Mary Austin on Nostr: I am all in favor of not being ableist towards people who deal with incontinence, ...
I am all in favor of not being ableist towards people who deal with incontinence, which is very common. We should also be aware of the injustice in our medical system, that procedures which fix some kinds of incontinence are considered "elective," i.e. not covered by insurance, so that many people suffer from a treatable problem just to increase insurance company profits.
I'm all for advocating for medical justice.
That said: That. Is. Not. what these people are doing. 🤦♀️
