"Being transitioned" removes agency from people who fight for years for this. You have been shown across this thread that vanishingly few even gain access to any kind of medical support until their late teens and still you insist on lying, pretending that "kids" are being transitioned against their will -- meanwhile in reality trans teens are crying out at the 5+ year long waiting lists just for access to clinics.

You have to turn your back on the trans children who grew into adults and pretend they don't exist to spin this lie where transition is a verb you apply to other people rather than a choice that someone makes for themselves.



Vanishingly small numbers? There are hundreds of teens who get surgeries and thousands who get drugs.

Your claim that it all only happens because of these kids agencies is unsubstantiated.

How do you explain the doubling of numbers of kids who say they are trans?

And you claim nobody ever regrets transitioning, which is a lie.
