The T is apparently really REALLY passionate about children.

They're really passionate about the idea that children can consent to life-altering procedures.

I think they're passionate about all aspects of children, frankly.

Anyone who greatly concerns themselves with the gender or sexuality of children should be shot into the fucking sun, imho.

If they can convince people that children can consent to life-altering procedures then the next step is to convince people children can consent to sex with adults.

Christ you're right. I hadn't really seen how this was all connected before but there it is.

Agreed, that's a really good way of putting it. "Children are capable of consenting in the same way that adults are, to irreversible, untested medical interventions!" ties in well with "Children are capable of consenting to anything an adult can!" With no regard for stages of cognitive development or anything. The former is a very popular belief, currently, much more so than the latter, but some people are getting there on both... like that disgusting article someone posted the other day, about deliberately exposing children to kink exhibitions at pride parades.
