That’s supposed to be a test?

Hahaha! HAHAHAHA! MWAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!!

(Okay, but some of the non-loaded questions do show insight. Such as the genderless society one, or the one about the opportunity to become cis.)

More specifically on that one question:

35. A doctor offers you a painless, absolutely effective means to be completely masculine. All feminine desires and traits would be eliminated, and you would be happy and content to be a man. You would never need to dress, and you would never want to be feminine in any way again. You are assured that after the treatment you would be completely content. Would you take the treatment?

I can see why someone would answer yes, but I picked the “it would feel like death” option. Seriously, it would mean the end of almost everything I am, and the creation of a different person. Metaphorical suicide. I wonder if it’s out of sheer defiance…

And the very thought of such a “treatment” being invented scares me. Would it displace transition? Maybe not, but there would be political factions advocating its forced use on traps. (“You want to be a woman? Don’t worry! We’ll make you proud of being a man, and you’ll never have such silly thoughts again!”) They would like to demolish this wonderful world and replace it with the plain old—

Wait, that sounds eerily familiar.
