I feel like you guys are kind of arguing different things. People aren't having sexual reassignment surgery at 10. People aren't even usually taking puberty blockers at ten. When someone is transitioning, there are several steps that are taken: 1) Social transitioning: Basically just being treated as and expressing yourself as the gender you identify with. This obviously is not irreversible in any way and this is the only transitioning you see on kids under ten(ish). You seem to largely be arguing against something that doesn't happen, which is fine, but I don't think anyone in this thread is actually arguing in favor of sexual reassignment at ten years old. |
Assuming steps 1 through 3 arent irreversible and that dosent inflict damage to the body if they stop taking it(like the blockers) then Im kind of fine with this.I just assumed that the articles were trying to imply that the surgery should be done as soon as possible.
Having said that, I dont think this should be encouraged like its something normal.I mean, in the sense that parents and doctors jump to this series of procedure, just because the child says he/she wants,without extensive research on the child first(therapists and all that talking with the child to know if they really want that)
My (locked) thread about how difficulty should be a decision for the developers, not the gamers.
