a hypothetical response to the question "do you smoke?"
If someone were at the doctor and the doctor asked "do you smoke?" or a similar question, and the doctor was a bigot and would take away their medication, and this someone didn't smell like smoke or have stains on their fingers or anything, then, maybe, they could just lie. Sometimes shitty doctors use stuff like that as an excuse to detransition their patients, after all. It wouldn't necessarily be ethical, but it would be in the interest of self-preservation for someone in a situation like that. (Unlike smoking or whatever else it is they're doing.)
"Wait, are you telling me to lie?"
No? It's just possible to lie, like, hypothetically, if you really think about it. If you're writing a book with a transsexual character in it and that character has to go to the doctor, they could maybe do this to preserve their bodily autonomy. In real life, it would be inadvisable.
WHAT YOU NEED
- 1 prepared lie
