Yes kill/castrate/crucify pedos, I agree. But you're still not addressing the bulk of my reasoning as to why creepy weirdo loser guys AREN'T really the reason why girls surgically disfigure their bodies.
I put forth the argument that in a healthy family young girls who begin to develop physically are supported by loving moms, dads, aunts, uncles, siblings, peers, etc, who teach the young girls to have self-value and easily tell these creeps to "fuck off". It's not hard, sexual assault is now a crime.
My heart goes out to young women who don't have that self-worth/support system and so end up hating their bodies, but as you stated sicko pedos have always been around and will continue to be so blaming them is futile. Instead we must instill self-worth into our young ones (girls and boys) and a strong family is essential for this.
While I think you're right to a degree, I think you also have to consider that times are different, and having a strong support system may not be enough, especially for young girls of this generation.
Self worth is important, but self worth does nothing to help how shitty it feels when creeps harass or assault you. If some pervy guy comes up to you, crowds your personal space, starts looking you up and down, and then proceeds to tell you how great your tits look, you're going to feel gross and scared no matter how much self worth you have. Self worth can help you process what was done to you and allow you to acknowledge that it wasn't your fault, etc., but it's not going to make you feel better or safer when you encounter a perverted or dangerous man.
With young girls, it's hard to deal with because their body is rapidly changing, which also means how people treat them is rapidly changing too. One day you're hanging out with boys and having fun, the next day, those same boys are acting weird and staring at your chest. Suddenly grown men are giving you attention and saying things you know aren't supposed to be said. It becomes too easy to blame your body for your misfortune when suddenly you're getting creeped on due to your new bodily changes.
This has been an issue since forever. The difference between now and then is that, back in the day, you'd basically be told to suck it up, this is the reality of womanhood. Maybe you'd be given tips to avoid these situations in the future, and told what to do if it happens again. Most girls learn to begrudgingly accept this reality and more or less just deal with it. Some deal with it better than others, while some girls turn to unhealthy methods of coping such as eating disorders or self harm.
These days, girls are still getting harassed as they always have, but the messaging has changed. Sure, we're told it's wrong for girls to get harassed this way... but girls are more sexualized than ever before, and worse, girls are being told that this is EMPOWERING. This shit has got to be confusing as hell for girls. Imagine going through puberty, being hit on, then being told that it's wrong for men to hit on girls, while
also being told it's empowering to dress like a thot, it's empowering to have kinky sex where you're getting choked or fucked in the ass, and it's empowering to be a camwhore or even a literal prostitute.
At the same time this lunacy is happening, girls are
also being given an option to "opt out" of womanhood. Obviously, this option doesn't actually work, but when you have your peers, your school, celebrities, and even your own government telling you it is a legitimate option, it's no surprise that young girls are lining up in droves to "change" their gender.
This is why I find Dr. Sidhbh Gallagher so evil. It's bad enough that these surgeries are being done to healthy adults, but she does this to shit to children. Dr. Sidhbh Gallagher is a woman herself, she knows damn well what it's like for girls to grow up. She knows damn well that there is no "opting out", there is no way to change sex. Dr. Sidhbh Gallagher specifically targets vulnerable children and does unnecessary and experimental surgery on them because she's a legit evil human being. I hate Dr. Sidhbh Gallagher more than any other troon surgeon.
(Also, as funny as it is to call her Dr. Sneed, I'm spelling her name out so the search engines will find this thread easier. Maybe this thread will prevent some troon from making a huge mistake)
