Clearly a shining beacon of trans-rights.

It doesn’t so much “allow” as “forces”.
Cis gay man? Get surgery or die.
Trans woman who doesn’t want surgery? Get surgery or die.
This tidbit is sometimes presented like it’s a pro-trans win, but the truth is far from pretty.
If you get caught as a cis-gendered gay man in Iran then you’re potentially facing the death penalty. In a legal move that wouldn’t exist anywhere else in the world, you can plea-bargain your ding dong into a hoo-hah.
If the state is offering you a choice between mutilation or death, is it even really a choice?
Yeah, my first thought when reading the post was “it’s not despite, it’s because of.”
Never trust one of OP’s headlines.
You saying that about this user in particular or just any post?
Mostly the former, but it’s good advice generally as well.
wondering why we shouldn’t trust OP - might be helpful to know …
Trans folks are not always homosexual…
and it’s worth pointing out, a trans woman is straight if she likes men (not a homosexual), either way it’s true that sexual orientation is independent of gender identity - there are trans people who are attracted to the same sex, to the opposite sex, to both, or to neither.
