A federal appeals court on Tuesday allowed Indiana’s ban on gender-affirming care to go into effect, removing a temporary injunction a judge issued last year.
The ruling was handed down by a panel of justices on the 7th Circuit Court of Appeals in Chicago. It marked the latest decision in a legal challenge the American Civil Liberties Union of Indiana filed against the ban, enacted last spring amid a national push by GOP-led legislatures to curb LGBTQ+ rights.
idk why you’re being down voted as if one can’t get plastic surgery till they are 18 this should be the same personally imo because you’re right kids can and do make very rash decisions
That’s because you don’t understand what you’re talking about. These kids are not having plastic surgery. They’re getting care that affirms their gender, and possibly puberty blockers, which are easily reversible.
And also kids absolutely can have plastic surgery
Four things: 1) cis teenagers can and do have cosmetic surgery 2) they’re very different, cosmetic surgery rarely requires psychological oversight or anything of the sort unlike trans surgeries and cosmetic surgeries don’t treat an underlying condition unlike trans surgeries 3) this isn’t just banning surgery but also hormone treatments 4) this is going against expert opinion and the wishes of the affected to prohibit medical treatments
