    I knew what you were fishing for.

    And you chose to avoid discussing the fundamental nature of the topic at hand why?

    Medical care and cosmetic body art are nowhere near the same thing

    Let me make a list of similarities and differences for ya

    Similarities

    • permanent modification to body
    • positive outcomes are purely psychological
    • cannot be undone once done

    Differences

    • children can get one
    • are labeled as a cunt for asking questions about 1 not the other
    • some people think one is a right

    Politicians are elected its called democracy it exists so the opinions and ethics of the people can be actioned upon and hence said professional licencing organisations can be updated.

      Children are not routinely getting permanent surgical interventions for gender affirming care. Tattoos and piercings can both be undone.

      “Bro bro I’m JUST ASKING QUESTIONS BRO” https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sealioning

      Then the politicians can update licensing organizations. We DO NOT NEED NEW LAW about this or about pregnancy care.

        I would most certainly classify fucking with hormones as a permanent intervention. I’m glad we have established that piercing and tattoos are less permanent.

        Sealioning (also sea-lioning and sea lioning) is a type of trolling or harassment that consists of pursuing people with relentless requests for evidence

        I’m not asking you for evidence I’m simply questioning ideology. If you feel the need to back your opinions with evidence ur welcome to go get some. I find the whole concept of sealioning an affront to democracy and civil discussion I see it as a simple label to discredit any criticism and deny someone from questioning your beliefs.

        Laws/rules are simply the language or bureaucracy. And don’t you dare try lump me in with the religious nut jobs who want to kill abortion every adult should have complete self autonomy over themselves anything else is fundamentally against freedom.
