I didn't realize it was even legal to send a 12-yo for irreversible body mod surgery. Back in my day, we had a thing called phases, trends. People saw stuff on TV and wanted to be it / do it. Some even thought drugs were cool but their parents damn sure weren't encouraging. WTF?

In a discussion about adolescent gender transitions, Dr. Scott Mosser explained that he has performed “over two thousand top surgeries,” which involve removing girls’ breasts, and that there is no age limit for beginning the “gender journey.”

Kids are easily influenced. A 5-yo will tell you they identify as a T-Rex and they would demand to be transformed, if the option was available. There's a reason some countries ban marketing to children. A 12-yo honestly is not that much more capable of making this decision.

Parents have to draw the line. Your job, as a parent, is to do what's best, even when it hurts. Your kid doesn't know what's best. You aren't homies. You aren't there to be supportive and affirming no matter what. You are there to shepherd them to safety, past all the threats.

Between the public education system's indoctrination and Netflix brainwashing us to believe that the teenage population is 80% trans and it's a fun, great way to be popular, you're fighting an uphill battle. Clarity might require an intervention, hard exit from the environment.

People are literally abusing your children. You're confused because instead of saying "don't tell your parents", this time they're saying "tell your parents it was your idea", and you're short-circuited. Welcome to grooming 101. It's money out, dicks in. Your kids. Stay vigilant.

If the last 2 years have taught us anything it's that the "experts" and doctors don't know anything. Most people are conformists and will blindly follow a mob to commit atrocities. Your child's welfare is not a responsibility you can outsource. Trust your god-given instincts. /🧵

One more thing. It's ok to * be a boy who likes to wear dresses and do makeup * be a girl who likes to wear pants and play sports * explore your attraction to the same gender You don't have to accept permanence, labels, stereotypes, perform your identity to others' expectations.

How about just letting humans make mistakes and own their decisions? Isn't that literally what the crypto paradigm encourages above anything else?

Assuming we have the human psychology figured out well enough to bar people from doing things that they of their own will want to do likely only does more harm than good. Reeks of supremacist hegemon implications.
