No, not when that involves drugging a perfectly healthy child or mutilating them. This is a mental illness, and should be treated as such.
If my lad came to me and said “Dad, I want to be a girl” I wouldn’t support their fantasy, I’d do what any responsible parent would do and tell them the truth, it’s not possible. Then I would seek psychological help for them. However, that would never happen as I’m an attentive parent who brought my kids up properly with a good education, discipline, morals and respect.
Then i ask..Are YOU a professional in that field of medicine? Its a parents right to do what their child is recommended to be done. And we know its not possible to be a 100 genetic girl/female. Appereance wise its possible to change SEX,not gender. They do not recognize gender dysphoria as a mental illness either.
Ive said before in previous threads that transsexual people should always wait till they are 18 and after counseling like they used to be made to do.
I really wish they would stop saying transgender when its actually SEX that needs changing.
Stop letting the minority of trans people label all of us the same.

Better to be a snowflake rather than a pedophile or groomer. I intentionally troll these threads to out you sick coonts. Another child abuser added to the list.
The needless drugging and mutilation of children should make everyone mad. Seems there’s not many of us willing to stand up and call you freaks out for what you are.

So you think children can change their sex?
You didnt read i said they should wait till 18 to change their sex ?
SEX is NOT GENDER Biologically speaking.
Sex is your BODILY PARTS. A penis,makes you MALE,a vagina makes you FEMALE. After sex change surgery your junk is reflective of the sex you were transistioning to.
If you could not change your Sexual organs to be female or male the government would not recognize it and not grant many who have undergone sex change surgery the designation of male or female.

I hate to be the bearer of bad news but sex is more than your penis or vagina. It's your hormones, your chromosomes, your bone structure, your muscle density, and your DNA.
Also removing skin from your arm and attaching it to your crotch in a phallic shape, does not a penis make. Nor does slicing open your penis and flipping it inside out then pretending it's a hole make a vagina.
ETA:
The government can say whatever they'd like about what your sex is. Doesn't change the truth. They can call fruits vegetables and vegetables, fruit, but at the end of the day they are one or the other regardless of government classification.

the Gov trumps your opinion on this. man and woman before modern science were only so by outward appereance.
No. Humans cannot change sex, which was determined at fertilization (genotype) and during embryonic development (phenotype)

I’m not the one deluding myself. Every cell in your body refutes the claims you’re making.
The only opinion that counts is the one who said to not judge,liek you are doing now. And after God the government who controls all birth records and legally decides who is what sex,regardless of your opinions. that must really tick you of,to know you are powerless to do anything but bitch at someone different than you. How sad and pitiful.

Did you just invoke God into this debate as if somehow what you’re claiming is backed by a moral authority.
Come back and take the high ground once a biological man gives birth to a child or when a biological woman starts producing sperm. Until then you’re nothing more than a mentally ill, delusional, imposter who can’t accept basic facts.
Your chromosomes, skeleton and gamete production are the fundamental flaws in the argument which you’ll never overcome without some play with semantics and fantasy.
I will not bend in order to placate your clear fantasy and delusion.
If you’re really the sex you claim to be then what’s the need for medical procedures and therapies in order to “appear” the sex you claim to be? I’ll tell you why, it’s an attempt to validate and legitimise your delusion.

Scientifically speaking SEX is male or female,not gender. Thats what you are not grasping. You can change your APPEREANCE to look like the sex you think you should be. we know we cant change our DNA. Were not all freaking stupid ya know like the majority of you people seem to think. SHesh. most transsexuals do not even try to go in the alternate bathrooms, or anything else noticable to draw attention . Its only the freaking idiot minority of us who draw attention you people always say represents us,and its simply not true.
And I personally am not going to even try to change my outward appereance because I will NEVER be able to pass and would always have son of a bitches crawling my arse day in and out over someting I had no freaking control over in my brain. Thats what is so ******* irritatting you normal people will never grasp because ya too busy looking down your dam noses to see how this effects only you and your little fee fees, Or your future children...WHo I might add will be little bigoted jag offs just liek momma and daddy most likely.
Oh im so insecure i cant stand the thought of maybe hitting on a girl with a penis that i might be called gay i have to hate on everyone who is freaking different because it dont fit your limited definition of the world. IF you guys really gave a crap you would actually try to freaking listen instead of spouting of holier than thous opinions on a message board.
get off you high horses and grow the **** up. Most liek me just want to be left alone and able to do what we need to do for our own sanity and happiness. Screw the noisy wannabes who pretend to have the same issues and jumped on the bandwagon,and screw everyone else who cant mind their own freaking business.

Seems some people think that if you're a woman all you need to do to become a man is cut out and cut up various organs, fill yourself with hormones and graft on some skin from an appendage onto your groin in the shape of a penis.
I would argue that having a mastectomy, hysterectomy and genital surgery on perfectly healthy body parts makes you less of a woman, but certainly no more of a man.
Once again and finally for those in denial or hard of hearing. Chopping up your genitals and filling yourself with drugs has no bearing on your biological sex.

No human hermaphrodites ever existed on this planet--
To be a hermaphrodite you must have the repoductive organs of both sexes-- as a result you can get pregnant and be able to impregnate other humans-
Is this sarcasm?
..because it is false
Hermaphrodites are not all that uncommon
Hermaphrodites with both packages fully functional is very rare, but do exist.
I know a kid right now. She has testicles inside and the other part is normal.
The doctor says she won't be able to reproduce normally as an adult.
Hermaphrodites are in a bunch of weirdo porn too...someone said..lol
I find the topic interesting. Is it more than a birth defect ?
Or could it be an adaptation?
People are not hermaphrodites. Due to inadequate levels of testosterone while in the womb or the lack of certain enzymes during puberty, humans can be intersex individuals. Intersex individuals have external genitalia that do not match the sex of their internal reproductive system. It is rare, however, for this sex development disorder to occur among humans. And although some intersex adults can have children of their own following reconstructive surgery, other intersex adults are infertile.

There is no such thing.
You were born a male or a female.
Very few are hermaphrodite.
When you are long dead and they find your remains, they will know you as a male or a female.
Why do you seek to redefine yourself as something else?
You were born perfect.
It takes a lifetime to get to know oneself.
Why do you reject what you are in order to identify as something other than what you were born as?
And for those who are members of this prideful group whose name is riddled with meaningless letters, why do you demand acceptance for something you know is off-putting to many?
Understand their comfort in the norm.
Do not push your oddity unto them demanding acceptance, then act surprised at backlash.
Physically altering your body with surgery or chemical injections is not the answer you seek.
It will not bring you the peace you seek.
Only knowing and accepting yourself as you are will.
This is not a reproach.
I am simply expressing myself.
I do not understand this modern movement.
I am concerned for the young who may be fooled into this mindset by the colorful parades and claims of "love and acceptance" when they display quite the contrary.
Edit: I may have meant transgender. I see no difference. I admit I am ill informed on the matter as I consider the whole thing to be of little value.

You made a completely false claim. There are too human hermaphrodites.
We used to call them hermaphrodites
And even a person of one gender or the other, who has reproductive organs, might not be able to produce offspring. You have heard of infertility problems, I trust.
Is a person who is intersex a hermaphrodite?
No. Hermaphrodites don’t exist. That is an outdated term implying that a person is both fully male and fully female, which isn’t biologically possible. In fact, many people who are intersex consider that term derogatory and stigmatizing. Intersex and being intersex are the correct terms.
