"I never said I agreed with it, but its perfectly legal and she doesnt have a leg to stand on."

@beautyisthefaceisee your total lack of empathy and compassion for a young teen who was a lonely girl looking for belonging and acceptance by her peers (like so many teens) is disturbing. You are extremely dismissive of her suffering. There is NO WAY a 15 yr old can fully consent to having her breasts removed. Most 15 yr olds haven't even had and are in fact much too young for a meaningful romantic relationship.

@bebeautyisthefaceisee I don't understand people like you at all. How you will literally defend the indefensible. She was a child. She was 13 years old when she started this process. What is wrong with you?

The more I see the lengths extremists will go to, the more I realise it is a moral necessity to continue standing against this ideology and its willingness to sacrifice CHILDREN on the altar.

I’m parent to an otherwise intelligent twenty-something who ties self in absolute knots at the mention of the sexes being physically different (or surgery being less than a perfect solution, or testosterone having known side effects on the female body, or oestrogen on men’s). It’s as if the brain just sheers off and can’t think about it in case they accidentally become a Transphobe with a capital T.

And that’s just a bystander to all this going on amongst relatives and friends.

To be honest, I'm not sure that I would have been any different had I been a 19 year old today. I like to think I would have been able to see the truth, and speak it, but peer pressure is immense at that age. They are very caught up in being 'nice and kind and righteous', it doesn't pay to be an outsider in your peer group. And it doesn't cost them much to parrot the mantras, for which they get rewarded heavily with social kudos.

Even adults struggle to stand up to this issue, so I don't blame young people for going along with this, even though it's nonsense. I'm hopeful in years to come they will see that they were manipulated.

I was a total TRA at nineteen, so... Resisting the peer pressure is truly difficult. Give her time.
