Because NOTHING screams “Liberty” louder than having the state specify precisely what medical and/or psychiatric procedures you can or cannot provide to your children.
Republicans really think that 7yos are getting surgery. Here’s how a trans kid transitions:
Pre-puberty: new clothes, new hairstyle, new name, new pronouns. That’s it.
Onset of puberty: hormone blockers (fully and easily reversible).
Mid teens (after at least a year of blockers): hormone replacement therapy (can be a bit harder to reverse).
18+ (after living as target gender for 2 years): MAYBE surgery.
Look at you bringing facts into an argument with wholly irrational fearful people who don’t actually know how this works.
I’ve had this same discussion with a few choice family members and I think I’m just not going to talk to them at all anymore.

Dear GOP , it’s not illegal for kids to have sex. it’s illegal for YOU to have sex with kids , you fucking pedophiles.

Absolutely nothing sexualized about the process.
