 Sure. I also won't argue with "walking down the street and punching everyone in the face is physical abuse." But how often do either of these things occur?brianlux said:jimjam1982 said:
 Giving them hormone blockers, mutilating their genitals? Allowing the kid to make decisions is mental abuse.Halifax2TheMax said:

 Stop abusing minors.
 Adults can do whatever the fuck they want.
 Re-home them - they are better off in an orphanage then with a shitty mom trying to make her son a girl. It's sickening. 11 year olds shouldn't be able to say i wanna be a girl then chop his dick off. Fuckin sick man. People supporting this are just mind blowing how far they fallen. Disgusting topic.
 Once they turn 18 they can make whatever decisions they want. I don't really follow gender identification if you are a dude who wants to pretend you a girl that is your right as an American. I support your right and decision, but you are still a dude. Who cares really what adults do."Giving them hormone blockers, mutilating their genitals? Allowing the kid to make decisions is mental abuse."That, to me, seems hard to argue against. They may do these things, but we don't allow kids smoke or drink or have sex or drive before a certain age or go to war (etc.), so why would we allow them to take those kinds of meds or cut up their privates? That would not make sense, so I agree with you.
 I don't know, but as an adult, I've been assaulted twice, so I hope I am the exception to the rule. I would also hope the same for kids being given hormone blockers and having their genitals mutilated.

 For the last part is not what i said. Let the Trans People make these decisions. Get a group and ask them. They went through it. It's not so far fetched to ask someone whom went through the ordeal and ask them for insight.Halifax2TheMax said:

 I'm interested in knowing what part of the process or state of trans-gender the poster considers abuse. Do you have any thoughts on that? Because, you know, BOO!
 The poster is going to give some way off answer that will lead to more of nothing. It brings zero to the discussion because it won't be one.
 My thoughts? I don't understand it. I'm hetero or cis , straight. These thoughts don't cross my mind and i don't think anyone who isn't trans should make these decisions for them.
 What are your thoughts on the poster that I replied to calling it "abuse?" RIF.
 Only trans parents and trans medical professionals can make decisions for trans kids? Really?
 What I'm getting at is people like you and myself shouldn't be making these decisions
 What are my thoughts about the poster? 2nd sentence. The poster is going to give some way off answer that will lead to more of nothing. It brings zero to the discussion because it won't be one.

 “This line ‘wouldn’t fly’ in today’s society?” Geeze, it’s still played on the radio, sold on vinyl in record stores and quoted on a rock band’s website. C’mon man, it’s not like it’s been cancelled.tempo_n_groove said:

 So no, this line would not fly in todays society. There was a representative recently that was chastised for it. With all the reading you do, this hasn't come off as a "no no" word now? You are out of touch.
 Yes it's still in print because it's an older song and most people understand that. If you tried using it in a song today it would not fly...0

 In my world, parents don’t have to be trans, nor do the health care providers that the parents may take their potentially trans child to see. This issue is solely between the parent(s), their child and the healthcare providers they choose to consult with. Not the church, not the government, not the libs of tick tok and not you. Full stop. But sure, make it about me, joker.
 I still haven’t seen a response about which part of the process is abuse of a child and how many parents have been charged with child abuse or neglect as it relates to this particular issue that, according to some, is sweeping the nation and turning our kids gay.

 I'm interested in knowing what part of the process or state of trans-gender the poster considers abuse. Do you have any thoughts on that? Because, you know, BOO!
 The poster is going to give some way off answer that will lead to more of nothing. It brings zero to the discussion because it won't be one.
 My thoughts? I don't understand it. I'm hetero or cis , straight. These thoughts don't cross my mind and i don't think anyone who isn't trans should make these decisions for them.
 What are your thoughts on the poster that I replied to calling it "abuse?" RIF.
 Only trans parents and trans medical professionals can make decisions for trans kids? Really?
 What I'm getting at is people like you and myself shouldn't be making these decisions
 What are my thoughts about the poster? 2nd sentence. The poster is going to give some way off answer that will lead to more of nothing. It brings zero to the discussion because it won't be one.
 In my world, parents don’t have to be trans, nor do the health care providers that the parents may take their potentially trans child to see. This issue is solely between the parent(s), their child and the healthcare providers they choose to consult with. Not the church, not the government, not the libs of tick tok and not you. Full stop. But sure, make it about me, joker.

 No hate on the AHD, either.Sorry, I'm not good with acronyms. What is AHD?As for bating/snarkiness/venting, those are all over the place on any forum/ social media. Sucks, doesn't it?

Like some of the lyrics to "Good Evening Mr. Waldheim"Good evening Mr. Waldheim and Pontiff, how are you?
 You have so much in common in the things you do
 And here comes Jesse Jackson, he talks of common ground
 Does that common ground include me, or is it just a sound?
 A sound that shakes, oh Jesse, you must watch the sounds you make
 A sound that quakes, there are fears that still reverberateJesse, you say common ground, does that include the PLO?
 What about people right here right now who fought for you not so long ago?
 And the words that flow so freely falling, dancing from your lips
 I hope that you don't cheapen them with a racist slip, oh, common ground
 Is common ground a word or just a sound?
 Common ground, remember those civil rights workers buried in the groundIf I ran for President and once was a member of the Klan
 Wouldn't you call me on it the way I call you on Farrakhan?
 And Pontiff, pretty Pontiff, can anyone shake your hand?Or is it just that you like uniforms and someone kissing your hand?
 Or is it true the common ground for me includes you too?
 Oh, oh, is it true the common ground for me includes you too?Good evening Mr. Waldheim, Pontiff, how are you?
 As you both stroll through the woods at night, I'm thinking thoughts of you
 And Jesse, you're inside my thoughts as the rhythmic words subside
 My common ground invites you in or do you prefer to wait outside?Or is it true the common ground for me is without you?
 Or is it true the common ground for me is without you?
 Oh, is it true there's no ground common enough for me and you?
