No, it wouldn’t.
It is a legal issue.
Our lawmakers can analyze their own experience, and scientific evidence of maturity, which they have.
The consensus is 18. There are variables. Besides retardation, some are very mature at 16 and some aren’t until they are 20. 18 is about right.
If you have no legal age of majority, then, every time there is a crime, or a responsibility, you have to subject the accused or the responsible for various maturity traits. EVERY TIME.
instead, we say, if you are 18, you are an adult. You have adult responsibilities and are answerable for your behavior as an adult.
Shall a man have to provide for his son until he is 22, or be charged with “child” neglect, because his son is immature? Shall a twelve year old be put in an adult prison? Shall a 14 year old be deemed mature enough to consent to sex with a pimp? Shall a 20 year old gang banger be determined a “child” so he’s not responsible for his murderous ways? I hope not.
18 works. I could take an argument for 17, or 19. If the majority of the country wanted it. But 18 works.
“Any age chosen for the age of majority is arbitrary.”
Right. My point was directed to the concept that everything seems to be A-OK as long as the participants are “adults.” Transgender surgery is never OK. Medical doctors should not destroy perfectly healthy tissue to cater to a mental disorder.
Sick moms and weak fathers. That’s what this is.
Agreed. What happened ti “First do no harm?”
100%. I frankly don't care what an adult willingly does to their body. Bruce Jenner? I could not care less about him deciding to pretend to be a woman at the age of 60. That's on him and I hope he's happy wearing a dress. But what is being done to our children is absolutely criminal. Any parent that is a party to their child's "transgenderism" is a child abuser and a criminal as far as I'm concerned, and they should be treated as such. Jail time and then a lifetime of being on the sexual offender registry. I would not want to live near somebody as sick and twisted like that, who would allow their own children to mutilate themselves and destroy their lives.

What is Gender Dysphoria?
read about it on the link. From what I can tell it’s a serious mental illness. If the mind is so far gone that it can’t accept the fact the person is the gender is the one they were born into they must change it on order to be happy. Now this is Dr. Morgana translating this page.
I can’t believe that many teens and young adults are having this issue. I know what is the common problems that occur amount teens and this would never make the list. Someone has put it in their head and they are falling for it.
