Stop messing with children's natural development and help them accept who and what they are instead.
It will solve 99% of all gender issues.

The guys I knew in High school would NEVER fit in a transgender. But might have found out if the Tranny would fit inside a football locker

Using powerful hormones with HORRIBLE effects to support a child’s delusion (perhaps a delusion reinforced by parents and/or peers) is child abuse!!!!

This transgender movement misses the obvious.

They will give a boy FEMALE hormones to turn him into a girl...why not try MALE hormones FIRST....

A logical medical application wouldn’t be politically correct I suppose.

How about old-age, or male and female meno-pausal blocking medication? Now, that would be a big seller!

(I know, more difficult problem.)

Why not let the glands determine the hormone levels instead. Seems to have worked well for millennia.
