The argument against is it isn't truth.

The American guidelines say constant therapy is needed not just surgery.

Most other countries practice "watchful waiting" not affirmation.

The dutch protocol was based mostly on boys who were gender non conforming from birth, not girls and not kids who suddenly started identifying as trans in adolescence or older.

The best research shows transition masks people less happy and mental health worse. Most other research is junk, they don't follow people up.
