    Good. Think too many people act like huge hormonal and surgical options are no big deal.

    Seen loads of trans people say they always knew. Well they won’t need to be told if they know.

    The UK has recently done research on the matter and realised that children were not getting the support required for not transitioning.

      That is so wrong.

      I’m 41. Figured it out around 36 because I never had the vocabulary to describe it and understand it. And I was miserable.

      That’s “don’t say gay” bullshit aimed at making us invisible. And you.ve regress from “no pu blocker” to “don’t talk about it”. Nice support.

      Enjoy your youth suicide rate…

      You are so incorrect that I’m amazed you were able to use a keyboard that must have been covered in your own drool. Go get a grip and use it to keep hold of a fucking clue.

          The overview had no mention of a lack of support for “not transitioning” it’s certainly possible I’m missing it or it’s in the full report (which I’ll read when I get a few minutes).

          One mention of the need for corresponding levels of support for de-transitioning and some mentions of increased support for other issues alongside the gender based ones.

          It sounds like OP had a specific section/sections in mind, if this is indeed the report they were referencing I’d appreciate some indication to which part they were referencing specifically.

          “The overview didn’t mention it, but its somewhere in this 232 page report” isn’t the most useful when trying to understand where someone is coming from.

            Yes I’m also not entirely sure what op meant, I assume they will be along shortly to update us.

      A lot of people I grew up with who thought they were trans simply grew out of it. Many of them were pressured into it, or were doing it because they thought they weren’t masculine/feminine enough to fit with societal norms. Or just wanted to be different. I was pressured into it as well when I was younger and made to identify as non binary because “cis men are bad” and I couldn’t be a cis man in that friend group or something. Could have went worse.
