FYI trans children are not new and minors have been transitioning in the US for the last 50 years. It's only more recently that it has been turned into a vile political issue by the right.

As a transgender person who was once a child but was not aware of the possibility of transitioning back then, I would have loved the opportunity to do so.
- blindmute 5y agoNice try, but unfortunately I'm one of those people who reads books about topics they disagree with. I've read that book already, and it's disingenuous bordering on a lie to imply that what was happening decades ago to children as cited in that book is at all close to modern full transitions, nor were the motivations the same.
