What are you talking about? I'm so bewildered by the point you're making. Yes, I know I put that link in my piece. It shows what I'm claiming.

I could have linked to this (https://bioedge.org/beginning-of-life-issues/13-year-olds-given-mastectomies-at-california-clinic/) instead. But I find the image of a doctor advertising her services to kids on TikTok to be particularly repugnant.

I just don't understand this. Why don't you think it's a problem for a doctor to remove the breasts of a perfectly healthy 13-year-old girl? Why do you think it's unreasonable to believe that a decision of that magnitude should wait until her brain has finished developing? She can't even get a tattoo at that age for God's sake! Why do you not see how somebody could object to that for reasons ht have nothing to do with hate? It's insane to me that you're so entrenched that you can see no other possibility.

What basic human rights exactly are you asking for? Is affirmation of your beliefs a human right? Is my belief that there are differences between males and females that can't be erased by hormones and surgery a violation of your basic human rights? Is my belief that children can't consent to life-long medicalisation a violation of your human rights? You use all this emotive, manipulative language, but you never actually say anything meaningful!
