    This thread is about kids medically transitioning, by the time they’re undergoing puberty they’re teens or preteens. Not like six year olds who want to do ballet or whatever.

      The point is people will allow (force) their children to do ballet, even at young ages, despite the consequences. Those same people will also say that older children can’t consent to gender affirming care. It’s hypocracy.

        Uh, do you want to rephrase that, because it sounds like you’re mad you can’t fuck kids.

            No, that was me giving them the chance to clarify what they meant if their comment wasn’t them huffing about how preteens/teens can medically transition but not have sex with adults.

            Anyway, as someone who is trans and used to be a kid, knowing your gender isn’t really anything like having sex.

      • Wtf? The fact that you are comfortable conflating those two wildly different topics is concerning.

        First of all, being put on hormone therapy isn’t a child deciding their own gender. It is pausing puberty until they are old enough to make an informed decision about their own health and identity.

        Secondly, what does gender identity have to do with pedophillia? Gender affirming care is all about harm reduction, not sexualizing literal children…

          Republicans are opposed to gender-affirming care for teenagers because it makes some of the teens they want to fuck unfuckable in their eyes.
