what's in it for me in TEL Aviv getting bombed fun fact Iran is actually the world's second largest hub for gender reassignment surgeries and the iranian government not only supports gender assignment they actually will financially subsidize it for their citizens and once you have completed your transition they will actually change your gender marker on your birth certificate so you won't have any issues um with subsequent paperwork and I just think that's an interesting fact to know I'm not sharing this because I am in any shape way or form defending the Islamic regime of Iran uh hell would have to freeze over for me to do that but just simply pointing out that there are a lot of things that people are very misinformed on and they're gonna be espousing very strong opinion with very little fact checking
