You say “there it is!” like my position was in anyway obscured lol.

Yes in fact my sister transitioned years ago and she’s so much happier for it. She’s not the only one too. It’s crazy just how much it can turn someone’s life around to receive proper care.

You dodged my question though, what is your connection to this issue? I’m curious why you care so much.

It’s the same where I live and it’s insane. Nearly every day there’s a leaf blower going for seemingly hours and it’s so loud.

> I understand all of it.

Yet you just keep repeating the talking points someone else gave you.

Puberty blockers are safe and temporary. Once you stop taking them, things proceed normally from where you left off. I fully support their use in delaying puberty until someone is old enough to medically transition, and I fully support socially transitioning at any age.

Can I ask, how does this issue affect you personally? Do you know anyone who is trans, or have you dealt with these issue yourself?

Cross dressing is not the same as being transgender. Being transgender is when you transition.

Yeah man, the standard of care is to wait until at least 18 before any surgeries. So if we’re talking about surgery (which we weren’t, transitioning doesn’t require surgery) then we aren’t talking about kids.

You are so upset about this but you don’t seem to actually understand any of it?

Correct, cross dressing is something different. Some people are transgender and some people just like to cross dress. Nothing wrong with either.

No one was talking about children’s genitals until you brought it up, weirdo

I think it’s a little ridiculous to pretend that being transgender isn’t a biological fact.

At the end of the day, the best treatment we know of for gender dysphoria is transitioning. It leads to happier and longer lives than anything else.

It means the original comment is poorly veiled transphobia

F1 teams have never fully owned the car, you’ll notice they all look pretty similar. The FIA has a lot of rules around the construction of the cars

Everyone deserves to eat. It’s unfortunate that we can’t all agree to this

We don’t have to fully outlaw gambling or other forms of high risk entertainment, but we absolutely should be outlawing the pervasive advertising these companies are doing. You can’t enjoy sports these days without dodging tons of ads for betting platforms
