That same "hoop" that all of us had "jump through" to qualify for voting, getting married, joining the military, drinking, smoking, getting a tattoo, making any important decisions for ourselves, based on laws created by society: Becoming an adult.

Well I have some great news for you guys:

Do you feel the same way [that government should have no say about family decisions to alter a child's genitals] about "female circumcision" (removal of much of the genitals) done as a religious practice in parts of Africa?

You're a slowpony.

Someone else already posted that exact same link a few pages back, and I refuted it with several other sources I found online.
No one responded to my refutation, probably because it got lost in the sea of your BS posts.

That page equivocates by first stating no one under 18 is getting the surgeries, then stating in the summary:

• Gender reassignment surgery is typically only available to those 18 and older in the United States.

The **** all does that have to do with trans issues?

No where do I claim otherwise Trolly.

We are arguing because you keep telling me that society (individuals) have no role in areas like THAT which is what we are arguing over.

Lol, another refusal to answer.

It has to do with whether the government should have a say in any genital surgeries being done on children. Either you think the government should have a say in them, or you think they shouldn't.

You're welcome to answer this question instead, if you will give it a YES or NO, with no other equivocation.

Do you think the government should have a role in deciding whether surgery should be done on the genitals of a child?

Ritual genital mutilation has nothing to do with trans issues. Neither does the malaria vaccine. It’s all random deflections because that’s all you’ve got.

'Coming out as trans' has never been a death sentence. On the other hand, in Iran, gay men can only avoid the death sentence by agreeing to be transed, to 'trans away the gay' as Americans like to put it. The Iranian regime is highly praised by British and US trans activists, not surprisingly. The British trans activist org Stonewall is greatly in favour of the mad mullahs of Tehran for their supposedly enlightened views.

In your opinion. But my most recent direct question didn't mention ritual genital mutilation, it was a pretty general question.

Great to hear about Boston Children's Hospital. I guess...it is very odd they are addressing the issue at all. Why would a children's hospital be doing any procedures on someone who is over 18? If that truly is their policy, I don't understand why they are in the business of gender affirmation surgery at all. Surgeries done on adults would be better handled in a hospital for adults. If a place labeled "Children's Hospital" is doing any of these surgeries, people are going to reasonably assume that they are being done on children, leading to confusion and opportunities for protest that could be easily avoided.

I just read the page. It says "chest surgery" may be done at age 15 with parental consent. So it's not all good news.

Can you post some support for the statement that American and British advocates for transgender rights support policies that force gay men to live as women?

I'm no expert on children's hospitals, but I suspect that many of them treat adults (especially young adults), even if they specialize in the treatment of children.

Yes, they probably do. But do you agree that it would avoid unwanted controversy to have such surgeries done at a regular adult hospital?

I think this is a non issue.

This is some real chutzpah. One way to avoid controversy is to not spin wild takes of children getting gender reassignment surgeries on a whim.

Trans ppl are the worst! This is where we go to be bigoted pricks right?
