*shrugs* Well, someone has to keep him on the straight and narrow path....wait, let me re-write that: theYou're the antacid to his vitriol?
Well, technically a path is bi-directional...so...the bi and narrow path?*shrugs* Well, someone has to keep him on the straight and narrow path....wait, let me re-write that: thestraightgay and narrow path.
There, fixed it.
Well, technically a path is bi-directional...so...the bi and narrow path?
Eh, keep it gay, gay's good!
Umm...no, it's not.
Right, so the puberty blockers and the breast removal surgery...
You keep saying this, but I'm not seeing the point in the context of what you're quoting...
Ah, ok, so a teenager doing something to stop the mental torture associated with having something on their body that doesn't fit who they are is disfigurement, but to put a foreign object into their body to give them the illusion of making that area bigger is not? That's totally not hypocritical...
Again, the point of posting this?
Yes, please, READ the things you post, because...scary logic.
In this instance, I disagree, this is one surgery that can instantaneously ease suffering for someone,
and there IS a suitable option should they regret it.
Would you rather have a dead teenager who couldn't bear the pain of living in a body that isn't who they are, or a teenager alive and more balanced because they did something to help align their body with who they are?
Trans males are male and they do indeed have them, hence the need to remove them.
Because the studies performed are always discredited as having too low of a study group, but trans people are such a small percentage of the population that larger study groups are near impossible...so...those studies will continue to be discredited,
in spite of the fact that they continuously show an exceptionally low level of regret amongst trans males who have top surgery.
Why? Because a male wants rid of decidedly female secondary sexual characteristics? Would you say the same to a teenage boy with gynocomastia? Sorry, kid, you can't get rid of those, you're mutilating your body!
...again with the ignorance.
I truly hope when we look back on this actual insanity it never happens again.I truly hope one day you can educate yourself on what trans actually is, because your view of it is so far off base.
I think what he's trying to say is that (a) there are only two sexes (male & female) and that gender is irrevocably connected to sex.
To borrow a quote from The Wire, "Serafin would rather live in shit than admit to the world that he's wrong about something."
Which is proven time and time again not to be true, but I appreciate his stubbornness. The need to constantly repeat it, though, is lost on me.
Fair point, stubborn knows no bounds.
Definitely is.
So you say...Yes????
We only have biological men and women
Because you're saying one is different from the other, they simply aren't.I’m against all of it and believe all of it should be illegal, so not understanding your post.
Double your pleasure, double your fun, double the wrongness with double-messages...Only biological men and women
But it is correct
No it can’t. But it’s ruining lives of people now that they are adults realizing they made a mistake.
...and yet they can still be men or women, reproduction does not make them more or less of a man or woman.And with the drugs and surgery they can never be what they really are completely ever again.
...yet you all on the right say it's the mental health professionals that are pushing more and more kids into it. So...make up your minds?And it’s why we have rational mental help people for this and other issues that help people.
No, they aren't.They are women pretending to be men. It’s common sense.
lol, ok.Usually the study groups are paid by people that have a motivation to make millions off butchering children.
Well, yeah, right wing scare sites don't really dabble in fact.Not from what I’m seeing.
...you think gynocomastia is caused by improper diet? Mmmkay. Pretty big difference between man boobs and breasts, hon.Not even remotely the same, it’s a actual medical problem like cancer a boy should not have become of environmental factors and their diet.
Correct, but something they grew naturally and therefore is a part of their body they're supposed to have...so by your own logic it's mutilation to remove them.Quote: is an increase in the amount of breast gland tissue in boys or men, caused by an imbalance of the hormones estrogen and testosterone.
I hate to break it to you, but this isn't some "plague" happening, trans people have always existed, it's just that now the right has decided to make it the cause of the moment, so *gasp* look at these atrocities as people have access to the help they need!Being correct
I truly hope when we look back on this actual insanity it never happens again.
It just isn't...those clinics treat gender dysphoria, they don't treat it with genital surgery on minors.
It simply isn't a thing,
no matter how many right wing scare sites crop up telling everyone otherwise.
