Putting children on hormone blockers is abuse!

We used to not be able to stop puberty and allow children a choice. Now we can. They can always go through puberty later if they make the choice to be cis.

Nope puberty blockers destroy bone density and cause an IQ drop of up to 10 points and both things are not reversible.

Puberty is a complex process in which multiple things have to happen at the same time. If you stop it it can't happen again later, the human body clock simply doesn't work like that.

I had puberty 3 times yesterday.

It's still extremely harmful. Look at Jazz Jennings. He went on puberty blockers and therefore only ever grew a micro-penis. When he eventually got surgery to get a "vagina", he didn't have enough penile tissue to turn it inside out to make a neo-vag. The poor kid had to go through multiple surgeries, take skin off his thighs, and be in constant pressure/pain. He also will never have an orgasm, never have children, doesn't know what sexual stimulation or arousal is, etc.

Even if he didn't get the surgery and changed his mind, he'd still have a micro-penis and diminished sexual maturity/arousal.

And to top that off, he'll never be a woman no matter how many surgeries he gets. There is no surgery that can turn a male into a fully functional female, or vice versa. He still looks like a boy, even after all that. Telling children they can change sex is a lie.

It's a horrible life.

what 'choice'? You're either born with a penis or born with a vagina. Delusional attempts by liberal idiots only result in mental illness, insanity, and suicide.

stopping puberty is child abuse Any parent who does should have their children taken from them and the parents summarily executed for child sex crimes.

I'm willing to accept two different scenarios: one where gender and sex are the same thing, and another where transgenderism exists along side transracialism, trans-specism, and even people who identify as an adjective (such as orange) for an infinitely-brief lapse of time.

I identify as the president of the united states, so don't stop me from having a sleepover in the white house.

That's what we call "stunting growth".

People think "puberty blockers" work like the pause button on their Nintendo switch.

Just start and stop whenever you want with no consequences whatsoever.

Don't argue with science.

It sounds like you're promoting child abuse to me because delaying puberty until 20 does not have the same result as puberty occurring naturally at 12.

That's not how it works. PB's have been shown to have some pretty severe side effects including long lasting problems with bone density and who knows what else, all to chase after something that they can never truly achieve. If you're fully grown, as in 25+, then go for it, but medically unnecessary/cosmetic drugs and surgeries should be a hard NO for kids.
