I want universal healthcare and even UBI, but this shit is just child abuse.
Edit to add: if you want to cut your dick off and call yourself a girl as an adult, I don’t care. If you convince your kids doctor to chemically castrate them, you should go to jail.
Doctors used to recommend all kinds of stupid shit. Lobotomies, literally transfusing COWS MILK into people because it’s white and will obviously make white blood cells.
Are you talking about medically delaying puberty? You’re aware that’s done with cis kids more often than trans kids, right?
I don’t see how it’s child abuse when prescribed to a minor with gender dysphoria, but totally fine when it’s a minor with precocious puberty.
For many trans people, having the option to postpone irrevocable changes brought on by puberty has massive mental health benefits for the rest of their lives. I feel like you have to be pretty jaded and dismissive to just categorize that as abuse out of hand.
If you’re going to implicitly compare something like doctors abusing peoples trust to push things like opiates onto the population as a whole to providing specialized healthcare to a percent of a percent of the population, you’ve already succumb to brain rot and there will be no productive conversation to be had. Cheers, man.
We don’t trust people under 21 with alcohol that affects them for a few hours. Letting kids make life altering decisions is irresponsible.
Yeah, but I trust their doctors and their recommendations.
Doctors do shit for money.
They’ll recommend whatever the parent asks for.

They’re wrong about this, too.

Hahahahahaha! Ok buddy
Good God!
You’ve completely changed my mind!
I’m putting my kids on puberty blockers right now!
Nice edit.
You told me to huff paint

I still stand by my original comment, and had no intentions of hiding it, more I figured the mods wouldn’t like it.
Additionally, I said more paint, a small but significant distinction.
You are right we don’t trust kids. That is why doctors are involved.
