So much for r/music being full of rebels. Apparently the LGBT community needs to be nicer to people who, wittingly or not, carry water for facists

Don't imagine starting children on HRT is much like prescribing Adderall.
Medicating kids to maintain the acceptable norm and allowing them to break with said norms are pretty much the same thing, right?
Fair point. I dont actually know anything about how a trans kid is assessed, and shouldn't speak to it. I guess what bothers me is that the obtuse dismissal of the possibility of misdiagnosis presumes a level of competence and investment from doctors that I've never seen in my life. Maybe psychs who specialize in transgenderism are different.
From my understanding children diagnosed with gender dysphoria go through most of a decade in doctor and psychiatrist visits before they'll even consider putting someone on puberty blockers.
