If someone wants to "do nothing" about their gender then of course "doing nothing" is the right course of action The vast majority of all people today are in fact "doing nothing" and no one is objecting to that

If someone WANTS to transition and you put up resistance, you're not "doing nothing" Framing this response as "doing nothing" is fundamentally transphobic

What if that someone is 7 years old? I assume you agree with age of consent laws in other contexts.

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

Consent to what? Everyone always has the right to use the name and pronouns they choose Refusing to do so is a VIOLATION of consent, if a minor one, no matter what your fucking age is

No one is talking about names and pronouns. You're being silly.

If you're talking about seven-year-olds getting hormones and surgery, you are simply lying
