[quote=Anonymous]I find myself socially fine with it, but really concerned about the long-term effects of puberty blockers and hormones. The process is making artificial bodies from children. This seems... problematic. Very. I would prefer an approach that allowed for people like the "laura" mentioned above: a male-looking person wearing dresses. I mean, we don't make castrati anymore for legitimate reasons. We are against FGM. I don't see much difference. I want to--but everything I've read says the hormones aren't safe. Wasn't there some scandal about giving lupron to autistic kids a few years back? Aren't the side effects in adult women considered to be severe? Just what are we doing to the kids with this stuff, and is there another more body-positive way to approach this?[/quote]
