You see, you are moving the goalposts. The first stance was that women were somehow being cheated because Transgenders exist. Now that that argument has failed, you go back to 'It's for the children". Which I would be impressed with if your side wasn't constantly trying to slash education funding and poverty programs to give tax breaks to rich people.
Not because they exist. Because men have very strong advantages in certain competitive sports, over women, and the only way women can have any reasonable chance in such sports is to compete in events that re limited to women.
Men claiming to be
“women”, competing in women's sports against actual women, is just plain cheating.
Here's the thing, I would be all for stricter scrutiny on gender affirming care, to make sure you aren't giving drugs or surgery to some teenager who just wants to be edgy and annoy his or her parents.
What your side wants is all gender affirming care banned for minors, even if it is clinically needed, because you think that Transgenders are icky.
Youi have to be seriously fucked in the head to think that there is any legitimate basis for what you call
“gender affirming care”, especially when it is applied to children.
A boy is not a girl. That is a hard, undeniable, immutable, scientific fact. Likewise, a girl is not a boy.
To brainwash a boy into thinking that he is a girl, or vice versa, is just plain wrong. It is abusive, and anyone who has any willing part in it needs to be criminally prospected for child abuse.
That is even before we get to the harmful, quasi-medical Frankensteinery to
“affirm” the false gender, procedures that give no actual benefit at all, and which can cause serious irreversible harm to a child. That is what you are trying to defend, what you are trying to condemn sane people for opposing. This is a Josef-Mengele-level of fucked up. No surprise, coming from you, a proud scion of the same degenerate culture that produced Josef Mengele.
