Report: U.S. 'outlier' among Western nations in transgender 'care' for children

The U.S. is an “outlier” among Western nations in providing body-altering drugs and surgery to children who identify as transgender, as concern grows in the scientific community about the results of such treatments.

Described by many Democratic politicians as “gender-affirming care” for “trans kids,” puberty-blocking drugs and sex reassignment surgeries at a young age may not reduce psychological distress, and may have long-term and irreversible consequences that children cannot factor into their decision-making at a young age.

The Wall Street Journal reported Monday:

The U.S. is becoming an outlier among many Western nations in the way its national medical institutions treat children suffering from distress over gender identity.

For years, the American healthcare industry has staunchly defended medical interventions for transgender minors, including puberty blockers, which suppress the physical changes of adolescence as a treatment for those distressed over their gender.

The European medical community, by contrast, is expressing doubts about that approach. Having allowed these treatments for years, five countries—the U.K., Sweden, Finland, Norway and France—now urge caution in their use for minors, stressing a lack of evidence....

Just a few days later, the UK restricted transgender treatments for children — a fact the White House struggled to explain.

Europe has figured out that, no matter how angry a mom gets, she still DOES NOT have the right to cut the pecker off of her little boy, just to spite her Ex.

Someday we may figure out the same, but given the near UNANIMOUS support for the above by the Democrats, it may be a while.

Let’s see..Lowest age of consent for marriage in usa is 15 (only with parents consent). Long guns age restriction is 1i. Handgun 21. Driving a car 16-21 Depending on state. Buying tobacco products until 21 years. Floating a bank loan usually about 18.
But if a kid is 12 they can agree to have a stranger knock them unconscious, touch their genitals, remove their genitals, cover up the surgery with reconstruction, and administer drugs which antagonize normal.physiological function. All without patents consent and knowledge. Facilitated by school teachers, medical personnel, and doctors. Think about the lack of logical consistency. Can you imagine the cover up for rapes, torture, and mutilation which can occur by just video recording the child asking for the procedure. One can convince a kid to say it...then use it as a justification for harming the child.
Next step is finding a depressed and confused kid asking to die, and someone killing them for a fee.

The simple explanation is the ethics & morality of our major establishments and institutions has collapsed. Government, education, medicine, corporate boardrooms have corrupted. It's all about the money now, not caring who they hurt or kill to get it. Welcome to the Rule of Man, be sure your tray is in the upright position, gonna be a hell of a ride.
