- Transmasculine TEDx speaker Enea Venegoni shares the surprising challenges of transgender people with having to navigate a healthcare system that is designed to treat heterosexual cisgender patients. Doctors, nurses, and medical systems are neither trained nor used to treating trans patients and this leads to avoidable pain and suffering.
A transmasc person, Enea is a Policy Researcher and writer, with a background in psychology and neuroscience. In their daily life, they work as policy researcher, with a focus on inequalities in care, with the aim to promote evidence-based changes. As a writer, they have been featured on VICE Italy, i-D Italy, and other magazines and independent zines, mainly curating columns on queer culture and issues faced by the LGBTQI+ community, on top of writing informative articles for both the community and the general public in Italy. Their interests are related to equity in global health, research and the use of art as an agent for social-change. This talk was given at a TEDx event using the TED conference format but independently organized by a local community. Learn more at www.ted.com/tedx
Surprised the comments are on
Not for very long 😂😂
This comment section is so much more sane than I expected.
No one but ideologues care
“When people get used to preferential treatment, equal treatment seems like discrimination.”
Thomas Sowell
They just let anyone do a Ted talk these days.
its TEDx. heavily depending on the organizer.
It’s hard because healthcare is suited to someone’s anatomy and physiology and not only is the “bottom” surgery still wildly experimental and mental health being ignored, but it’s ultimately a battle between being socially correct or “cancelled”. The trans community want to go to their new gender doctors when that’s not what they have going on biologically and these facts are being ignored.
Exactly.
it should be hard to get. i’m glad there’s a shortage of doctors who will exploit vulnerable people and damage them for life.
@@jamaisvx it IS increadibly hard to get - doctor's shortage or not.
The hurdles are incredibly high.
Hard to be accepted if you don‘t accept yourself.
Sumbody had to say it 🤷♀️
👌
True.
Exactly 💯. They can keep their dysphoria & narcissism to themselves.
This person seems quite selfacceptant to me. Do you therefore accept this person likewise?
The healthcare they need is mental healthcare. Trying to fix their problem with surgeries and pills to block hormones is just making it worse.
because it's easier to make the claim of "malpractice" and healthcare professionals don't want to lose their license
Nowadays they let anyone to give TedTalk 😂
That's how TEDx talks work. Anyone passionate about a subject can be let in. The more strict requirements are for TED talks. On paper at least.
They get the same healthcare as everyone else. What they want is doctors to give them medically unnecessary drug treatments and hormones replacements, and for insurance to cover their cosmetic surgery.
Exactly. The VA pays for men who wish they were women to get laser hair removal. If I, as an actual woman, demanded that an insurance company pay for that they would laugh in my face.
Since anyone can do a Ted talk so I'm going to do mine which will be " why people with mental health are jealous of the opposite gender don't get health mental psychological treatment To show that they are being silly?" It's going to be much more interesting than this victimization of the disappointment of reality that they don't want to accept!
this is not ted talk, it's tedx
No it’s because we spend resources on this stuff leaving people in need hanging! Gotta be fair! 😢
Before that you should try learning how to write properly.
This is not true. My sibling is trans. If I could get medical attention as quickly as I can. She’s full of….
PREACH!!!
@imdavidbaby I don't do kids peak.
What do you mean wtf. Maybe she’s got a good deal, but do not generalize based only on your own anecdotes lmao
It depends on the place/country. healthcare doesn't function the same everywhere
What has Ted talks come to 😂
It because a sick in the head
Why are we here in this life? Why do we die? What will happen to us after death?
@nevergiveup5939 with that said you should have no opinion on anything in life cause that's the most generic sentence I've ever read anywhere that can be applied to literally every argument in the world yet offers no substance or meaning whatsoever thus rendering it obsolete and useless.
I had seen a shortfilm in India where transgenders are recognized not others of LGBTQA spectrum. They are identified but stil no healthcare!!! There should be healthcare for all. It should be ok for partner to buy insurance for their same gender partner. It should be ok for them to sign their medical papers! Simple step starts from asking them if they want to be attnded by male or female healthcare professionals.
