Honestly, “children getting SRS” is such a fucking braindead take. You can’t even get noncritical surgery until you’re at least 18 in most countries. Puberty blockers are safe and effective, so is HRT.

Trans minors deserve medical treatment, because the alternative (living life in a body “ruined” by puberty) is much, much worse and carries a high suicide risk and also lifelong severe body image issues.

I don’t want anyone to suffer the same fate. I don’t want anyone to hate themselves for what their body is or became. I stand with trans kids and I’ll gladly fight you on that, anytime. Fuck bigots 🖕

    It’s incomprehensible that religious conservatives (or conservatives in general because, let’s be real, none of them truly live by any religious tenets) care more about what’s in people’s pants, who people love, and making sure the number of unwanted babies keeps breaking records rather than actual, real, tangible help for anybody but themselves. They’re absolutely the worst sacks of shit who have ever walked this planet (and that includes historical groups that view their place in the world the same as today’s conservatives).
