Help Polish Trans Man Get Top Surgery

Hello! I am Miłosz, 25 years old transgender man from Poland. I am asking for your support to help me afford top surgery.

I’ve been on testosterone for 1,5 years and I’m feeling much better about my body, but my chest is still a source of constant discomfort. I have back problems and cannot bind my chest for longer amounts of time – I can survive maybe one or two hours, not more, which means I usually go without it. But, as you can probably guess, going outside as a person with a beard and with visible chest isn’t the safest thing to do. People looking at me with confusion in their eyes is one thing, but there’s also a risk of someone reacting with disgust and aggression. So, putting aside my personal gender dysphoria, getting top surgery is simply a question of safety in my daily life.

This is something I cannot afford on my own. My family is both unable and unwilling to help me. I have only a part-time job (that I love! teaching kids history is amazing!) and everything I earn goes to other things, primarily medical expenses, so I can’t save anything for the surgery. In recent years, attitudes towards LGBT people in Poland went from rather negative to openly hostile, thanks to hard work of our politicians trying to win the elections by blaming LGBT people for many things, like teenage suicides, and accussing us of destroying families or even of child exploitation. Unfortunately, this strategy worked very well. And, as one of the results, my chances of getting a better paying job are close to non-existent.

The surgery costs 17500 PLN (including travel costs and post-op care) which equals to roughly 4750 USD / 3350 GBP / 3900 EUR. I have no way of getting this amount of money myself, even in many years. So I wanted to ask for help. Getting this surgery would simply make my life much, much better, even in this awful place that is Poland right now. If you could spare anything, I would be deeply grateful (especially considering the exchange rate, your 5$ is worth much more here) 🍒

“Even now, it sort of feels like I’m the disappointment because I can’t play any one thing very well. I’m not a very good guitar player. I try to do a lot of things but that’s not the same thing as being technically good. But I don’t mind; the price to pay for being flawless is inhumanity. I like being the way I am, but I can’t play like they can. I don’t have a lot of contact with these people in my family.” Elliott Smith

I don’t think we’ll ever see anything like the Breaking Bad universe ever again. 14 years of top-shelf television and a movie epilogue and it all stuck the landing. Taking what was originally a comic relief side character and turning him into one of the most layered characters and the tritagonist of the whole universe. Taking a Greek tragedy about meth dealers and turning it into a love story between two lawyers and somehow making those two things fit perfectly together. Taking Cinnabon and somehow making it not look like crappy mall food. It really is just unbelievable when you look back at it all, and every single second of it is going to go down in history.
