Despite ACLU win in lower court, an appeal by the state means transgender kids and their families will feel the devastating effects of the ban.

    Let kids decide when theyre ready to drink and drive. They know themselves better than you know them.

      The difference is that if ANYONE drinks and drives, there is a high chance of harming another. No one else is harmed, or even affected atll by someone transitioning. And the regret/detransition rate is astonishingly low. Never mind thr fact that puberty blockers and all options available to minors is reveraable.

      You are simply just trying to regulate what people do with their own body.

        My god you are a fucking smoothbrain. If we dont let kids drink or drive we sure as fuck shouldnt let them try and physically alter their sex organs or their hormones. And the regret rate and suicide rate is notoriously high what the fuck are you even saying.

          You are falling for clickbait outrage headlines instead of the actual data. 1% of people that get gender surgery experince regret.

          Have you ever stopped to consider social stigma and the things you are saying why people experince regret? Societal pressure is immense for trans folk.

          Honestly, if you really are considered about people’s mental health. Then listen to psychology and let them transition in peace. It’s clinically proven to have the best outcomes.

          You can’t have it both ways. Do you want people’s mental health to improve, or do you want to ignore what psychiatrists suggest?
