The LGTBI+ association Ben Amics denounces that the Gender Identity Consultation (CDIG) at Son Espases treats trans people as if they were sick, questions their identities, and hides information about access to hormonal treatments.

Ben Amics accuses a psychologist at the Gender Identity Clinic (CDIG) of Son Espases of transphobia after collecting testimonies from 30 people who claim to have received discriminatory treatment between 2020 and 2026.

It is not a freedom for everyone or for anything. It is what fascists consider appropriate and for whom they deem worthy. They defend the freedom to go to mass, but not to go to the mosque. They eat lamb pastries for Easter, but they are scandalized when Muslims celebrate the lamb festival. They make their children practice a religion without consulting them, but if they have sex education at school, it is indoctrination. They talk about the right to think as one wishes, but they want to ban political parties with a different ideology. They think the State should not interfere in our existences, but they point fingers at people who do not live according to their precepts.
