Ah but look at the study again chosen because it was published by the government for validation.

Teenagers did receive sex change operation under gender care provided. I think it is exactly the information conservatives were looking for. The do care where the money is coming for this.

I just think it sets off conservatives because the echo chambers they listened to say this gender care was being provided by these services while those suffering from gender dysphoria were minors. But the study found no facility offering such surgeries to minors. Conservatives again were being lied to by the same grifters selling them phone plans.

These sex changes surgeries have been provided to teens suffer from gender dysphoria for a while.

As iterated before, GOP politicians only recently have been simply revving their Christian voter base to re-energize them with the current poor state of confidence in the Conservative Party. Essentially they need sheep who don’t question.

I think the religious revival on the right is in response to the gender ideology being pushed on kids. The religiosity has always been there but segments of society are recoiling as school kids are taking field trips to drag shows and almost every media is promoting and celebrating it.

What's really sad is that the transgender movement went full retard. Instead of seeking acceptance they wanted social promotion and celebration, but now they will likely get nothing.

What's funny is that this reactionary fellow doesn't seem to perceive the irony in this statement he is making about the transgender movement.... as he endorses fascism yet again

Self-awareness: not a strong suit

I don’t think celebration was something they asked for, but it was something they received regardless

And that conditions them to want to talk about it more. Talk about it, receive praise, repeat

Also, I hear that Muslim and old school Catholic Hispanic communities push back against it while probably still be registered left. And I’m not expert on black culture, but due to what I perceive as a macho and hypermasculine attitude especially among young black men from poor communities, they would push back against it as well

I paid attention to many of the reports of assault of trans people, and they were often from the black community to black trans people

I think there is too much room for error and incompetence when it comes to these things. I have known several people over the course of my life with mental health issues and the counselors and doctors they went to made things objectively worse for them, because their care is only as good as their provider. And having managed physicians and clinics for almost a decade, I can say that there are lots of really poor quality physicians out there.

Not to mention self reported data is not nearly as ironclad as we'd like to believe, but tangential.

That being said, I rarely support legislation that limits personal freedoms that don't infringe on the rights of others, but I will share my opinions as much as I please, and I think that because young people are trying to navigate so many facets of growing up, I err on the side of caution. I think it's incredibly shortsighted to allow children the right to make permanent, life-altering medical decisions during a time when they are still developing. I've read dozens of (admittedly anecdotal) stories of people who had serious regrets about transitioning at a young age and the haphazard process they went through, and now are stuck with irreversible changes. Granted there are probably a lot of people that transition and are perfectly happy until the day they die, but I'd much rather see that occur when those individuals become adults, than targeted efforts at them when they are fucking 10 years old. When I was 10 years old, I was a moron. Heaven forbid I was given the opportunity to make some massive life decision at that age. It's just fucked up.

I certainly hope the next big culture war republicans take on is male circumcision, it's far more common than trans and almost nobody consents to it

We can be done with circumcision, but if that's your argument, its a weak one. You might be removing some skin, but the penis is fully functional, and might even be more hygienic anyway. If circumcision removed the whole head of the penis, maybe
