Tbh I feel like social transition is acceptable at any age and medical transition warrants like a year of therapy just so you can talk things out so yk what you want. Not if you want it or not but what medicals would be right for you.
maybe it’s just me, but it feels like such a psyop when I hear other trans people say stuff like “minors can’t consent” when talking about gender-affirming care. babe you’re trans and should know that GAC is medical care and not a damn cosmetic surgery 😭

I don’t think this is a bad idea but I will say that I think puberty blockers should be available with far less limits just so they can get them asap and prevent more of their unwanted puberty while they figure out if fully transitioning is right for them.

understandable if it’s considered a necessary part of diagnosis + backed by quantitative studies - OP

I do agree with that. Some things are irreversible once puberty sets in and blockers can help put that off until someone is certain on what they want to do

I could understand this, my thought process would be they could start blockers the soonest, get therapy and start social transitioning while figuring things out, then maybe a few months at the earliest could start E/T once they’re more certain it the right choice for them n then that way once they’re more matured/legally allowed consent medically on their own, they’re able to start other procedures they might want almost immediately
