MODERATORS
It's different to voting though.
Puberty blockers have been used for decades with no ill effect. It literally just delays puberty, which is irreversible once a person starts to go through it. It's much safer to delay puberty in children who identify as trans, allow their brains to develop, and have them get treatment so that their mental health is kept healthy.
Personally, I think listening to the trans community on this and having them give advice on how to manage trans kids is better than leaving it to general society who won't understand the emotional trauma involved. There's a reason why suicide rates are high with trans kids.
I would associate it moreso with children trying to tell adults about the priest who keeps touching them but end up being dismissed because they're kids. We ignore our children's voices to our own detriment.
And listening to doctors on this. Apparently the vast majority of pediatricians recommending puberty blockers for trans kids since it prevents suicide doesn't matter.
Since when has "listening to doctors" been an American trait?
I don't know. They always put it in the pharmaceutical commercials that are only legal in the U.S. and New Zealand.
taps nose so they don't get sued
People, Americans anyway, are very good at doing what the TV tells them to do, which always makes me wonder how often doctors are plagued with patients saying, "Doctor, is Phabulux right for me?" Completely out of the blue and unrelated to whatever they're at the doctor about.
I'd never really thought about it that way. Must be a serious problem though.
