I don't think anyone, even trans people, are for wantonly making kids alter their bodies permanently right off the bat.
I think most of the sentiment I've seen on this topic is around recognizing gender dysphoria early, not necessarily forcing treatment onto children early. They're two different things. Allowing a kid to present as the gender they'd like is different from lopping off body parts of injecting them with hormones during a time of uncertainty.
For me, that's where the line is. If the kid shows obvious signs of dysphoria, I don't see the harm in letting them present as the other gender or exploring what gender means to them.
The area that is iffy for me is when you start fucking around with hormones and surgeries. I'm not really sold on how safe that is. I also haven't read into long term studies on this topic, and if they exist in great detail -- so I'm pleading a little ignorance. But when in doubt, I default to cautious around something like that.

I agree with you on this. I think there’s a push for the kids to do this or that.
I don’t think the hormones or surgery are a good idea for anyone under a certain age. I guess it’s hard to say that age should be over 18 but I think it should be. It’s a really hard situation and to make generalizations on. I’ve seen people say 4 years olds are sure they are the wrong gender and parents pushing it at young ages and I don’t support this.
As for the hormones I don’t think there’s much research on it because it hasn’t been happening long term and I’m sure they don’t want this information out there. Europe has stopped doing this from what I understand because the outcomes were not what was desired meaning they didn’t improve the life or happiness of the individual. I haven’t researched this much either. I have heard many that have surgery regret it and there’s no going back but again how accurate is that?? I could see the hormones being rejected by the body, causing a lot of issues and increasing cancer rates. I’ve read many times women taking testosterone can have a really high increased sex drive that can be problematic for them and their lives.

I think what it is is that people are saying kids shouldn’t be able to make permenant life altering decisions and the left wants that. Did you know at 12 kids in NYS can make certain health care decisions without parental concern or knowledge. I believe abortions, birth control, and gender treatment are on the list. I had to have a health care proxy for my son at 14-15 to go back and talk about his ear surgery with the doctor. That’s what people are sick of.
You see how far you've narrowed that down from where the thread started?

A small but *extremely* vocal group is demanding society change to accommodate them.
*that* is why everyone cares.
And *that* is where their anger should be directed.
Nobody cared about this 10 years ago. But suddenly a bunch of virtue signaling assholes got involved and turned it into a big deal. So now it's a big deal.

I mean I guess, but that’s what I always meant so… Adults can do as they please as long as they pay for it themselves. Counseling is a different story and can be covered IMO.
Yeah, well, if you make issues into public policy positions, you don't get to whine when the public gets involved.
That is laugh out loud funny.
Video should have had a seatbelt warning. I almost fell out of the chair laughing.
Hopefully funny comedy will make a comeback.
Transgender Women may be the only Politically Correct group that can define what a woman is.
Because somehow they think, that despite being born with a penis, they are really female.
I am exceedingly curious, then, to know what a woman is.
And why they believe they are one.

The real question is, why have so many come down with this mental illness?
Have humans "evolved" into non reproductive retards?
Is this what happens when parental rights are taken away by the government school system?
Perhaps, due to the end of the family, "it takes a village" don't ya know.
Could it be true evil at work?

Part overpopulation pressure and part "fad".
It's easy to tell the difference.
If they cut off or otherwise surgically mutilate their gonads they are a result of overpopulation pressure.
If they don't, they are either following a "fad" or trying to rape little girls.

The AIDS epidemic of the 1980s was a global public health crisis characterized by a rapid spread of HIV, leading to widespread fear, stigma, and discrimination. Initially, the disease was primarily identified among homosexual men, but it soon became clear that other groups, including intravenous drug users and individuals who received contaminated blood transfusions, were also at risk.

I know both gay men and lesbian women.
The ones I know are 100% normal, and do not define themselves on this alone.
No one but their friends know of their preference, and they don't try to force acceptance onto others.
Transgenders are different.
Very few appear credible as members of the opposite sex. And I wonder why they imagine they will be treated better as a faux man or faux woman.
And although I don't have statistics, offhand it seems to me Transgenders are more likely than most to go off on a rage and mass murder school children. So yes, they concern me.