It's not that hard, they can just go to any clinic and get treatments,
They want free healthcare. Free meds, free treatments, no copays, no deductibles, and the list goes on.
@@MsJonessss everybody want that,
I am leaving tedx talk😂
Same
Okay snowflake
Me too
Good. Be gone
why train every nurse and doctor to help a few individuals who chose to disfigure themselves in the first place
Because it could save lifes. Nough said.
@@PhantomderOmahow will it save lives? They're not on death row?
Thank you for your talk and congratulation to work of doctors and nurses that are any time of family of patients in a great pressure.Support❤❤❤❤❤😍
Easy times creates weak men
yea you dudes are a bunch of sissies
Yep. 💔
As if there were a shortage =)
why not accept who and what you are first
That’s exactly what they’re doing by seeking out gender affirming care.
@@tsarnicholasii274 What you are and what you feel like are 2 different things. Everyone should have the right to do with themselves as they see fit if it doesn't effect anyone else. But there any many other things that need to be taken care of before this.
@tsarnicholasii274 It was affirmed at birth.
@@tsarnicholasii274well actually no, the opposite is true for that argument
Who gets to decide what they are??
Cant believe Ted talk has come to this
Why not?
Might have to do with the fact that self mutilation is a pre-existing condition 😂
Thank you for sharing your experiences!
Focus on the real issue! And not this unimportant topic
Which is?
Cause they don't get the care they need, but get their delusions confirmed instead.
Because men with disfigured bodies want to be treated like women? And because women with disfigured bodies want to be treated like men? And doctors are not idiots.
Maybe because trans people choose to take unnecessary medication and hormonal treatments which will eventually make them very very sick? The long term effects we will learn about in the future won’t be surprising.
They already found transwomen have a high chance of having heart disease.
It quite literally is not unnecessary though. You can Google the statistics that show how gender affirming care drastically reduce the trans suicide rate, dysphoria, and feelings of depression
Might help to access the correct clinic and treatment, off the bat. Gender Disphoria treatment is lifesaving!
Repeating a slogan doesn't make it true. Why has the self death rate not dropped in these groups.
From what?
Because there aren't enough categories on medical forms so they don't get past the first lines?
omg, don't start giving them ideas
Ooh here we go 🥱
I have a urogenital cancer which is pretty funny for a trans person. I have never had any problem with my doctors, nurses, in laboratories, hospitals, emergency units... Even before my cancer, I was a blood and plasma donor and I never had any problems with the doctors and the nurses. So I interacted with hundreds of medical people and no problem... But I met patients which were really unmanageable because of this or that. You probably speak about such patients.
Also, damn I wish Ted Talks had some damn moderators to kick the bigots out.
real
I think u answered ur own question in your question.
Is there a way to filter out my subscriptions so that I don't get to see this? I still want to see other ted videos, but this popping up honestly ruined my day.
Because mental healthcare is not supported in our country.
These comments should be good. Love how the video was released three minutes ago yet people are already jumping to hate without even informing themselves of the actual situation. Gotta love the ignorance of transphobes.
It’s a joke. “So hard to be heard.”
This lunacy has been forced down our throats for decades now.
So disappointing. TED used to be followed and watched by people who were intelligent and open minded. This one seems to be nothing but bigots
@@luked4043 Except it literally hasn’t. It’s not even being forced down anyone’s throats, it’s simply people, human beings asking for healthcare which will more than likely save their lives
@@tsarnicholasii274 Cutting off healthy body parts will not save anyone's life.
came here for the ratio - 291 thumbs up - 1,400 thumbs down.
why is it so hard for me to win the powerball?
PLEAE DO NOT READ THE COMMENTS : BE KIND TO PEOPLE, ALL PEOPLE ❤
There's 2 terrible wars happening but let's all worry about hetero-cis-normativity instead! What a travesty.
Why is it so hard for trans people to remain straight?
I'm so proud of you Enea! 💖
Because you’re a lawsuit waiting ….
healthcare is easy if you have a job, now getting trans services paid for with some companies not so much.
Why is it so hard to get proper treatment for ANY person? I hope people get needed help before wanted help
Mental hazards and lawsuits?
