalloplasty, with images (of arms, not of penises).
This is important. Thousands of girls are identifying as boys, and the medical pathway for those girls includes breastbinding, double mastectomies, hysterectomies and phalloplasties.

Guidance from many institutions is unquestioning affirmation.

I want to discuss this. Truthfully.

Tell me how I can do this without MNHQ deleting my thread and I will follow your rules to the letter.

Or tell the thousands of women on this site that we are forbidden from discussing the outcome of SRS for girls entirely.

What are your rules please?

Evening Barracker and thanks for asking the question.

We understand that you want to discuss the subject and absolutely don't want to stop you doing that. But the picture you used in your OP was fairly hard hitting and we got a fair few reports from folk who were upset by it. We know you posted a warning but still...

We also appreciate that it's already been circulated elsewhere and that you were using it to discuss your point. That said, given that this is a photo of a person who could end up reading the thread, we didn't think that basing the discussion on them in particular was in the spirit.

Any chance you could start the new thread without the pic?

As we've said, there's absolutely no reason why you can't start a thread discussing the subject of phalloplasty, if you wish to do so.

We just ask that you please stay within our Talk Guidelines.
