    the number of transitioned people who were harmed by the process is significantly less than the people who feel it improved their life significantly. there are failures across all medical procedures, you don’t see people denying appendectomies to people because a few people died? get over yourself and let people live their best life

        If they want a sex change, just let them do it when they become an adult

        That’s already how it works. You’re angry at a thing that doesn’t exist and that nobody is suggesting.

        Yes, that’s correct. They need puberty blockers, so they can make the decision when their old enough instead of having that decision forced upon them.

        That’s why we don’t let them drive, drink, smoke, or consent to sex.

        You were never a teenager, were you?

        Oh look, a conservative who knows nothing about the thing they’re loudly bitching about.

        Trans healthcare is FAR more than genital surgery, in fact thats a pretty small segment overall. Especially with teens were largely talking about therapy more than anything, and OCCASIONALLY easily reversible treatments like hormone blockers. NOBODY is out here slicing up children’s genitals (except the circumcision folk of course, which y’all are conveniently silent about)
