"Better understanding the clitoris can help everyone, regardless of their gender identity, but it's important to acknowledge this research is only possible because of gender-affirming surgeries and transgender patients. There's something profound about the fact that gender-affirming care becoming more commonplace also benefits other areas of health care. A rising tide lifts all boats. Oppressing or limiting transgender health care will harm everyone." -- Dr. Blair Peters, quoted in "Science Helps Reveal Secrets of the Clitoris" by Cara Murez, HealthDay, 2022-11-01

I'm glad this research is happening. I also wish this phrase wasn't so common because it became popularized (lol, I initially typoed that word with two O's) by trickle-down economics.

Oh I didn't know that! I heard of it in "this is why we should raise the minimum wage and all wages" discussions. A reclamation or a misstatement? hmm.

The problem continues to be what to do when it seems that harming everyone is the ultimate goal anyway.
