“Affirming”. Another made-up leftist term.
In order to affirm something, it has to be established first. By whom, a child (or an activist adult)?!
Indeed. As with "affirmative action," certain forms of racial prejudice became sanctioned by law. In the case of "affirming" the sterilization of both males and females, the Islamic tradition of slavery, eunuchs and female genital mutilation of barbarous tribal traditions is no different.
These transgenderists "affirm" mutilation and sterilization, and plenty of cosmetic surgeries scoop up the law-mandated insurance payments. Simple corruption and basic perversion united.
