Seven. Seasons.So what makes people think Jazz’s brain is in some state of rėtardation?
I'm not an endocrinologist, but Lupron is associated with an increased risk of dementia. I think that's where people are getting the whole damaged brain thing, in combination with the social intelligence we get from typical hormonally driven adolescence.Imma change the subject a bit. People say Jazz’s puberty suppression made him a permanent child, etc. however, he’s off those drugs now, right? His puberty was only suppressed until the point he went on full estrogen?
I know a person who had precocious puberty (started at about 5) and was on Lupron and other medications for a few years. She went off when having breasts and secondary sexual characteristic wouldn’t be impossible for her-maybe at age ten.
Her health has not been perfect tbh, but her brain is fine. She was a professional dancer for a while, then married and had a few kids. She’s normal.

Good luck going through any form of puberty after they cut off the junk producing required hormones and having only substitutes for a real thing and even then it's ones not meant for your biology.Imma change the subject a bit.

Blockers at that age isn't too bad as she is the type of person that they should be for. Around the appropriate age she was allowed to have been weaned off them in a safe manner and her body could release their intended hormones in a natural manner.Imma change the subject a bit.

I dunno. I've seen a few things indicating that depression (clinical depression) is correlated with a decrease in "performance IQ" but luckily it seems you gain it back when the depression is treated.I've wasted more time than I care to admit watching television, and Jazz doesn't strike me as intellectually disabled, just very anxious and depressed with low social intelligence.
Apparently all the TRA publicity about "pausing" puberty is fake. Exulansic has a great video on it.People say Jazz’s puberty suppression made him a permanent child, etc. however, he’s off those drugs now, right? His puberty was only suppressed until the point he went on full estrogen?
Because he literally is. Retardation means to be delayed and Jazz hasn't had a normal development and he's about ten years behind.So what makes people think Jazz’s brain is in some state of rėtardation?
Puberty blockers have been linked to drops in IQ less than one standard deviation, so they don't make people retarded but they do seem to make them less than they could have been. Lost potential is harder to measure than outright damage, if you give a kid these drugs and they turn into a drooling vegetable that's pretty clear cut but if they grow up seemingly normal and have an unspectacular life, it's harder to point out where things went wrong. You can't prove they would have achieved more. That woman you know may have the same problem but she's still within the normal range so the difference isn't detectable. She also had the benefit of being allowed to go through natural puberty when it was appropriate, Jazz never did because his male body had to try to make do with horse piss estrogen.Imma change the subject a bit.

Yeah, there's also the issue of him not having a lot of friends in high school. Prom was ruined because his troon friend had a scripted PTSD episode. He was home schooled instead of learning how to grow thicker skin. And now he just went from filming random commercials to being thrown into Harvard.Because he literally is. Retardation means to be delayed and Jazz hasn't had a normal development and he's about ten years behind.
On top of that, he's not been exposed to scenarios most kids his age are. These scenarios help them to learn how to properly behave and act in society.
Jazz acts like a 12 years old brat, male or female, doesn't matter. And he need attention in a way many kids don't, he's basically a child star.
To be clear, I was referring to Jazz and Sander, not you, when I said they should log off if they cannot grow a thicker skin.I don't need to log off because of the opinion these dumb faggots are worse than the dumb faggots they're picking on.
I think the people who need to log off are the people who think they're any better than Jazz, or that they would be strong enough to rise against this kind of tide.
You don't outlaw "internet bullying," but you don't wordlessly tolerate people acting like retards either.
The difference is that your friend was allowed to go through puberty. The flush of estrogen / testosterone triggered by puberty are central to brain development in the areas of emotional regulation in particular, and also in terms of long term decision making and understanding the long term future consequences of immediate actions in the present. All traits that adults have, but children (and I dare say Jazz) do not.Imma change the subject a bit.

No he's not, and AFAIK he started oestrogen and blockers at 13 and now he is on oestrogen pills and have to take them until he dies, if Jazz has brain rǝtardation it's becauseSo what makes people think Jazz’s brain is in some state of rėtardation?
I wish we could use this word more often because it's actually very helpful.Retardation means to be delayed and Jazz hasn't had a normal development and he's about ten years behind.
That's just one of the many things that is endlessly repeated on here (along with, did you know, Jazz is fat?), often without ever having watched the show.So what makes people think Jazz’s brain is in some state of rėtardation?
What happened to Jazz was tragic, but who says we can't laugh at tragedy? Tragicomedy exists for a reason: sometimes the worst evil of the world is so absurd that you just can laugh. In the book, people do laugh at Carrie White during the prank because as cruel as it was, there is some funny aspect to it.
You mention that your friends health hasn’t been the greatest. You don’t elaborate, but when Lupron was used for a while to treat endometriosis, and when it was used more frequently for precocious puberty, some of the long term health problems were found to include:
Bones not fusing properly
Damage to connective tissue
Migraine and chronic pain
Emotional dysregulation
Cardio / pulmonary issues
Chronic inflammation
Much longer term, suspected greater vulnerability to stroke and cancer
