That means anyone who supports the Trans Agenda also supports calling people psychopaths without a medical confirmation. Touche, dear gangsters.

If they want to be as unhappy as everyone else, they are welcome

The trans agenda is not that simple. I support their right to exist. I am fully against the pipeline to trans that I've seen in schools. You are only allowed to encourage a confused teenager, if you push back at all you are fired.

They don't need pushed, or influenced, or anything other than a safe space to be themselves, and find out what that means to them. People who are atypical already have plenty of pushback from everyday society, I don't think we need to worry about making someone trans when they're not.

I have two young male children, who both prefer playing with girls to playing with boys. When we casually mentioned that some boys have vaginas and some girls have penises, they separately decided that each of them is, in fact, a boy who like to play with girls. Because that's who they are, and I doubt we could convince them otherwise.

My stance is as they say in Poland.

Not my monkeys, not my circus. I just dont care.

It doesn't affect me in the slightest, other than a minimal amount of the taxes i pay go towards treatment of their illness. Although, i find it slightly hypocritical that they are allowed to start changing gender before 18. Would seem that many other things should be allowed before 18 aswell in that case.

I can't speak as to Polish law, but kids are allowed to do quite a bit before the age of 18 in the US. Going on puberty blockers - to delay a puberty that could damn well be an irreversible scar on the psyche - is hardly an opening for a shakeup of the legal position of minors.

Not Polish, its just a Polish saying.

I'm not convinced that a kid can make that judgement. Certainly not before puberty. But that might just be my own unwavering feeling of comfort in my own sex talking.

If a doctor makes a judgement of it, then my opinion doesn't matter.

Puberty blockers aren't OTC, they're prescribed by doctors. The kid's not making the judgement so much as they're bringing up the medical issue to a professional.

I was diagnosed with depression at a fairly young age, just entering into my teens, but I only got in to see a psych to begin with because I was worried enough to self-advocate. Can't really imagine what it would be like if I was told that I was too young to understand depression and turned out on my metaphorical ass.
