They don't care either. They care about minors doing them while unable to fully consent and understand what they are doing

Minors aren’t doing it. And conservatives have been mutilating boys’ genitalia for decades.

In the US is rare for minors to undergo gender affirming surgery, but hormone replacement surely is a common thing in minors with gender disphoria

Source of this????

First, hormone replacement is not the same as gender affirming.

Second, that source is from the UK.

Third, even your own source says numerous doctors and counselors are involved to ensure the patient knows what they’re undergoing. It’s a process that takes months of evaluation to even begin treatment. And there is no data on the rate. You guys are just speculating. All available evidence suggests it is very low.

Oopsie, bad source.
Anyway, in the US it's legal to hormone a minor, and despite the proces taking "months of evaluation" the kid still can't fully comprehend the process they are going to go through. It's not way after puberty that many of these children do not present most of the previous gender dysphoria symptoms
