Does a seven year old generally have the right to pick out their own clothes and be addressed by the name and pronouns they prefer when they're the "correct" ones?

This is why TERFs are fundamentally dishonest, they try to keep the horror of puberty blockers and "cross-sex hormones" in the front of your mind when talking about little kids undergoing no medical interventions at all (there's no puberty to block)

The only thing "affirmative care" means for a kid that age is respecting what they want to be called and how they want to be treated socially, which ought to be a general principle for how ALL children should ALWAYS be treated

You made a mistake here. It's not about clothing. It's about medical intervention.

Jesse Thorn was very clear in his viral thread that his daughter has undergone no "medical intervention" at the age of nine whatsoever but the TERFs still dogpiled him calling him a "groomer" and "child abuser"

I'm sorry that happened to him. How do you know they were TERFs? Isn't that just a name the wokes made up to label people who don't share their rigid views?

The irony of making this statement when it was a radfem who coined "TERF" to distance themselves from transphobes while using an appropriated AAVE term to describe people who don't share your regressive views.

I have completely given up trying to explain to white people why it's a "bad look" for them to take a positive Black slang term and use it as a sneering insult

Since this objection to this usage of the term "woke" is, itself, an example of "wokeness", it just makes them want to use the term more, because they are twelve years old

I can appreciate that, but I usually point it out for bystanders, not for the people committed to its use.
