Do you ever get tired of shitposting and getting called out on it?
All I did was ask a sincere question. I heard an interview on NPR with the Chief Psychiatist. I wanted to know how others, who might know more, felt about that. I'm glad you were able to find that study. A sincere question doesn't start with a conditional, Chad. The implication by quoting what you quoted was that Johns Hopkins thought the procedure controversial.
"There remain four irreducible objections to religious faith: that it wholly misrepresents the origins of man and the cosmos, that because of this original error it manages to combine the maximum servility with the maximum of solipsism, that it is both the result and the cause of dangerous sexual repression, and that it is ultimately grounded on wish-thinking." ~Christopher Hitchens, god is not Great

This is more reasonable than almost anything I can think of. They are delaying puberty until the kid is older so she can make a decision about moving forward at that time.
I'm not sure what's so controversial here. Agreed. As long as decisions aren't being made until puberty. I mean hell...a religion is chosen for kids at birth...[emoji12]

On a lot of levels I hope you are a troll and you spend a couple of nights in jail and lose a bunch of money because you thought this would be funny.
Hence why I told to look at his name - The celtic cross is the new symbol of white supremacism to avoid being too obvious with the Swastika - Obviously it's a gross misinterpretation of the symbol as the celts were a people like any other and they happened to be white - I'm probably "celtic" looking as most of my ancestors were celtic, but it's horrible to use their symbol as a motto for white supremacism.

What I don't get is why they keep randomly quoting posts and then writing nothing in response to them. Like why?

While I have the opportunity...gender dys, holy shit. To me, that's buddies with alzheimers and ulcerative colitis. It's on the shortlist of things I don't think I could live with for any amount of time. It would be too much for me, I think. Dissociative breaks, np......gender dys, no dice. Not for me.
I am the Infantry. I am my country’s strength in war, her deterrent in peace. I am the heart of the fight… wherever, whenever. I carry America’s faith and honor against her enemies. I am the Queen of Battle. I am what my country expects me to be, the best trained Soldier in the world. In the race for victory, I am swift, determined, and courageous, armed with a fierce will to win. Never will I fail my country’s trust. Always I fight on…through the foe, to the objective, to triumph overall. If necessary, I will fight to my death. By my steadfast courage, I have won more than 200 years of freedom. I yield not to weakness, to hunger, to cowardice, to fatigue, to superior odds, For I am mentally tough, physically strong, and morally straight. I forsake not, my country, my mission, my comrades, my sacred duty. I am relentless. I am always there, now and forever. I AM THE INFANTRY! FOLLOW ME!

Being trans is a medical condition that makes one's brain work like the opposite sex. I'd be disturbed if her parents wouldn't let her transition.

Transgendered children

What I don't understand is how a child knows what another gender feels like. Or anybody really. When a biological male says they feel female, what does being a female feel like?
