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 🖕

      Aside from being surrounded by conservatives who have 0 tact, being autistic and needing to wear earmuffs… Of which the only ones were branded with conservative symbology, it was alright. Fun enough for sure. Grateful I didn’t have to pay for anything at all too, so now I’ve just got shooting experience and if I ever need to use one I now know how to use a variety.
