Minors shouldn't be getting cosmetic surgery unless they have a legit malformation, like cleft palate or scars/disfigurement from an accident etc.  The odd mole or skin tag is fine.  But they shouldn't be getting boob and nose jobs etc, what kind of sick doctor would perform that nonsense? When you're 18 you can do whatever you want.

But there are lots of doctors who do that stuff, more than perform gender reassignment surgery, but there's no coordinated campaign by the neo-fascists to ban that stuff. Because they don't actually care about kids getting surgery they just don't want trans people to exist, which is why the locus of this moral panic has continually shifted from bathrooms and sports to concern trolling over kids medically transitioning to the latest push back against allowing kids to socially transition. The next step, which Trump has come out for, is banning gender affirming care for adults too.

This came out a few months ago and I didn't hear one goddamned word about it from the "nooo you can't give kids drugs and surgery" crowd.

New guidelines for treating childhood obesity include medications and surgery


Quote
For the first time in 15 years, the American Academy of Pediatrics on Monday released new guidelines for treating childhood obesity, emphasizing a need for early and intensive treatment.
...
For children ages 12 and up, one of the major changes in the recommendations is the inclusion of anti-obesity drugs and weight-loss surgery alongside lifestyle changes.
...
...
The guidelines say that pediatricians should offer weight-loss drugs for children age 12 and up with obesity.
...
The guidelines also recommend that teens age 13 and up with severe obesity consider discussing weight-loss surgery, which evidence has shown can be a safe and effective treatment with lasting results.

It’s so f**ked up that our remedy for fat kids now is drugs and surgery.  So f**ked up.  There’s a reason why so many more kids today are fat compared to 30, 40 years ago.  We should be addressing those reasons, not knifing up children, and injecting them with drugs.  It’s called eating HEALTHY and EXERCISING.  Leave children alone you f**king nazi monsters.  JFC, we’ve completely lost our minds as a society!

And yet there's no outcry from the usual suspects like your boy Groomer Ron DeSicko, no calls for heavy handed government intervention or bans like with trans healthcare or books about LGBTQ people or anything of the sort. And you're too stupid to wonder why that is.

Pretty dumb.

I guess in some rare people who have legit genetic disorders its pretty hard to not pack on every calorie they intake as fat, so in rare cases it might be the healthiest option.  But i don't think i'd give it to kids.

Exactly.  It shouldn’t be a guideline for treating obesity.  But it is now because society has lost its collective mind.  It’s too difficult to tell people these days, that guess what?  You’re going to have to stop eating so much junk, and you’re going to have to get off your ass and exercise.  That will literally work for 99.999999999999999% of people suffering from obesity.  It’ll even work for a  on somebody with a “genetic” problem.  Maybe not as well, but it would still yield some results.  But society is too fond of its “healthy at any weight “ bullsh*t.

While I don't agree with making kids get surgery or take weight loss drugs, this is just typical conservative bullshit that places the onus on individuals and completely ignores the complex economic social and environmental factors that contribute to the problem.

And the typical progressive response blames everything on external factors and makes everyone out to be victims and ignores personal agency.  Things aren't so black and white.

Who is responsible for our lifestyles?  Who is going to change it?  We are largely, and we will.  Parents let their kids watch tv and play on their phones and Playstations all day while eating junk, how do you change that?  Limit their screen time, feed them better food.  The excuse that "healthy food is just too expensive" is a bunch of nonsense.  A bag of lettuce is $3.  A half-dozen bananas is like $1.50.  Apples aren't expensive.  A bag of baby carrots for snacks isn't that expensive, no more than a bag of chips.  Less educated parents make less educated decisions, and their fat arses can't stop eating chips and cookies either.

There are obviously some environmental factors, like school buses instead of walking to school (evil cars), and junk food in the cafeteria, but this is largely a problem created by our own lifestyle choices, and kids are fatter today than 50 years ago largely because parents aren't making the right choices for their tots.

Do trans women have a right to use women's locker rooms, or do cis women have a right not to have to undress in front of trans women (biological men of female gender) and be exposed to their male genitals?

When rights collide you picks your side...

I'm with the latter in this case.

Wild how you can never check to see if any of Shiddy's outrageous claims are real or not because he's too stupid to post a link instead of a janky screenshot.

Turns out the person who said they worked at a clinic where kids were being fast tracked into puberty blockers and hormones (and who said they had kids coming in identifying as helicopters and otehr inanimate objects) may have been full of crap!

Parents push back on allegations against St. Louis transgender center. ‘I’m baffled.’

Quote
Explosive allegations made public last month about a St. Louis clinic that treats transgender children have flung parents into a vortex of emotions: shock, confusion, anger, fear.

Kim Hutton, among those confused by the reports, views the treatment her son, now 19, received from Washington University’s Transgender Center at St. Louis Children’s Hospital as vital to making him the outgoing college freshman he is today.

“The idea that nobody got information, that everybody was pushed toward treatment, is just not true. It’s devastating,” Hutton said. “I’m baffled by it.”

Almost two dozen parents of children seen at the clinic, which opened in 2017, say their experiences sharply contradict the examples supplied by Jamie Reed, a case manager who left the WU center after being employed there for more than four years. Reed outlined her concerns in an article published online Feb. 9; her sworn affidavit, which included additional allegations, was released that day by Missouri Attorney General Andrew Bailey, who is leading a state investigation.
