Glad my parents didn't transition me because I once got jealous of my female cousins wearing nail polish when I was like 5.
"really like to thank my parents for not changing my gender when I went through my tomboy phase"

It's potentially hurting kids who are not mentally fit to make such long term decisions about their future.
I do those things. Why do you say I don't do those things? I am 100% supportive of LGBTQ rights and have never voted against them given the chance. I simply think you are full of shit when you say there are no parents who force or influence their children into becoming trans.
You are very defensive about this. And like that moron doctor who spoke before congress, you want to immediately shut down any talk about the stuff. If having your version of reality challenged is so trying to you, maybe you shouldn't jump in the middle of it with exclamations like "only right wingers think some parents help turn their kids trans".
And I do know about the president of Disney because she made it a point to say these things in public. Again...100% of her kids are trans or pans (whatever that is) and you think it's outrageous that someone might think she had something to do with it. Sorry.
You can add a lot of 9's to that. The idea that a parent would even want their child to undergo something like that is more bizarre bullshit from one of our resident whatabouters.
Mind your own ****ing business.
What's your problem? No one is harming your calloused ass with THEIR decisions.
Grow tf up.
Mind your own business does not apply to irreversible decisions being made for children.
That is one of the reasons why sex with children is a crime but isn't with adults.
We have a very conservative poster on this board with a trans kid - which of you assholes think he forced his kid into that decision? Speak up?
Lmao - it's literally none of your business. LITERALLY.
This isn't about sex with children and interjecting pedophilia into a child's sexual identity discussion is asinine.
I'm saying that the government and the populace has a vested interest in setting the boundries of what is acceptable with children.
Yup. Shut it down.
"Hey...if you get called a transphobe, don't respond. Don't open up dialogue. Just accept that you're a piece of shit because someone said so and move on. And if you DO try to ask questions, then, you're basically Hitler."
- signed, every progressive
Seems reasonable.
OOoohhh...I get it now. It's coercion when the crazy liberals kids do it and it's not when conservatives kids do it. And you all are super concerned about the former but super sportive of the latter. All clear now.
Strawman two! Now "Coercion" makes an appearance out of thin air! Keep arguing against the wall. You're the best at it.
And I asked if it was transphobic (as is being said) to suggest a parent had something to do with a transition, and you lost your shit, leading us to here.
Tucker Carlson peed his pants over her, you’ll know who she is when you catch up on the episodes you have taped on your VCR.
That idiots think THIS is what leads to the emotional distress these children experience is beyond reprehensible. People who think like this should be ashamed of themselves but I'm not sure they're capable. The idea that a parent wants a child of a different gender, takes them into the "gender-swap shop" some weekend, and brings home a bright, shiny trans child on Sunday afternoon is mind-numbingly idiotic.
You lost count somewhere. Strawman one was advanced in the OP by Aldean's wife.
Yes, I'm the asshole for not playing make believe with kids and their bodies. You are a sicko if you thin it is alright.
Yes. And it has not one thing to do with a child being potentially trans so what's your point?
If it has nothing to do with a child being potentially trans then why do it?
You are the fascist piece of shit. Hurting kids. **** youYeah, more bullshit examples from punk ass fascists.
Watch: Anti-Trans Jeff Younger Heckled as "Fascist" by Students
Younger, whose run for Texas House was motivated by a battle over his trans child's care, had to cut his appearance at the University of North Texas short.www.google.com
It would be wise for you to keep your deviant fantasies to yourself
Uhhh...whut? It's about teaching your kids they aren't constrained by society's assigned gender roles. You know...women can be doctors or engineers and men can be nurses or *gasp* stay-at-home parents. I would think you would get that.
I don't treat kids you rube.
I agree. So how do we support kids who are struggling in the meantime? We certainly need to put a stop to bullying, hate, and the like. I also agree that 99.999(lot's of 9s per Tar's request)% of parents aren't pushing this nor do they want it for their kids, but it would be foolish to think that there aren't cases where it occurs too early in life.
I think of my own immaturity at varying stages/ages of youth and how I think of things so drastically different than all the versions of my younger self. Bottom line (for me) is I'm not against adults making decisions they believe are best for them; I just think many decisions shouldn't be made as kids. I think @TarponSpringsNole said she made the decision at 26.
Lastly, I don't think there needs to be this "save the children" outcry either. I would only hope to encourage any parents [that I knew personally] of a child with gender dysphoria to wait while also ensuring my own family is understanding of what the family, especially the child, is dealing with.
Experience: I regret transitioning
I saw that it wasn’t being female that was stopping me from being myself; it was society’s perpetual oppression of women
Hundreds of trans people regret changing their gender, says trans activist
A transactivist has claimed that hundreds of have gender reassignment regret the decision and want to return to their original sex.

I also agree with this. We're not talking about a tomboy phase here. This is deep inside someone's being. It's like dad's freaking out that their son is playing with their sister's barbies or tried on their mom's heels. Relax. Breathe.
Assigned gender roles are way outdated. As a father of two daughters, I've raised them both with the notion they can do anything they set their minds to...reach for the stars! I am also raising a son to cook, clean, iron AND change the oil, mow the lawn, and swap out a kitchen faucet. Limitations should be based on ability/aptitude, not race, gender, etc. Of course, I'm preaching to the choir with this response.
