On Monday, Texas Attorney General Ken Paxton released an opinion that said allowing children to receive care like puberty blockers, hormone therapy and surgery is child abuse.

thus involves situations where people are giving hormones or gender changing treatment to children, right?

i don’t let my kids pick the dinner menu regularly, because i don’t want to eat snickers bars for dinner. i ain’t letting them decide to mutilate themselves.

kids can’t make these decisions, they’re not equipped. not even close. that’s why they need parents.

looks like there’s no consensus on whether or not the effects of these treatments are reversible. i’d outlaw it in the case of children.

i want every single kid to be ecstatically happy and confident and secure. im skeptical that allowing little kids decide to do this to themselves, is a good idea. it sounds bonkers to me. adults can do whatever they want.

if it appears those children are receiving gender-affirming medical care.

So you support citizens reporting parents based on if they think or it appears ?

Jim this is just like CRT or FLA don’t say gay bill

It’s not happening in schools and trans parents aren’t abusing their children ! It’s just in the imagination of law makers and their uninformed voters .

But guess what

Conversion Therapy’ Aimed at Gay People Remains Legal in Texas

Funny how that works

hard to believe we’re debating that issue, hard to believe there are two sides.

gotta like our chances in the Olympics in the future....China and Russia tried to send teams of women bulked up on drugs to be like men...we can just send teams of biological men who decide they are women....if we can just get kids to start understanding at kindergarten or so that there really aren't any genders...or possibly a million...they can grow up to compete in whatever they feel like at the time....they could grow up to be "man of the year" and "woman of the year "...all in the same year potentially....progress

Classic Scott only post the side of the story that supports the outrage he feels towards people who are not like him.. very classy and very petty

Seems the grammar and spelling expert missed the subtle differences between woman a singular noun whereas women is a plural Noun



USA today did not have 1 woman of the year but 61 women So please present the whole Truth not just A bra wearing youtube Host

Rachel Levine is one of 60 USA TODAY’s Women of the Year

https://www.usatoday.com/storytellin...the-year-2022/


Transgender and gays have been around Since Society started keeping records ...

And those most afraid of these people in America seem to be Christain Republican hetorosexual white Men !

if we can just get kids to start understanding at kindergarten or so that there really aren't any genders thanks you for supporting my observation
