it's exactly as i keep saying. kids will grow up and realize that everyone around them that was supposed to protect them has utterly failed them in favor of just feeling good instead of doing good.
@beardalaxy not to play the devil's advocate here, but 15 is absolutely not a child, and is also the age when life-changing decisions are expected
@tomie i mean i think the whole argument is whether you think someone who is 15 should be able to transition or not, not semantics over whether a 15 year old is a child or if they can make other life altering decisions. you can make life altering decisions at any age, but the point is that society at large and especially someone's immediate guardians should try and mitigate the severity of the choices being made. i'd argue that applies to not just minors but everyone in your circle. it's just that minors are more vulnerable so they need more protection.
@beardalaxy the whole argument is much wider than that, and its root cause is in the society built on exploiting your neighbor to maximize profits
and there's not much immediate guardians are able to do with someone who is already 15 in the system which has been working on demedicalizing sex and turning it into "an identity" for about 15 years already
