Ban Gender Transitioning for minors

Policies should be implemented which prohibit the physical hormone transitioning of children via healthcare services. This often irreversible procedure can have lasting impacts on the person later into their adult life. The idea that the child can have the maturity and understanding of a need for surgery/ chemical castration at young ages is inconsistent with other laws already passed. If someone is 18 and up who cares what they decide to do in their own time as long as they are not harming others. Also, weed and psychedelics should be decriminalized in recreational amounts federally.

Children aren’t old enough to smoke cigarettes because they don’t understand the long term impacts. They’re not allowed to drink alcohol for the same reasons. They’re not allowed to get a tattoo for the same reason. Children are not allowed to vote because they don’t understand the impact of policies and laws that can effect them down the road, Children are not allowed to have sex because they don’t understand sex…. But some people think children should be able to get sex change procedures because they know what’s best for them… Insanity

It will be crimes against humanity. Because grooming them for this discussion is criminal.

This should be done NOW! This alone is mangling the physical and mental health of the youth of our country. You’re still a boy or girl genetically, and the “doctors” that perform these horrifying experiments on minors know that. They don’t care. It’s all a money game.

Something I would add onto it is that it should be illegal (if it isn’t already) for an adult to give a minor their own hrt. This is a well known problem, seen by some of the most well known names among trans people who effectively encourage minors to contact them and they’ll give the hormones (and these same people often encourage children to cut off their parents).

I want to vote for this, but I disagree with your last sentence about decriminalizing recreational weed. I wish you had posted this as two separate ideas. I completely support banning gender transitioning for minors.

Should be the same as alcohol and tobacco laws 21 years old.

Transitioning children is profound abuse and all who promote it should be criminally charged - doctors, teachers, councillors, parents, politicians…

Agree 100%!!! Minors under should not be allowed to make this decision!

When they have come of age to make such a decision! Their family and themself needs to come up with their own money for such procedure! NOT American Tax Money and NOT American Insurance Money! Their body, use their own money! Insurance don’t cover plastic surgery unless it was from an accident. Our Heath insurance went up because of those idiot policies!

Wouldn’t this topic be better suited to the health category?

Don’t be like the government. One proposal per bill.

While I understand there has been some research on psychedelics and its benefits, we have a problem with mental health and substance abuse. If you were going to decriminalize that it would need to be restricted in some way still. Naturally occuring psilocybin should not fall into the same category as LSD for example.
