Gender dysphoria, I agree, is real.

But I don't think the way we treat this is by just slapping on hormones and puberty blockers.

So what happens to anxiety, depression, and suicide rates after a young trans person goes through gender-affirming care?

And then after that... What about 10 years?

In 70% of cases, suicidality goes down.

No one is advocating for a child to make decisions by themselves.

They're working with their parents to receive parental consent, medical supervision, and they're not happening under the age of 13.

And the majority of doctors in all cases in the United States of America are telling people not to have a lot of these crucial surgeries until they do reach the age of 18.

Do you know how many people have had surgery in the United States of America that is gender affirming care under the age of 18 that resulted in any type of surgical transformation of the body?

Do you know the number?

0.01%.

So at what number do we have to get to to show you that this ruined their lives?

It ended up saving their lives.

How many young people have to tell you that this care is saving their lives before you care?

What's the difference between doing it as a child and doing it when you turn 18?

What's the difference?

What's the difference?

What's the difference?

There's so much of a difference.

When you go through puberty, so much of your body and chemical changes so drastically that it creates a lot of the negative experience that leads trans young people to kill themselves.