Also, that gender mapping project has successfully turned numerous clinics and childrens hospitals into targets of threats of violence, so great job by that group.
Now hospitals that treat everything are having to go on alert because right wing morons don't understand what it is to treat gender dysphoria in minors.
So you say...
Because you're saying one is different from the other, they simply aren't.
Double your pleasure, double your fun, double the wrongness with double-messages...
Again, highlighting select cases where people regretted transitioning does not mean it's not overwhelmingly successful for the vast majority of trans people.
...and yet they can still be men or women, reproduction does not make them more or less of a man or woman.
...yet you all on the right say it's the mental health professionals that are pushing more and more kids into it. So...make up your minds?
No, they aren't.

Because they are learning about the damage being done to children. At least the lockdowns and school shutdowns did some goodit's just that now the right has decided to make it the cause of the moment, so *gasp* look at these atrocities as people have access to the help they need!
Yes they do!
It's not, you just proved it.It is
No.You mean facts
Yes, saving children by calling in bomb threats on hospitals that house cancer patients, kids going in for dialysis, chronically ill children, children getting transplants. SO helpful to do that all because the right wing doesn't know what it is to treat gender dysphoria.Saved children. And thank you.
...and they don't...Don’t butcher children for money, just don’t butcher children
They just aren't...I know
Common sense, they are.
It must be fun living in opposite land.I’ll triple my rightness 😂
...because no one is "hurting" these children.And yet no actual proof to show hurting children ever is a plus.
It's easy to spin it when it matches your narrative, isn't it?And yet the stories coming out from the butchered are saying otherwise
Ah, ok. So it's the industry's fault until it's the answer you need to use to spin your story, then it's a matter of just doing your research. Got it.As we know every field from trash man to president has bad people. It’s up to parents to find the ones who can do the job they are hired to do properly. Mind made up!
Forgot the n't there.They are
I could never grasp the mindset of someone who jumps into something knowing nothing about it at all and proceeds to try to say what is and isn't right in that subject. But ok.See, keep saying that and you will get it eventually 😂
No, you even showed they don't.In this case they do.
In that rare case, sure, but most causes of gynecomastia are not caused by outside factors, hence, naturally occurring.Partially yes, no actually I know, because of a family member and the doctor that treated him. Hormones in meat, pesticides in foods, poor eating habits, our environment in general.
In that case, correct, in most others, no.No it’s not grown naturally.
No it isn't, this is about the subject of the moment for the right. It's all it's ever been about. They'll find a shiny new subject soon and start pouncing on that, but trans people will still be trans people, trans children will still be trans children, and no amount of spreading false information and making bomb threats is going to change that. As much as the right loves to incorrect people on this issue (thanks, Steve Hofstetter, stealing your term there), it's just not something that is happening in the way they say it is, and forcing false narratives isn't going to make it so.This isn’t about trans existence and how long or stopping grown adults from being Tran. This is about disfigurement of children.
That's true, denial of service to get help in a critical need is damaging children.Because they are learning about the damage being done to children. At least the lockdowns and school shutdowns did some good
17 with parental approval, that's still technically a minor, yes, but you're making it sound like they're performing genital surgery
(which a hysterectomy isn't...) on children.
That's just not the case.
I will say I feel it should just be 18+
and it's a bit iffy at 17, yes, but to go from "OMG, they're mutilating children!!"
to "meh, I don't care, you're an adult do what you want"
just because they include 17 (with parental consent), then you're really grasping at straws for the shock factor.
So, no, they aren't performing genital surgery on children, thanks for proving that.
It's not, you just proved it.

And they should be found and arrested. And then the hospital staff with all involved with hurting children should be next.
Given today's political environment, there ain't a jury in America that'd convict.
It really is like smacking your head against a wall with him, eh @Webster? Astounding levels of ignorance and stubbornness.
What the hell do the Hodge twins know about gender affirming care? Couple of idiots.
Also to call it a mental illness is disgustingly dismissive.
