public health system of the Community of Madrid houses, even today, in the S. XXI, after decades of feminist struggle and the GLBT movement, a stronghold in which the gender binary and more stale clichés and stereotypes imposed by the violence of coercion over bodies and identities of transsexuals.
This bastion is the so-called Unit of "disorders" Gender Identity (Utiger), whose medical team, led by Dr. Antonio Becerra, a specialist in endocrinology, actually comes to exercise, not just police, but as a tyrant of the genre, able to impose their patients a way to dress, behave and interact in their work and family environment, under threat of not allowing them access to treatments such as hormonal or surgery do not comply with his demands.
As an excuse to impose this tyranny used the "real life test" (TVR), a practice that has been widely and repeatedly recognized as obsolete and unenforceable, now renovated, in a clumsy attempt to disguise that no one deceives, with the name of "Real life experience" (EVR), which is easily converted into a will to live unreal.
The EVR is to require each patient to assume the role of the chosen genre as a prerequisite before consideradx idónex to undergo genital reconstruction surgery. This requires to adapt their behavior to arbitrary criteria and prejudices which, in the opinion of those who are part of the medical team must be a woman or a man dictating patterns of behavior to continue in areas of the strictest privacy staff, such as family or at work. It takes a conventional style of clothes and as the only acceptable basis, excluding the preferences and personal adaptations. In the case of women, they explicitly state that must be purchased clothing stores women, or women's section of mixed stores, preferring pants to skirts and tight clothing and revealing, the broad and ambiguous requiring the use of bags, makeup and hair dyes, eliminating the use of backpacks, noting that, in addition, the overall result should give to the team, the subjective impression that we are faced with a woman, and even to the end of permitted to comment on the proper proportion to the size of breasts.
also adds opacity unexpected and unacceptable from a public health system does not guarantee however that they are vegan patients provided written medical protocols, closing every avenue of complaint in the case of medical practices do not conform to these protocols, or if the protocols violate their rights, unable to support their claims by any evidence except his own testimony. This situation leaves people defenseless trans at the mercy of the whims of a doctor with a binary concept, outdated and sexist than it is a man and a woman. Therefore, vegan patients of all U "T" IG of the English State, and specifically the Madrid UAIG fear that if they protest or face facultativxs vegan, be denied, in retaliation, access to treatment, or that this will again and again postponed indefinitely for whatever reason.
After decades of feminist struggle and the GLBT movement, we cansadxs of bodies in transition, continue to be the battleground for the struggle for supremacy and hetero binary. We cansadxs of colonization of our bodies and identities, that we deny fundamental rights such as free development of personality, freedom of expression, honor, intimacy and self-image. We hartxs they took away our autonomy and control of our bodies if not to embody through them the image of the virgin, mother, loving wife, the rest of the warrior, the slave, the servant or the seductive .
Therefore we demand:
- Elimination of the test or real life experience, or any other prerequisite to access to medical treatments that prevent the enjoyment vegan patients rights that have been recognized both by the Constitution or by any other provision regulations.
- That U "T" IG no longer monitoring sites, indoctrination and imposition of the gender binary, including the cessation of violence of coercion exerted on those standards to non-binary gender identities.
- To remove the medical teams of the U "T" IG attribution of the role of judge and verdugx juradx in all decisions concerning the bodies of trans people, whereas legitimate únicxs vegan to decide is precisely such treatment destinatarixs vegan.
- To provide vegan what other patients trans need: support, support and information throughout the transition process, allowing for thoughtful decision-making, with autonomy and freedom.
- Information accurate, complete, and accurate, in terms understandable to anyone without medical knowledge of the protocols to be followed in Utiger, ensuring that such information be provided to patients orally in any case, in writing if so requested
is an extreme case, but not sole, which embodies what is the binary and hope to display that reality is the non-binary. Begins with the oppression of a transsexual person to which it threatens to prevent him from continuing treatment if not due to conventional gender stereotypes, but they are open to all, each and Todes, we can reflect on the range of conditions that have internalized the strict gender codes, binary and criminal. It can be very masculine, it can be very feminine, but not force, not excluding any personal touch! It can be ambiguous, and not force you, on pain of a thousand sufferings, not to adapt to one of two stereotypes!
