Puberty blockers are not elective surgery, and they are reversible.
Masks do work as they are designed to work. They are not designed to "block the virus" and no medical professional has ever claimed they are. They are designed to reduce the chances of the virus getting into your body. No one ever claimed they block the virus. No one ever claimed they made anyone immune to infection, or that they are impenetrable. More to the point: Medical professionals wore cloth masks when dealing with infected people every day before and after the pandemic. Why do you think they did this? Do you think that in spite of dedicating their lives to educating themselves on and understanding their profession of healthcare, a profession that they work every day of their lives, that they are actually just dumber than you are about how viruses work?
Do you wear a seatbelt when you drive your car? Are you aware that more than half of the people killed in car accidents each year are wearing seatbelts? Does this mean seatbelts don't work?
Masks don't do crap to stop the spread of viruses to the general public. They work to some degree to stop the surgical staff bending over someone's open abdomen from spewing spittle and boogers into the incision, but they still don't stop viruses. Masks are as effective at stopping viruses as chain-link fences are at stopping mosquitoes.
Why do I think nurses and doctors wore masks when they came into contact with hundreds of sick people every day? If masks were so wonderful, why weren't they wearing them when they were exposed to OTHER sick people with OTHER airborne contagions?
Everyone wore masks made out of paper or t-shirt material. They did nothing and served as woke decorations only. Just ask anyone that went through Mark V gas-mask training in the military what's required of an effective air filtration system. T-shirt's don't hack it.
But mask wearing is a really good sign of the obedient tool. Unless the mask says "Let's Go Brandon". Then they apparently don't work and peopel wearing them can be arbitrarily thrown off airplanes at the whim of the Travel Gauleiters monitoring the aircraft cabin.
Do you know that many people in Los Angeles are so stupid they wear a diaper over their faces when they are alone in their own car with the windows closed?
Since the disease has been proven to be treatable, what is the point in mask-fascism now?
Back to the thread topic:
Puberty is an essential step between childhood and physical adult maturity and more importantly a major psychological and social change in the adolescent's development. Sure, puberty blocking MAY be "reversible", but not the psychological effects of going through puberty at 19 when all their peers went through the proper social adjustments a third of a lifetime earlier, together. Interfering with a body's natural and healthy growth is "harm" by any definition. There's no valid reason to interfere with healthy normal growth. It should be celebrated and encouraged, not "blocked".
A child with a delusion that it should be the other sex isn't being helped when parents and quacks and teachers and public officials seek to feed the delusion rather than confronting it.