The thing is. As someone training to be a doctor I understand completely where he is coming from, but this is a system that barely trains us in “standard” medicine. Most healthcare systems are on the verge of collapse in Europe and most doctors don’t have the time, knowledge, resources and training to actively train new doctors in these cases. Medicine is genderised quite literally by nature - it has to be, because of biology. Hopefully, a doctor will be compassionate and professional enough to educate themselves when taking on a new patient who happens to be queer.
Absolute insanity. We have lost our minds. Hey trans people - we don’t hate you - we’re just tired of THIS BS! Or at least people didn’t y’all before
what does transmasc mean in terms of healthcare this person looks like a female woman? Im not understanding
When wasting money on mutilating body will be harder to repair it.
why they make it so hard for themselves is the question
😂 that is the real question
Careful you might trigger some Chaos

They don't, poor health systems do. Suicide attempts cost more than HRT, HRT reduces said suicide attempts
Well done my people
I'm an intermediate English learner. timing = 0:24. 'the gender Spectrum I can confirm you to it's true'. In this caption, this preposition 'to' would be strange grammatically. She/he is pronouncing 'with', I suppose. I want to know the original words of acronym 'GP'. This experts speaks confidently, I'm apprentice, so I don't know this supporting actor. Would it be 'gender psychiatrist'?
The subtitles are not very good; I think it's because of their accent. "the gender spectrum I can confirm it is true." A GP is a General Practictioner, a family doctor. You sometimes see PC instead for Primary Care doctor.
@@CharleneCTX 様.
Thank you for your polite reply. I can feel I can get over the difficulties lying in front of me thanks to your advice. Would you mind if I ask you a question? Wouldn't the acronym of 'Primary Care doctor' be written as 'PCD'? If it'd be allowed to abbreviate it. I'm into today's VOA (voice of America learning English 10/11 Making Abbreviations: Acronyms, initialism).
You go against God and Nature 😅
Yep. Lost me. Congrats.
That's right and thanks for breaking it down! Despite the economic downturn, I am very happy to have made a profit of $55,000 on my investment of $9,000 every 14 days.
WHAT! I would really appreciate it if you could show me how to do it. Please can you list the platforms?
The crypto market is highly profitable with an expert broker like Mrs RACHEL CYNTHIA LOWER, they recommended me and since then my financial life has been a success.
Same here, I make $55,000 in 2 weeks. GOD bless RACHEL CYNTHIA LOWER , she has been a blessing to my family.
I have also been trading with her, The profits are secured and over a 100% return on investment directly sent to your wallet. I made up to $560,000 in months trading with her.
my portfolio has been going down the drain while I try trading myself, I just don't know what I did wrong, please how can someone get to speak with RACHEL CYNTHIA LOWER?
It isnt
Because they put abortion in the same category as Healthcare... so who knows what they want.
More delusional people on TED. What happened to this organization?
They went woke.
Nice your sounds
healthcare should be a right for everyone and it is insane anyone in the comments is having a problem understanding. empathy is nonexistent these days and bible thumpers are too busy thumping instead of reading and seeing that jesus christ was one of the most empathetic people to ever live and would have never said anything close to the hateful rhetoric around the queer and trans community. everyone deserves to feel loved and to feel safe and to have their health monitored properly. i hope one day we live in that world
If you are born a man and you try to get treatment that only a female would get, you are going to die slowly in agonizing pain because you're not a female.
This is My Friend ❤
Your friend is a nut. He’s insane literally. You should stop being friends with him and seek help.
@seajay2157 only half agree with you. You shouldn't drop your friends cause they have mental problems, you should bring friends with people who act like you
This is so true. Practioners are not well-trained, wait times are horrible for PRACTIONERS who are well trained, and the health care system is heavily gender-ized.
it is, because it's bloody damn important to know what the biological gender is of a person to help with a diagnoses
Believe it or not, there really are only two genders. And yes I know about kleinfelters xxy.
@basszoneproduction after transition a lot of characteristics change, it should be treated different than just the gender assigned at birth
@@joxitukyour dna doesnt change
I thought I was about to hear some shh that'll help me get through this regular job
Has it ever tried just going to a veterinarian?
