This is an important conversation to have #Hollyoaks

A post on that thread

Dr Christine McGinn who has performed “about 20” vaginoplasties on males under the age of 18.

But surgery never happens on minors…

Susie Green's son, famously, as well.

This is in America.

I think you are confusing ideology/religion/magical thinking with medicine.

So are you saying you think that operations on the genitals of minors are wrong outside of a medical crisis?

There is no suggestion that the boy in the clip will have surgery before the age of 18.

WPATH is an international organisation.

There is no boy in the clip. That fictional girl may have a double mastectomy. Most girls don't have more than that, but some do. There is also an adult male in the clip.

I'm not a doctor so I wouldn't comment on that. I would imagine generally not but maybe in some cases, depending on the specifics of the case.

The WPATH leaks are a nothing burger.

This ideology is bizarre to me.

Anyone would think they didn't know what "acting" is.

This is as creepy as hell . . . and TBH as that young actress's parents, I would not have wanted my child touched by "Kitty" even on her shoulders, even as part of the role, even while being chaperoned by an entire production crew. It just sends the wrong message to my jaundiced eye.

I'm not saying "Kitty" or the person who plays "Kitty" is in any way untoward or in any way a danger in themselves - but the scene is normalising a boundary being crossed that shouldn't be.

If a double mastectomy is what he decides to do, I hope that the surgery is available at the appropriate time without him being subject to the distress of a long waiting list.

Have you read them?

I assume complaints should be aimed at Ofcom?

What did the parents say? I hope you watched it so I don't have to 😄

Glad to see you correctly sexed this child, btw

There is an awful lot to read, so not all of them, but that article helps explain why they don't say what the far-right editorialiser says they say.

They certainly don't seem to have troubled the media, outside of the usual suspects.

I know me too, imagine thinking it is ever the right choice to castrate a boy who has gender confusion.

Grim.

He's read that. It's why he used exactly the same terminology.

Hands on shoulders? Are you actually serious?

A little less exhausting than a life of continuous medication, surgical mutilations and the serious health fall out from that. The callousness of your approach towards a confused young person is noted.

Have you read them?

Big lolz at Dadjoke's "source". Whether TRAs call them a "nothingburger", they are, like this Hollyoaks scene, quite shocking to people not buried deep in genderism.

Accepting someone's identity and supporting their transition is not callous.

Well, I would apologise for getting the pronouns wrong, but fictional character.

I can do better than tell you:

What we don't get is their reaction, but I am not willing to watch any more.

Then we get a bunch of idiot responders confusing "I am a boy because I have short hair" with "I've cut my hair short because I am a boy."
