    Will this finally settle the debate so we can focus on more pressing issues?

      It has settled the debate - our government hates trans people, and is actively withholding our human rights and going out of its way to harm us.

      If that isn’t a pressing issue to you, you are part of the problem and a transphobe.

      No because this was clearly the wrong decision to come to.

      #SorryNotSorry you can’t silence the LGBT community that easily.

      Is your life a debate to be settled? Could you kill yourself and settle that debate for me?

      God no. People made their mind up that children should be able to permanently fuck up their body and hormones.

      That’s a hill they will die on.

        Their bodies get “fucked up” by hormones if they do nothing. We all get “fucked up” on hormones to some extent, it’s just that puberty blockers allow more opportunity to decide which way to get “fucked up.” If you truly wanted to help “brainwashed trenders” not “fuck up their bodies,” you’d support puberty blockers. It gives them the most time to decide with as few side effects as possible.

        You think transitioning is what happens when treatment fails? You think it’s some sort of unfortunate outcome? The data paints a clear picture: transition is the best outcome for us. No other treatment works, and as far as treatments for psychological phenomenon go, it’s one of the best.

        I wish I could say you’re dying on a hill, but you’re not. You’re throwing screaming children into a pit and burning them alive. You’ll face no consequence for your humble contribution outside of possible guilt, but nothing will undo the harm.
