Feel free to let it all out!
Ah sorry to hear that. I’m also quite poor and yet spending a ton on health insurance just to be able to get a half decent coverage. But it’s great you found a solution there.
So it’s too expensive to visit one or is it an emotional thing?
Therapy should be covered, but hair removal is not. Only when a therapist officially states I’m transgender, insurance can pay for it. And even then they might try not to, but I also found a resource telling us what to do when that’s the case.
I’m stoked to get the ball rolling, in any case :D
Ya it’s the same in the Netherlands. Really pisses me off to no end. I know people have different opinions about it but to me it’s nothing but plain discrimination.
There’s the obvious argument that if there aren’t any hurdles for hair removal to be covered, anyone can freely do it. Which means the insurance would just jack up prices for everyone.
They always like finding new excuses to do that, and that would be a great one for them.
But on the bright side, Germany has passed a new law that will make it much easier and nicer to change your legal name and gender. So I got that going for me, at least.
