At Spotify, we believe being able to freely identify and express your gender in a safe, welcoming environment means you get to be the best version of yourself. That’s why we’re proud to have worked closely with our LGBTQIA+ Employee Resource Group, Spectrum, to launch a new benefit. From 1 January 2019, Spotify began offering coverage of masculinization and feminization treatment as recommended by the World Professional Association for Transgender Health (WPATH) in association with a diagnosis of gender dysphoria.
1:48 commercial:

Wouldn't it be cheaper and actually better for the "patient" if they were to simply offer enhanced psychiatric benefits?

Someone actually gets paid to do this.

I'm not a big boycotter, but I've been looking for an excuse to dump Spotify premium. Bye.

I guess it's time to port over my Spotify playlists to Apple play. This is particularly sad.

If they want to do this, then whatever. But...
Are they going to increase the premiums paid by normal employees to cover the new cost of this?
Why would a company create a commercial for their health benefits package and put it on youtube? Are they really trying to attract more mentally ill employees, or are they just trying to virtue signal and push an agenda? We all know the answer.

Spotify once again bowing to wokeness in an effort to smooth their rocky relationship with the industry.

masculinization and feminization treatment
If this works, then shouldn't the standard of care be to masculinize chromosomal men and feminize chromosomal women? Especially minors, who by law lack capacity to make this choice.
If I had dysphoria (read: a mental illness and dimished capacity to make medical decisions) and wanted to be a genetic dolphin, and there was a choice between a dolphinization treatment, which included surgically implanted fins and a blowhole, on one hand, and humanization (you know, compatible with the human genes that comprise my actual human body) therapy on the other, which would a doctor be required to administer ethically?
And assuming a doctor could ethically heed the directives of a mentally ill patient and transform him into a dolphin, does society have a duty to not only accept this creature but also change its mores, facilities, etc to accommodate the mandolphinthing?
Or is my example just too absurd because it's just one mentally ill person v. a handful of people? And how do we decide who has actual physiological dolphin or gender dysphoria versus merely wanting to join the latest fringe group, out of a need to belong or garner attention (symptoms of yet a other mental illness perhaps), or cheat in sports?
This is why I say, I'll be sympathetic and nice and gracious to all people, regardless of mental illness, but what the hell else do you people want?

Isn't Spotify a music streaming app? What does this have to do with music streaming? I'm confused.
