Kari Mugo, Bitch Media: A lack of understanding of trans identity, gender presentation and the community's needs creates barriers to health care on every level, from insurance coverage to conversations over the pharmacy counter to the emergency room. Furthermore, the medicalization of trans bodies has enabled the medical community to essentially act as gatekeepers to trans identity.
