    I really hate trans health care. It’s just health care. If they ain’t hurting anyone, leave them alone. Jesus.

      Terf Island: we already fucked off so hard we aren’t even in the EU anymore. That’s the maximum amount of fuck off we can manage

    I kind of get it, but maybe I also don’t fully understand what trans health care for kids is all about. (I’m not against it btw)

    You can’t get a tattoo before you’re 18 because that’s (somewhat) permanent. Does trans care interfere with puberty in a way that’s irreversible?

    I also realize what I just typed is probably comparing apples to oranges… maybe the people passing these laws are thinking the kids will grow up and change their minds - does that actually happen? (I doubt it, but just asking because I don’t know.)

      Kids under 18 aren’t legally able to start hormone therapy or get surgery. The most they can get is puberty blockers and therapy. Ppl who complain about Trans kids changing their mind are full of shit. Everything a minor receives as Trans health care is reasonable, safe, and reversible

      Puberty itself is full of irreversible changes. Having puberty blockers available to trans youth is important to prevent their bodies from making changes they don’t want, and is reversible later.
