Re: Puberty blockers

I'm pretty sure that the consent of both parent and child is the standard for prescribing these drugs. I would assume and hope so. I challenge you to find ANY example where this is not the case, unless the child has applied fro "emancipation" as I understand they can in the US? I'm not th...

Re: Puberty blockers

What I will say here, though, is that it's by no means obvious that Transing is a good thing, or that social approval of it will offset the many and horrendous consequences of it. I recall steroids being a thing when I was going to high school. There were a scant few kids who used them and they loo...

Re: Puberty blockers

Doesn't really work when you have a transhausen parent who is determined to have a fashionable 'transchild'. Ever seen Jazz Jenning's mother? She a monstrous abomination. I laid out my opinion as concisely as I could above. If BOTH the child and parent unequivocally want the procedure done to the c...

Re: What could make morality objective?

I did not claim Kant is the absolute and ONLY but rather one of [among a few] the Greatest of ALL times. Who cares? All that matters is the truth of premises and the validity of conclusions. And Kant premises are false, so his argument is unsound. I have stated many times [necessary for cases like ...

Re: Puberty blockers

That's the thing, Gary...and yes, it's sad. You know what's even sadder? The suppression of the "Detransers." These are people who originally fully bought into the lie, and as a consequence, butchered their own bodies and mangled their social and sexual lives, shortened their own lifespan...

Re: Puberty blockers

Close. There's HUGE money in it, for one thing. A full "transgender" surgery costs about 63,000 US dollars. And that doesn't even get into the previous and follow-up treatments constantly needed to sustain it. But I think there's also an ideological motive involved, as well. For some, it'...

Re: Puberty blockers

Apparently caring about this is part of 'extreme right wing' ideology. FFS. People on here are brain-dead. I wasn't disagreeing with you. The abuses usually tie into big businesses seeking profit. It's how corporations work and it can be pretty sick at times. I've worked for corporations before. I ...

Re: Puberty blockers

Here's a mystery. Why would grown men want to promote the non-medical use of puberty blockers on healthy children? Could anyone think of a reason for this? Puberty blockers keep children looking like prepubescent until the age of consent and beyond. Men...prepubescent children... What's the connect...

You are just one Brit, probably the last one, who still believes in God. You are pretty much alone. Why would God help people who do not even believe in him?
Why would God help the evil, unless God is evil?

Re: Islam is evil. Muslims fools.

You completely misunderstand the real situation in Europe. Imagine you try to straighten out one Muslim in the street? That often means that the whole street will come to his aid. So now you need to straighten out the whole street? That means that the whole neighborhood will come to their aid. So, ...

Re: ..

Nah - if you knew the power of GOD. GOD has always been on the side of the British. In all the naval victories over European countries the Europeans believed this and termed England (Albion) -- Insidious Albion. You have no idea you foolish Muslim. The British are getting the picture, the word is s...

Re: Islam is evil. Muslims fools.

If it is the case that Muslims don't want peace, then someone needs to straighten them out. You completely misunderstand the real situation in Europe. Imagine you try to straighten out one Muslim in the street? That often means that the whole street will come to his aid. So now you need to straight...

Re: Islam is evil. Muslims fools.

You talk as if you had any control over these immigrants, while you absolutely don't. They won't listen to you. In fact, they are even right, because your views lead to nowhere. My views lead to peace. I have never had serious problems with anyone who has immigrated to the US from other countries. ...
