Do you agree that transgender drugs and surgeries for children should be banned?

Question

MementoMori_ · Accepted Answer

100%

It's sadistic child abuse. Any doctor who does this surgery should be in prison.

If they are confused about whether they are male or female, they should get therapy not drugs and surgery that could destroy their entire future because some lunatics can't handle reality. It is a mental disorder and needs to be treated as such.

yes, kids are too impressionable to be able to decide on something that will have life changing consequences.

Phoenix98 · Answer

They should have always been banned. kids aren't smart or knowledgeable enough at that age to know what they are agreeing to or what the repercussions of those choices are at that age. On top of that their brains aren't fully developed and they are incredibly impressionable.

To put a child through that to mutilate their bodies and turn them into a circus act and an outcast like that it's cruel and child abuse. And anyone who puts a child through that should be imprisoned.

No matter how you try to twist it it's not right, it's not ok and it's immoral and cruel.

melanieeeB · Answer

YES! If you're an adult and know what you are doing, okay it's your decision but leave the kids out of this.

My little sister had a good friend in kindergarten and once I picked her up at his house and talked to the mom, she was talking about that he is her first child and that she wanted a girl... well 5 years later and that just 10 year old kid is an outcast running around in princess dresses and insisting on being a girl. Nobody can convince me that a little kid knows about stuff like that.

Crimsyjo · Answer

Absolutely

Children can't make life altering decisions and parents should only make these decisions if life threatening to not do so.

A very basic comparison could be tattoos. Imagine what sort of tattoo you might choose to have at age 10. Or 15? Do you think at 25 or 30 your regret it? I think most people would or do. Some might not. But it's too risky. If you want a tattoo of a particular thing at ten, still want it at 15 and still want it at 20 then I'd say ok. I think it's safe to go ahead now!

CaptainObivous · Answer

1000% Kids brains aren't fully developed making them very impressionable and their interest to change over time. if they grow up and decide they still want to transition as an adult, then leave them be as their an adult who is finally capable of making their own decision. Children go through many phases as they grow up, one fine example is tomboys who grow up to become girly girls. Few months back watch a clip of a women talking about being a tomboy as a kid and how if she was a tomboy today she'd be pushed to transition into becoming a boy.

Sevenpointfive · Answer

i forget where i read this, but this was happening in america. doctors were snipping off the penis of newborn boys. they would later claim it was by accident, but it was very intentional. i wonder how many of those male babies grew up into this trans movement? because this was never normal.

Ez-Bri-Z_v2 · Answer

There are more cis gender affirming surgeries for children than there are for trans kids. Hormone blockers are fine for teens who are under therapist care. I dont think they should be taking hormones themselves until they are older but that holds true for cis kids as well.

Anonymous · Answer

Even if I don't understand it, I know there are children out there under 18 that absolutely know in their heart of hearts they are in the wrong bodies and that feeling for them won't change in any therapy, but if I were a parent, I just could not see approving it if it were legal, for them to start these drugs and surgeries unless like other surgeries, they were a requirement for their health or it was a life threatening situation. This is a life altering decision about their own bodies that needs to be taken very seriously as some of it can be irreversible. That choice is their own when they become 18 and can sign their own paperwork and are fully able to understand that they are the ones fully making that decision on their own.

altaboy · Answer

I think it should be banned for children. These are big decisions, and to make the right big decision, it requires experience, self knowledge and some maturity. I don't think a child is equipped for a life altering decision like this. At least wait until they are old enough to drink and vote. I still didn't know anything at that age, but at least you're done your basic education by then.

BCRanger10 · Answer

Absolutely, without question, 100%  YES!

HawkPerception · Answer

Yes. Never understood why it was ever allowed in the first place. Only sickos want to mutilate people rather than teach them to be comfortable with their own biology.

sportsbraslikes · Answer

Yes any one who believes that transgender drugs and surgeries should be legal should be considered a sex offender and be put away

RxR0954 · Answer

I’d say leave it to their doctor. There are intersex children that need hormones and surgeries, and there are severely dysphoric older teens that need the procedure to save their lives. And believe it or not it’s extremely difficult and rare for minors to be approved for surgeries.

Zack-Bann · Answer

It feels like we’ve been having this same discussion forever now

Absolutely they should be banned

I would in fact vote for the public execution of the doctors that push children in that direction

Luckily it seems these days it’s less and less of a trend

For a while it felt like everyone and their mother wanted to slice and dice a child’s genitalia

purplepoppy · Answer

No. But they shouldn't be prescribed without an investigation by at least 2 different qualified doctors or panels. The kid should be questioned over several years and his teachers, parents, football coach etc all interviewed. Any suggestion anyone's pushing an agenda then phone the police

AviatorTom · Answer

It's not something government should get involved in, but parents should be educated about a youth's development and when a young person is physically and mentally capable of making decisions for themselves.

It's sad when parents make a decision to physically alter their child, and then later in life the child regrets it.

JHNS98 · Answer

What should be banned, is hormone replacement therapy for those who don't properly need it. There's this emerging business of testosterone programmes being advertised to everyone, though I assume incels are their actual market

Same applies to plastic surgery as well.

Staximus · Answer

Absolutely, it's child abuse. Kids don't know what the hell they want or what the hell they are thinking. They can make stupid life decisions like that after they become an adult and not when under the influence of some liberal lunatic parents

drummerdude25 · Answer

Absolutely banned, yes. How was this all even allowed to happen in the first place? Disgusting.

jenna815 · Answer

Yes... childhood is too early, they're still questioning basic life problems until 20s... no way should even reversible surgeries be offered to minors, and that's not withstanding emotional baggage

Alex-Snow · Answer

I think it is something for the kid and his/her parents to discuss with a health professional and also thee should be some type of waiting period. But life is short and people should be happy with what they want to be. I know many will disagree with that statement. But it is their body and their choice.

XXTruthfulOgrexx · Answer

100% yes. Those kids have no idea who they will be in 5 to 10+ years.

DJB72 · Answer

Yes. Assuming the species survives the thought will be considered as barbaric as trepanning or giving anorexics a gastric bypass in decades to come.

Anonymous · Answer

Yes absolutely and those professionals involved should be made liable for any regret or related health problems these kids have in the future.

WonderingManII · Answer

Yes, and the thing they don't tell them is that when you go through transition you lose some of your life.

jshm2 · Answer

No. But not for the reasons you think.  A lot more goes into the prognosis and surgeries than you think.  Sure, it's a shitty problem you have. But it's not always the fault of daft parents.

Surely · Answer

There are plenty of ways to mess up a child’s life without giving drugs and butchering them.

snermcger · Answer

Yeap. These are life changing decsions that should be made by adults, as adults.

Anonymous · Answer

Yes, you don't treat the body for disorders of the mind; especially when 95% of those who suffer from this disorder are victims of early childhood sexual trauma.

red-lipstick-girl · Answer

I absolutely agree, medications should be banned because when children grow up they can decide everything.

berserk945 · Answer

Yes, I don't know how we got to this point. 🤦🏻‍♂️

Drumlin2001 · Answer

You can't get a tattoo till 18. Shouldn't be about to do sny body mods till then

CaptainSmartass · Answer

Yep. In fact, I think we should go further and make being a transsexual illegal. Simples...

Snowman84 · Answer

There is no such thing as transgender drugs.  There are puberty blockers and hormones generally speaking.
