Years ago, in one of my college texts there was a discussion about being able to tell if someone had severe psychological issues using, if I recall correctly, PET scans. (Positron Emission Tomography, a tool to measure mental activity and where it is occurring.) The thrust of the discussion was that it was easy and reliable to use this took in adults to detect and diagnose some severe mental problems. The discussion was whether doing so in a non-clinical setting, such as for job placement or determining who could or could not be, say a policeman. But the article mentioned that similar pathological brain activity was so common in teenagers that almost all of them would read on the PET as severely problematic. As they “transitioned” into adulthood their brains settled down to a statistical norm that was not mentally ill. Normal, in other words. The point is teenagers on average do not make rational decisions. This is widely recognized by governments restricting the rights and privileges of underaged people. But it is suddenly okay for a child to decide he wants to chop off body parts so he can pretend to be a woman. Something has gone deeply wrong.
