    Oh boy, I can tell you’re not here for a good faith argument. Puberty blockers are explicitly TO delay puberty until they can be sure. Nothing wrong with them

    “But why can they consent to-”

    Nah ah, already stated the difference

      Yup, puberty blockers let trans youth prevent the onset of gender characteristics during puberty so that they can make an informed decision on what they want when they are an adult. It’s basically all upsides and, if the youth decides to go ahead with the puberty matching their birth sex it’s trivial to do so… but it keeps that door open so time doesn’t force a decision on them.

      “I dont agree with you your argument must be bad faith” is one hell of a bad faith argument.

      So you consider the side effects an acceptable risk?

        And you think you know more than the kid’s doctor to predecide for millions of kids in your country?

        It’s not our risk to accept. It’s between the person and their doctor.
