[quote=Gaia][quote=Anonymous]Medical intervention (hormones and surgery) is pretty drastic. What do you think transgendered people should have to do before using medical intervention (eg turn 18, mental health evaluations, etc)? Esp curious about how you think parents should handle treatment and intervention for transgendered minors. [/quote] The correct term is simply transgender, not transgendered. There are already guidelines in place that you must follow before transitioning, and I agree with them. Before I could start on hormones, doctors made sure that I fit the criteria. My doctor had me live as a woman for six months (using she/her pronouns, wearing traditionally women's clothing, using the new name I chose for myself) before he would prescribe the hormones.
