Biden says efforts to restrict transgender rights ‘close to sinful’

You equated trans decisions with picking a sport. Lol

And yes bottom surgery is done on minors
You went with the most significant decision with all transition decisions.

Not the minors that generally first get to decide whether they are going to play soccer.

Show that it has been done on lets say more than 10 people under 17.

Driving is a major decision. Hell even things like dancing and football can be decisions that lead to lifelong consequences.
 
Biden is a demented neanderthal hell-bent on destroying the USA. Anything he says has no worth.
Unfortunately, the record doesn't agree with you on that at all. There's lots of evidence Biden is trying to help America. A lot of posters will even provide evidence to back up arguments. Otherwise they're just blurts.

How about 56 kids? Would that be enough?
 
All I do is cite evidence. I support banning it except for clinical trials like the nation that invented this procedure and has the most experience with it
That same nation allows parents to perform those surgeries on intersexed babies, children without any medical need.
 
Let's make this about me


I care deeply for these kids


They are just pawns to you in your political agenda

Collateral damage

Based on your own words, you want to erase them.
 
This is being used by Republicans to stop healthcare for adult transgenders and prevent transgender children from participating in society through sports and bathroom laws.

Otherwise, these countires are not banning the process altogether, as American laws are doing.
no but they are narrowing the use to "research purposes" ( if i got the article correct). Basically it's saying the child knows best for themselves - which goes against every aspect of child development psych, and even law that differentiated between minors and adults because of their ability to reason . Kids cant vote or drink for ex.- nobody objects to that.

Dr. Diana Tordoff, often cited in support of giving cross-sex hormones to teenagers, has admitted that patients at Seattle Children’s Hospital gender clinic with “depression, anxiety, or suicidal thoughts” are “not precluded access” to treatments.
Kids dont "know" whom they are.
they dont have a fully defined personality and identity. It took me into my 20's before i got past the usual teen angst.
And if there are underlying psych problems - all the more reason they have to be addressed fully before you start puberty blockers or sex change operations.. Both are not really "reversible" as claimed.

I thought you guys were big on the parent knowing best. Remember the parents?
 
I apologize to the families of these children who have "patriots" telling them how to raise their families. I'm embarrassed that people are so slimy.
But I proved you wrong on the facts


Hahahahaha
 
This

The Komodo analysis of insurance claims found 56 genital surgeries, including vaginoplasty and other procedures, among patients ages 13 to 17 with a prior gender dysphoria diagnosis from 2019 to 2021.

Is not the evidence you think it is. Do you think that any of these could have been due to being intersexed? What is "other procedures"? I specifically asked for under 17, because l don't have a problem with someone getting that surgery at 17 with parental signoff or as declared an emancipated minor since I could join the military at 17 with the same conditions. That is a group of surgeries.

These are the possible surgeries those could be.

well that's under attack as well/ I cant help but think of the Alice Cooper song "18"

I've got a
Baby's brain and an old man's heart
Took eighteen years to get this far
Don't always know what I'm talkin' about
Feels like I'm livin' in the middle of doubt
'Cause I'm
Eighteen
I get confused every day
Eighteen
I just don't know what to say


Boston Children's Hospital is one of the hospitals that currently offers gender reassignment surgery to minors. "The Center for Gender Surgery at Boston Children's Hospital offers gender affirmation surgery services to eligible adolescents and young adults who are ready to take this step," their website reads in promotion of sex change surgeries for minors.
 
No, its not. That's far worse than allowing a 16/17 year old to choose to take hormones because they are transgender. It doesn't give the person any choice in their own body.
Your opinion is noted

You claim their website reads "in promotion of sex change surgeries for minors". Are you sure you wrote that correctly? Got a link?
