So I feel like I’ve been seeing transgender stuff everywhere lately and I’ve been of the mindset of just letting people do what they want to do. However, a lot of these posts are around children transitioning. In my naive brain I was just thinking these kids were “cross dressing” for lack of better words. But some articles have talked about doing hormone therapy, sex changing surgery, etc when these kids are 13 years old. Is this actually happening??
Why not allow these kids to identify as whoever they want but wait until they are adults for physically altering drugs/surgery?
EDIT: This post blew up way more than I was expecting. My conclusion is that it a gender reassignment surgery on a minor has happened but it’s an extremely rare circumstance and most reasonable trans people (or at least the ones who have commented here) say that waiting until adulthood is the norm. Please don’t use this post to spread hate.
