re: SCOTUS ruling: state bans on trans “care” for minors is constitutional

Do whatever you want once you're an adult. In fact, cut your hair differently and wear different clothes as a minor if you really want. But you can't do permanent, life-altering physical changes to minors. Outrageous this is even a discussion.
This is my position on it as well.
Another way to think about it is this...it is illegal for children's privates to be touched by an adult in a sexual manner and children cannot consent to sex with an adult (ie using their privates for their intended purpose), why should it be legal for an adult to cut those privates off or render them sterile?

Thank God. Let screwed up adults do whatever to their own bodies but protect children who lack the maturity to make such life altering decisions from doing permanent harm to themselves.
It’s no different than a myriad of other age limited constraints in our society.

But a stunning victory for human rights, especially children.

We were told that people just need to think they are the opposite sex and it becomes truth, so what rights were set back? They have not outlawed man's ability to think and say he is a woman.
ETA: It could also be said the pro-trans crowd is trying to eliminate the gay and lesbian population. Nowadays an effeminate dude is told he's a trans woman and should transition.

Obamacare can ban tanning beds for minors but state can't ban transgender surgeries for minors

Second, contrary to the representations of the United States and the private plaintiffs,
there is no medical consensus on how best to treat gender
dysphoria in children.
I mean, there is. It just isn't irreversible medical procedures. It's utilizing psychosocial support instead.
I hate the use of gender-affirming care as specific to transgender folks as well in legislation as it results in bans on care that is needed at times. For instance, working with a female client who has had a mastectomy (due to breast cancer) on her confidence and self-worth in still identifying as a woman post-surgery is gender-affirming care.

Yep, cisgender people use it as well.

besides being an adult and not a kid, those 2 words in bold disagree with what they're trying to pull with 'gender affirming'.
its about changing someone's real sex to something they're not

Why don’t we tell schizophrenics that their delusions are real?

Just as how breast augmentation isn’t gender-affirming care.

You have no clue of what this term means if this is your response. Vast majority of people would be considered as cisgender.

That's a fair argument. I don't disagree. My larger concern is addressing the comorbid disorders that run along with gender dysphoria (anxiety, depression, etc).

From a psych perspective, affirming someone's gender and addressing when they feel in conflict with that gender is gender-affirming (as I described) care. So the situation I described is.
The issue is legislation utilizes gender-affirming care in a really general sense that limits usage for appropriate folks.

its a made up word y'all came up with a few years back to describe normal people.
but keep on using it; that will make it stick.

which is why it is superfluous language. We aren't chemical bonds.

‘cisgender’
Is made-up term intended to make normal sound like a subset. It’s just linguistic sleight of hand: invent a new word, retroactively assign it to the majority, and pretend it’s always been a thing.
c on z and the LBTQLMNOP+ people can keep playing make-believe if they want, but shouldn’t expect the rest of us to play along.