🌹👌🌹👍🌹🙏🌹
Proud of you Enea+proud of all member of the trans community🩷🩵 We are ALL human
You are not humen. You are the ended humen. You don't jave a right to exist in the world🖕🏿
Yes, human. However, the rise in mental illness and transgenderism seem to correlate
@@alcoentertainment1111mental health professional here- i’d suggest not making conclusions about such impactful topics you’re clearly not educated on
@@kalekoiaccording to the Yale School of Public Health, the National Institute of Health, and American Psychiatric Association my statement remains valid so do tell how you haven't published something irrefutable for these institutions to promote if you are so much smarter than our health organizations.
@@alcoentertainment1111 homie i can’t even see your original comment, but the way you just cite things like that without any elaboration really speaks to your scientific integrity
You where assigned a gender at birth wheres the confusion here? Your history is on the Drs notes. Is this about catering to feelings? Do you expect the same from your mechanic?
Thats easy question to guess an answer! Cant afford it due to high liability/risk for payout. Car insurance aint much different. Ten dui? Yeah we will insure you but its ten thousand a month premiums 😂 ten surgeries to change what wasnt broken? Looks like theres lifelong surgical risk for maintenance and complications… so heres the price for your premiums lol 😂
We don’t care about trans peoples healthcare if we can’t even get healthcare out afford our own housing ! That and this talk is filled with a bunch of lies.
It wasn't a specific at all it wasn't explained how they were discriminated nothing was clear everything was vague everything was about nothing was conclusive all that it was clear to me it was that I'm entitled to this I'm entitled to that all she said that government should pay for all their health Care they make a decision to leave in a way that makes them feel better but they want other people to pay for their decisions that's wrong on so many levels it's like this kind of people turn off their conscious switch they took a decision to mutilate their genitalia they should live with their decision I'm pay for their healthcare themselves
I don't walk that road !
This is so true.
Invite Palestinian speakers
🙏💛
Because they have a very complicated situation
😂!
Start with your own mental health.
Bruh this is a joke.
Nice sounds
Transmasculine.
ok cool personality your trying out there.
just stop
Get a grip
I’m thankful I’m Muslim. We don’t deal with these issues because we aren’t lustful. Praise be to Allah.
Nah, I'm good. The less religion, the better
No you guys just like goats and little boys😂!
What are you talking about - Iran, along with Thailand, is one of the world capitals of gender confirmation surgery. But also there are plenty of queer Muslims in the world
@@CJT49 and that’s okay. As Muslims we have chapter 109 (very short, 6 verses) in the Quran that teaches us to live alongside people who don’t believe in our religion at all. If you’re lucky, you’ll learn more about Islam. It’s nothing like the religions you have experienced and god is good.
@@consentacademy What are you talking about - Thailand is majority Buddhist not Muslim. The majority of trans in Thailand come from the Isaan region and Isaan is about 99.9% Buddhist.
Shalom.
Cause they are freeky🎉😅
This is true❤
You’re part of the problem
Errrm what the deuce ?
I have news for you it’s hard for ANYONE to get healthcare these days. It’s not just trans people. It’s not always about you.
“all lives matter” energy, ew. have you considered it might be hard for everyone but *especially* hard for trans people? (of course not)
Ted went woke
🙄
She is great more English
That's a man bro
What
It’s hard for everyone. You’re not special because you decided you wanted to play dress up.
Ill pray for this young man
🙄🙄🙄🙄
Trans-people would be things that are partially people and partially something else.
oh lord i can’t believe y’all are trying this 😭 digging yourselves in an early grave it actually kind of breaks my heart
Maybe it is better to have a sane and happy short life than to live a long life with mental health and not being yourself. You would not understand unless you are one of this individuals.
@@LOVETOBEWITHYOU60 no, what should happen is people find their authentic selves, and stop grasping on to identities. that’s sad you believe that people should self harm in the name of happiness
Is simple you show up and describe your body, Male or female . The rest is up to you. For God sake.
well this vod make unsubscribe from TEDx Talks sadge 🥲
