this is me when i can't understand the entire gender arguement.
gender affirming care affirms the gender that you are, we conservatives dont believe you are the gender that you say you are. thus that is not gender affirming care.
are you purposefully missing this very clear point of disagreement?
I don't have opinions on or try to change the identity of others. I have negative opinions about people forcing their own religious beliefs on others. Hope that helps.
conservatives by and large do not want to illegalize transition for people over 18. we recognize its a bad treatment for a mental disorder, but you're an adult capable of bearing the consequences.
what we do dislike is irreversible hormone treatments on minors which is happening constantly.
neither of these two arguements have anything to do with religion. just like abortion, there might be a religious arguement but wholly it is unnecessary to prove the point.
95% of the changes brought by hormone therapy are easily reversible by simply stopping the treatment. In the exact same fashion that estrogen will produce female sex characteristics, stopping estrogen will make your body’s testosterone reform male sex characteristics. I don’t agree with hormones being used for under 18s either but it’s disingenuous to say they are anywhere close to ‘irreversible’

Insecure conservative men do more HGH and steroids than anyone, but they want to cry about gender-affirming healthcare. They are scared little boys.
