That’s another good point. I hadn’t thought of this sort of emotional reason for taking puberty blockers. There’s also just the usual puberty confusion that may cause kids to think of blocking puberty as a “solution” to unease, and they gain social status and special treatment based on “oppression” at the same time.

Yeah, the social clout that's come with transitioning is really scary. A lot of these kids seem to have other issues going on but instead they're encouraged to take carcinogenic hormone "therapy" and undergo pointless surgeries by these cheerleaders who abandon them as soon as they regret their decision. It's really sad.

I had enough problems as a kid without having to deal with stuff like this. Now everything seems like more of a nightmare.
