The whole "Neovagina is an open wound" meme is an incredible case study in conspiracy theory thinking Zero papers discussing the alleged problem Thousands of witnesses attesting it's not true from seeing one up close All they have is confirmation bias
The "evidence" that inspired the meme is men on 4chan hearing about dilators for the first time and inventing a juvenile fantasy about what they're for The "confirmation" is immediate post-surgery pictures that look like the area has just had surgery.
The quality of replies here is excellent, it's like watching them build a motte and bailey on the spot
@tpwrtrmnky And "it stank lik p00" ignores every PIV, zero depth, or peritoneal procedure - which comprise the vast majority - and ignores the actual long-term effects of intestinal procedures (also done for cis women with vaginal agenesis and the like).
@tpwrtrmnky Even fully healed pictures don’t look anything like a natal vagina
@tpwrtrmnky wait you mean that immediately after surgery it looks like surgery has occured? i had never considered this. mind = blow
@tpwrtrmnky So one does not need to keep the neovagina open with a dilator? What is it for then?
@tpwrtrmnky Breaking news, post surgery areas look gross.
