I'm not a resident of the US but hope this will make those over here in the UK change their minds on what they've been doing recently.
Lets hope the support for all this tran BS quickly diminishes
Maybe the compromise could be passing a measure that allows adults who feel like they shouldn't have gotten treatment as a child to go after the physician who performed/prescribed surgeries and or "treatments" when they were children and didn't get a say.
Doctors would really think twice before exploring such options with the dramatic mom who looks to have pageant syndrome trying to live vicariously through her child.

Wedge Issue
The fundamental assumptions/beliefs among several posters responding here is that trans kids don’t have rights over their bodies. The associated belief is that trans people should be treated as second-class citizens, required to conform to the expressions of gender that the usual suspects here advocate for.

It’s not really hard for me, I want the government to have as little control over our lives as possible.
The assertions here that teams of medical professionals regularly abuse children is ... just absurd to me.
If a treatment is available, and administered according to the best standards medical science has, that is up to the individual.
The case of child abuse is far more prevalent among trans kids who are absolutely forbidden to be free in their gender expression and identity.

How familiar have you made yourself with the transition process that isn’t part of anti-trans activism?
Abuse is the word being applied here. How much of your concern about current medical understanding is “we just don’t know?”
You really do seem to believe that the transition process works differently than it does. I’ll get you some good links and post here or in a follow up post.

Absolutely agreed.
Here’s all I’m advocating for ... allow people to be who they are and do what they want as long as no one is harmed.
