This was a good game! I just wish it reflected the ways that toxic masculinity can make it harder for men to get mental health care. Toxic masculinity says that men should be able to solve any emotional problem by exercising. "You're stressed? Try a kickboxing class."
You did a really good job portraying the medical community's attitudes toward trans people. I check one little box saying I have a uterus, and I get called "She, sorry, um, He? They! Okay, they." for the rest of the appointment.
