Child abuse. It's simply pure child abuse. Children have incredibly vague ideas about themselves that change radically with age. We don't put special emphasis on a child saying he wants to be a firefighter, and yet children are allowed to have their bodies radically altered. This started with circumcision. We don't have real state protections for bodily autonomy of children, IMO, and that allowed precedent for this kind of thing. We need strict body autonomy laws to protect children until they reach age of majority.

I actually agree with you for once.

Yeah. Some fathers do not want to support their children financially. Shameful.

Some fathers don't want their sons sterilised because their homophobic ex freaked out at the boy singing along to Frozen. Transphobes.

Some fathers have to be forced to support their children. This is just one of the reasons I like DNA technology so much.

Nems, you're not replying in relevant context. Did you just have a stroke?

Well, pupils are equal. I can speak. I seem OK. Thanks for asking. How are you this morning? Not too bad for August.

Excellent, I just thought a quick wellness check was in order and would be considerate of me. All is well, thank you for asking. I'm hoping you have a splendid August day!
