By callous, I mean the specific language preventing a physician from alleviating symptoms of GD. Imagine if it were anything else but GD. (I’m having a conversation with myself but only tweeting bits of it.)

South Carolina just introduced a bill prohibiting anyone under age of 18 from undergoing gender reassignment medical treatment—
including intervention to alleviate symptoms of gender dysphoria.
I’m not an expert on the subject, but this seems pretty callous. #scleg #TeamLegalpic.twitter.com/0aUrrsRi4m

Also, how are you gonna prohibit a person from seeking medical care? What’s the penalty for the teenager who begins their own GD treatment since they can’t get treatment from a physician? make it make sense

The more I read and think about it, the worse it gets. If a teenager is prohibited from undergoing medical treatment for GD, then they’ll be subject to discrimination, purposeful misgendering, appearance policing. Not to mention use of locker rooms and bathrooms in schools.

I’m no attorney, but this also sounds illegal.

Conservatives don't care. They'll ram it through and put in judges that will agree with it. Theocracy is here and it's this close to edging in.

Also seems unconstitutional.

It very likely is.
