 "It’s not medicine, Matt. The systematic reviews make that clear. “Gender-affirming care” requires stunting a child’s development, permanently altering the body with hormones and surgeries, and often sterilizing the child in the process. Children cannot consent to these procedures—not only because there’s no evidence base supporting them, but also because children lack the capacity to understand the severe, lifelong consequences. A doctor cannot responsibly recommend interventions that have no demonstrated benefit and a long list of known harms and risks. Do. No. Harm. And on top of all that, the entire justification for “gender-affirming care” rests on pseudoscientific premises: that sex is a mutable “social construct” that falls on a spectrum, and that a child’s “brain sex” can somehow be misaligned with their body. This is what proponents literally believe. A lot of left-leaning public figures throw out the line “but it shouldn’t be banned” to seem moderate, but there’s nothing moderate about it. It’s extreme."
