This comic is about transsexuals' human rights in Sweden.

I am fucking sick of my lack of 'em.

I feel your pain. I really do.

I'm also worried about transpeoples chance to have a kid. In some country transsexual diagnosis is "mental illness" (when it's not: if you're depressed you can get better, but trans is always trans) - try to get adoption with that. After forced sterilization, saved eggs/sperm will be destroyed as well. One chance is to make biological child before forced sterilization and juridical sex change - no matter of your life situation, age, is it against your gender identity, are you sure you ever want to have kids... ID is not a medical reason for these forced sterilizations. Transpeople can get healthy child and be a great parents too.

At the same time some country, you can not have sterilization just because it's your own will. Society tries to "protect" our ability to make children ("you will regret it afterwards"). Where's our right over our own bodies?
Same question: why you can get surgery for big boobs if you're just ready to pay, but for cutting off you need diagnosis.

That kid in the first panel on the second row is litterally exactley like me. I've said the same stuff countless times as well. This really helped a lot, even though it was supposed to be about a different issue entirely ^_^

Get the heck outta Sweden. That's just sick. (Im biologically female but I am actually Neutrois (leaning more towards male) so technically I am trans too. Those laws have to be changed. What the HECK happened to human rights?)

Hey I really have to ask this since I am thinking about moving to Sweden. I am from Finland ftm and on T and also waiting for chest surgery.. so what kind of surgery do you mean and do you have like any idea if I am in legal papers male, am I there too? How things go there like.. is there transpoliclinics like on here or what? Please either reply or note me. And also how much there are hatecrimes in Sweden and/or people with shitty thoughts about being trans? One of the reasons why I am considering moving there is since Finland is bad place to live as 'different' in society's eyes and in nearly everyone's eyes..

Until July 2013 you can't change the sex on your ID until you get sterilized. :/ I'm happy the law is going to get removed soon though!

There are clinics here. Some I've heard are really good while others are stuffed with cissexist doctors. (why do you decide to work with trans if you're cissexist?! :| )

There are hatecrimes in Sweden and I know plenty of trans people who receive nasty comments, but I don't think Sweden is especially bad when it comes to that kind of narrow-mindedness....
