No shite. But do you honestly think a Republican elected rep didn't already know 1000% his voters would want him to vote against a youth transgender transition bill?

Why would you trust studies considering the political pressures and profit at play?
The more money at stake, the more likely the studies are corrupt.

Yeah that's a stretch for me as well. But if thats what they wanna do and they are a consenting adult, not my problem.
This thread is not about adults. Quit moving the goalposts.

I believe care by professionals is the best chance some of these kids have of deciding that the problem isnt that rhey are the "wrong gender"
You should have said "mental health care by mental health professionals". "Care by professionals" is waaaay to general and includes the group of people pushing the gender transition treatment to minors. I suspect you knew that and were trying to sneak that in.

Medication treatments while going through therapy and counciling can convince them that the problem isnt theie genitals. Whereas if you take that away they will be more likely to just countdown til they are 18 and then immediately elect to get surgery.
Way too general again (I know it's intentional) "Medication Treatments" should not be puberty blockers or Testosterone for girls. WTF is wrong with you?

What percentage of males put on puberty blockers as adolescents are impotent as adults?

Slippery slopes happen. Sometimes you have to vote on principles, of which this joker apparently lacks.

You are the one that brought up changing from boys to girls. That has only been done to adults in Louisiana. There have been 0 surgeries to change the sex of a minor.
Which is why I keep using the term medical treatment. The only treatments performed on minors in Louisiana are non-surgical.

I did no such thing. I said:

Drawing the line at surgical is the wrong place to draw the line. However, certainly no surgical procedure should be allowed.

This seems to happen more than it should. Wasnt there another bill recently with trans sports where a few Republicans no showed?

because this law doesn't just prevent surgeries, it prevents all treatment.
if they rewrite it to only prevent surgeries i'm all for it.
Puberty blockers are chemical castrations. It's just as catastrophic and permanent as lopping it all off and inverting it.

I’ll ask again for funsies for anyone who wants to take a crack at it.
What percentage of boys who start puberty blockers as adolescents are impotent as adults?

Dang Hank. Didn't expect that one to get you. This was an easy statement to make but it stumped you lol.
If it's law then legal action can be taken. If it's not law then..?
So let's just have a law on the books for when we have an instance to prosecute. Or let's have the law to prevent the first.

Dr. Marci Bowers, a vaginoplasty surgeon who herself transitioned when she was 38, spoke recently at a virtual conference hosted by Duke University. “Every single child or adolescent who was truly blocked at Tanner Stage 2 [when hormones begin their work of advancing a child to adulthood] has never experienced orgasm. I mean, it’s really about zero.”

Sounds very compassionate.

I was referring to the bone density side effects, but yeah, fertility and sexual function too. Especially if the blockers are used with hormone therapy.

Freddy Mills… the most blatantly closeted fig and phony “Republican” in the whole Louisiana Legislature. What an a-hole.
Posted on 5/26/23 at 8:59 pm to CamdenTiger
He threw his good pal JBE a bone. Guarantee you JBE promised to help him with something after Mills is out of office.

People should boycott his pharmacy and bank.
