minus-squarezenbhang@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkarrow-up4·edit-211 months agoThis may be the video essay you’re talking about.

One interesting tidbit from the video was how Iran’s government even recognizes sex reassignment surgery and may even cover the cost. Mentioned partway through the video as well as this Economist article.
