April 10th: The bill has been vetoed!
April 2nd: The politicians in Arizona are about to sign into law a bill that would mandate sites like e621 to either impose age verification on all users or be at a risk of lawsuits. Such system would be required to go through third party vendors, who in turn must go through a government database to verify every user's age. This is not only a major violation of privacy, but it also opens up a very real danger of identity theft through phishing schemes and other methods, not to mention that we would not be able to control any of that information to make sure it is permanently deleted after age verification is complete.
Unfortunately, Arizona is the state out of which e621 operates, which means that this law will almost certainly affect us if it is to pass. If want to help us ensure that this site can continue to serve you without being required to know who you are, please ask the Arizona governor to veto this bill.
Please, help us get the word out by letting others know about this issue.
For some further information on what the bill does have a look at https://action.freespeechcoalition.com/bill/arizona-hb-2586/
We still have a Discord server, come talk to us!

MemberI'd mirror the basic question, though. What does HRT stand for in this context?

MemberHormone Replacement Therapy.

Blockedas a trans woman on hrt for over 3 and a half years (Hormone replacement therapy) there is no health risks as long as you get your hormones tested by yearly and have cancer screenings every few months, after 4 years you never have to go to the doctor again and you just stay on HRT, there are no health risks unless you have prior liver damage or simmilar medical condition that will be effected by a full hormonal change.

Wow ain't it a bitch when you do a quick google search that disproves this bs fear mongering.

MemberYou do realize that to start hrt (Like I have) you have to go to a doctor and be informed of the risks. Same way I was with my Hrt Meds, Anti Depressant Meds, and my ADHD meds? They aren't over the counter for the reason that they have side effects so stop this transphobia fear mongering bs when we as Trans people in transition on hrt already know about the risks and know about the drugs we are taking way more than you do. I also love that you point to the small amount of studies that show it safe WHEN MONITORED BY A DOCTOR but then link other articles sourcing the same studies WHICH SAY THE SAME THING as proof that Trans people on HRT are going to have health complications 100% of the time. I as a trans woman who is on HRT would rather have the risks of hrt happen to me and develope health disorders if it means that I can go ONE YEAR without Gender Dysphoria. All people on HRT are informed of the risks and have to sign a consent form. STFU that you care because you don't. You don't understand what it is like to be trans and how much it helps your mental health when you are able to go out into the world and treated as the gender you are and not the gender you are perceived to be. You don't care to actually research the topic since you post articles proving my point. The people you think are pushing HRT on people are people who are fighting for the ability for trans people to have easy access to HRT where they are informed of the risks and have to consent to it just like ANTI Depressants, ADHD meds, Chemo, and many MANY other drugs that cause side effects but will overall improve your life when taken and monitored by a doc.

Blockeduh, i havent been to the doctor since i broke my ankle, ive been on HRT for 3 years now. there arent really any health risks from my experience
Crossbreed
MemberPeople arguing about healthy habits on e621 is probably one of the funniest things Ive seen in a while. No one here is the picture of health. Find art you like and stop arguing about things outside of your depth on a forum where you have no chance of convincing anyone to change the way they think on the matter.

Memberhormone replacement theropy, transgender people use it to transition
Nikoapp
Blockedyou can only get prostate/breast cancer in the first few years if your hormones are not regulated and if you have underlying issues, otherwise with standard medical care you get while transitioning the risk is near nothing, and after 4 years you wont have to ever go to a doctor again, just continue your HRT and any other issues you will have after that wont be related to your hormones.

Membernot me im built different

MemberThe only way three people talking about trans stuff online, two of which getting in online slapfights about it, having avatars of blåhaj, possums with internet speak and glopossum art respectively could seem more like something out of an anti-sjw meme is if the one with walls of text and allcaps insults was the possum one instead of the calm comment.

MemberCan both sides of this goofy discussion just chill?
As the old adage goes: "Take it easy, it's just a drawing."
CoolMintyFreshness
MemberFunny seeing transphobes on a furry porn site.
Granted, I think there should be a civil discussion about things, as there are some health risks associated with surgery and hormone therapy. However, so does pretty much everything else.

MemberSunlight gives you cancer too. May as well not go outside.

MemberI don't like trans Bugs Bunny.

I LOVE IT.
If I didn't love it, I wouldn't watch it.
Claykid
MemberRight? I thought conservatives would have a stroke upon seeing a nanosecond of the stuff on this site.
ohheklenu
MemberOne thing you learn about life VERY quickly is a lot of normal everyday things can cause cancer, its why the cancer warning label is on so many things in California, since they're forced to show what can cause cancer, however slight.
Greens
MemberHeh, that's kinda cute
RedRapture
MemberI saw some drugs that have side effects of DEATH. Still, we've almost got cancer beat so saying something may give you cancer is like saying eating raw chicken can give you salmanella, just with a much more expensive price tag and heal time.
As for the picture, while this is a good joke, given that Bugs crossdressed for a tactical advantage in his fights and then immediately reverted back to male bugs, I don't think Bugs is going to come out as a trans, especially given his reaction to Lola. All the trans women I know stick to being a woman all the time just as naturally as a biological woman.
