I recently worked on a film called "Derosa: A Life in Transition" (on Amazon). This was my first exposure up close to this subject and I found it to be interesting, even touching. I also found that many people (adults) that go through this have a good reason and don't flaunt it. Those that do flaunt it fall into the same camp as those that flaunt their sexuality for attention. If you have to attach a political agenda to your sexuality, you're not a serious person in my opinion. I also believe it is 100% wrong to push sexuality on minors in any way - the same as it would be to support child porn. I have gay friends and now a trans friend, but not once have any of them tried to push any agenda on me. You know why? Because they're serious people, not attention seekers. Let's sober up people. Live and LET live, not Live like me or not at all.
Good article and thinking points. When I was age 9 or 10-- the idea of breasts and menstruation was horrifying. I just wanted to be a kid. Glad to say it all worked out how it was meant to be, and I became who I was born to be.
I personally don't support schools and medical professionals getting involved in
a parenting situation. It's called Parenting for a reason...I also agree that being of a certain age-- also gives me some peace.
Test question 4 states, "If you think that the only way to align the body and mind of a person with gender dysphoria is surgery, then add 8 points to column A"
But no medical professional (that's right, literally no one) is asserting that the "ONLY" way to treat a person with gender dysphoria is ever any one single thing. What is asserted is that surgery may be right FOR AN INDIVIDUAL CASE but much like every other medical condition a course of treatment must be set for each individual patient. Whether you are talking about treatments for cancer, narcolepsy, Klinefelter syndrome, or any other condition, the treatment that is right for a patient will vary from patient to patient.
And, to be very very clear, no medical professional (that's right, literally no one) is asserting otherwise for gender dysphoria. Therefore, a "test" that poses one-and-only-one answer as a "right" answer, is irretrievably flawed.

Clear, concise, common sense.
Rich, I think you know where I stand on this. My only comment is I am glad I only have a few years left on this earth.
What a biased piece -of-garbage article promoting one vision only
