Emma Basques was on blockers for two years. Then, after she turned 13 in October of last year, a doctor in the Portland, Ore., suburb where her family had moved, prescribed estrogen, starting her transition. It had become increasingly awkward to feel left behind as her classmates physically matured. And she felt confident that she was ready.

I thought children under-18 never had hormone therapy? Has the TRA-leaning media been lying to us all?

Certainly seems that the New York Times may have put themselves in an awkward position. Can just see the cope and seethe article now: Puberty blockers cause osteoporosis in children, and here’s why that’s a good thing.

Like a politician during an election year, but pay no mind to that because fuck you and stop being a transphobe!

“This never happens” and then it mysteriously happens sometimes. Disclaimer, I’m not in the USA but I assume there it’s even much easier in my country. Depends whether someone will find a sketchy doctor or a drug dealer groomer to share the hormone theraphy resources.

I knew a girl who was under 18 and already complained about some side effects of hormone therapy (being an FTM).

The narrative that disabled and retarded people are literally superior to normal people is already a thing, lol, and a thing that is pushed by these same people. It's impossible to satirize trannies, since they have genuinely reached a point where they are beyond satire. More absurd concepts do not exist than shit like otherkin.

It’s just the logical conclusion of intersectionality. The more victimhood categories you can claim as your own the higher up the progressive stack you can climb. You’re going to have to bend the knee to the disabled, POC, lesbian, transgender, autist, refugee because for twenty-plus years that is exactly what the proponents of this intersectional nonsense have been setting up. They created a fucking monster that is now rampaging through everything, from education to government and media - and we probably have a ways to go before the masses catch on (although they may be learning as companies like Disney, Warner Brothers and Paramount lose money backing this stuff thinking that the masses want films and TV featuring this)
