Reply to comment by CocoTheElder in This is currently an anti-trans bill sitting in our house at the moment, and frankly, I don’t see enough people talking about it. by Jtagz

I’m all for everybody being happy. I wanted real tattoos at 9 and I’m glad my parents didn’t allow it. Power rangers tats are probably out of style these days. If it makes the kid happy and they don’t regret it, good.

If you're still comparing healthcare supported by every medical authority of record to wanting a tattoo, that's probably a good indicator that you aren't actually arguing from a place of logic

I think you aren’t willing to read to understand. I’m not comparing healthcare to tattoos. I’m comparing decisions kids make that they eventually will grow up and regret. It can’t be a spur of the moment decision or a phase. Like I said, if the kids grow into a happy adult that’s what matters. I have a trans woman in my family. She waited until she was a teen, not so much by choice, but slowly started to do it, went to college and got a great job, then one day she just said “my name is Nicole now” and now she looks and feels great as a fully transitioned woman.

Good for her, just quit browbeating other trans people with concern trolling without evidence considering desistance is around 2%

Good to know. I’m not trying to troll anyone. I genuinely don’t know statistics. I think I’ve been constructive in my discourse but I can’t say the same for you.
