Bluesloth felt that my moderation on a thread was "Offensive, wrong and dangerous," and decided to smite me for it, a clear violation of rule 2 in this instance. However, if there was even the benefit of doubt on the topic I would have left the smite. Since there isn't I reversed the smite and then removed the ability for Bluesloth to issue reputation for the rest of their time on this site.
The user on the thread in the Androgyne forum was seeking information on which medications they should be getting for the purpose of self medicating. To wit, "I'd like to know how can i stop testosterone production in the body, and then increase estrogen lightly, enough but not a lot so to avoid breast growth, because i don't want breast growth at this point."

Quote1. HRT isn't a game. You only take HRT drugs when want to transition to the other gender, not to get to some happy medium.
2. No doctor will prescribe HRT for this purpose so the purpose of this thread is self medication.
3. Locked.
HRT isn't a game. It will affect the rest of your life, sterility for example. Side effects include Deep Vein Thrombosis, Liver Function Problems, Stroke, Blood Clots, Breast Cancer, Gallstones, Cancer, and Dementia.
I don't mind if you smite me if I warrant it, but if it is not warranted I do not recommend it. Especially in this case when it is for an official moderation action...
