People like this honestly probably WOULD say that telling 5 year olds that LGBT people exist forcing the adult world onto kids. They see a gay person or a trans person and THEY themselves can only think of the sexual implications, they can’t POSSIBLY think of the humanity within that person.

That’s not a real question. Please stop commenting and read.

They aren’t given puberty blockers with no puberty to block…

And your parents didn’t let you change… but if you went to a therapist and they saw an actual issue not just a kid being a kid but actual gender dysphoria then it becomes different

Gender affirming care can be as simple as the way your hair is cut and changing how people address you. Children start noticing their gender that young so yeah it’s possible that a kid that young should be having some sort of gender affirming care. But that usually is social. Hair cuts clothes and words that match what the kid feels. When they go into puberty it’s puberty blockers if they still feel this way. And it’s all with medical professionals from therapists to medical doctors helping parents navigate these decisions with their kid and monitoring them if puberty blockers do happen down the road.

Wrong. Children as young as 3 and 4 notice gender incongruities. 5 and 6 is when you start asking for your own clothing and hair choices. No one is giving puberty blockers unless they have somehow started puberty that young but to say that this kids aren’t socially transitioning is unfair. The Doctor wouldn’t support this take.

What does marriage have to do with gender affirming care?

Also do you think children on their own decide to get puberty blockers or HRT? You know it’s done after a lot of therapy and discussion with professionals right???

Gender affirming care for a 5 year old is a hair cut a trip to the mall and adults changing a few words in their everyday speech. OH NO THE HORROR

Also gender affirming care for 5 year olds has nothing to do with hormones or puberty blockers…

Ohios maps been being battled over for a while this Gerry meandered bullshit turned my state from purple to red and it’s insane

I agree but the fediverse is built on open source evangelists you aren’t going to get a lot of agreement. I use an iPhone an Apple Watch and AirPods and have a work issued Mac I like them all just fine

I used to watch her. She claims left/moderate depending on the day but is about as “moderate” as Tim Poole

I live in Cuyahoga falls which is considered mostly moderate Republicans. They’ll vote Trump but they aren’t the types you’d see on Jan 6th. They know he is bad but felt lesser of two evils about Hillary and they would mask up when in grocery stores type. Just old white people basically. I saw TONS of no signs and like 2 yes signs so few that me and my girl joked about taking them

Roll your own? The thing is most of us left Reddit because of decisions from ownership. Administration forcing Reddit apps to pay insanely high fees while not fixing the official Reddit app to be more accessible for blind people and to have the tools needed to moderate communities is why we left…

The people that left because of “micromanaging moderators and admins” left when they closed r/jailbait if you wanna invite those creeps back go ahead and make your own

I have the Baratza Encore ESP and have loved it for pour over aeropress and a dedica with a bottomless portafiler

I’m fiscally conservative, but I will work to get people convinced to vote for Biden. You said you would as well. That to me is lifting a finger

I think part of it though is if you at least talk about being willing to vote for him due to the dangers of the current GOP you may sway other communists/socialists who would vote third party to vote for Biden by seeing the good in at least protecting from the current social Neo-conservatism within the GOP.

I voted for Romney because I didn’t like the Johnson wing of the party…. I felt it was a bit to far down the end of burn it all down. He reeled it back in a little bit then I remember a crowd booing him for stating drivers licenses aren’t bad or something and I knew it had gone full unhinged.

As someone who voted Barr-Romney-Johnson-Biden I’m gonna be in the booth pissed I’m voting for Biden again considering the libertarians fully lost the plot and Republicans went full fascist with trump

We have two sphynxes and would very much like a little hairless paw! I will post cute photos in the community as payment if it happens

The one thing I just saw that I wish was different:sphynx cat toe beans
