@@angemalaurie6074 You wanna know why? Because trans people are going around promoting puberty blockers for kids. And because trans people refuse to admit that men shouldn’t compete against women in sports, and that children cannot consent to puberty blockers. If trans people started condemning the lgbt agenda and stop pushing down radical gender ideology on people no one would want them to be put in mental hospitals.

Trans rights? What exactly is trans rights? Is it to allow a man to compete in women’s sports, is it to allow a 50 year old dude who wears a dress and calls himself Jenny to use the same public bathroom that a little 6 year old girl is using, so what happens to the rights of the rest of the people that do not agree with this, let me guess, their rights don’t matter as long as the trans people are happy, no it doesn’t work that way, there is no middle ground here, there is no compromise, they want it their way without any consideration of others, I for one will not be supporting this.

[@dweuromaxx]

@JeepDan777 Transgender people also have a need for privacy and safety.

Except that's *not* what's happening. They transition socially UNTIL such a time they'd normally enter puberty. If they're already entering it, they're put on blockers to slow down or halt it, then WAIT for a while to see how they feel as they try socially transitioning. For minors, SOCIAL transition happens FAR sooner than any medical intervention. Nobody is cutting the wombs out of 10 year olds. Maybe check your effing sources.

For what ? Giving trans people respect and basic human rights? You're delusional. Trans people should be protected like everybody else. We just wanna live our life in peace and safeness.

Believe me, Dysphoria can eat you up alive. It's one of the worst feelings I've ever experienced myself. Don't take these things too lightly. You guys are killing your own children with these laws, if they are trans. Also, it's not the place of the government to decide what we should do with our bodies and lives.

What rights, specifically? Name them and detail them.

[@Ropetrick6]

The right to self-identification, the right to self-determination, the right to protection from violence, and the right to your own body.

[@GunmetalEar]

The right to life. Tn made it illegal for a time before a federal court stepped in. The intentions are clear and the protections are null. In fact trans people can be denied Healthcare in many states purely because they are trans. Need a heart transplant? Sorry the heart surgeon is a "loving christian" so he can't operate on you.

its crazy when u realise trans ppl werent even a thing 150-200 years back - and that this opinion on whether or not a teenager should be allowed hormones and surgery wasn’t even something that would cross their minds. makes me wonder what new horrors as technology progresses will appear - stuff that my grandchildren and even the most blown out progressives of this generation, will infact, be seen as a "conservative" - for being against. Advanced technology isnt always the answer, Pusha T once said "Ask steve jobs, wealth don't buy health"
