Adding some points to the puberty blockers thing. It's not even clear if puberty blockers do anything positive for the children that transition.what reversible surgeries are there?,And also puberty blockers are not reversible if you use them to stop puberty! I hate that argument so much. Like yes, theoretically a kid can take lupron for a year and not end up with serious problems, but the goal of any kid going on puberty blocking is specifically not to stop it. These kids believe that puberty will destroy them, so they will avoid it at all costs, and that is where the long term harm occurs! And you see this in the numbers, the vast majority of kids who go on puberty blockers keep going with the transition, because it's all a goddamn placebo effect+magical thinking, and they keep being pushed in that direction by enablers. We don't even have a clear logic for how HRT is supposed to help people outside of helping them pass, but they still think giving it to preteens is lifesaving despite there being no evidence, even in the fucking Netherlands that came up with the idea. Fucking lunacy.
On the peaking thing, I have to say that while I was aware of AGP before coming here (read Darwin's Middle Finger for a really good account of how the trans movement silenced the research into it, plus a bunch of other examples of ideology trumping science), reading the troon acounts here, especially the phrase "euphoria boners" and everything about "cracking eggs", really set me over the edge from a mild distaste, to active opposition and hatred. When you read what they are writing, it's quite clear that it's not just about keeping to themselves and living their lives, it's active recruitment and invasion of women's spaces. I've used some of the screenshots from here to peak a family member. It really is the most effective thing to use what troons are saying themselves.
There is no evidence that it helps their mental health and hormone therapy is not magic, you are still left with a body devoid of a mature sexual reproductive system that ironically makes any further step in transitioning harder. (Remember Jazz's entire problem with surgery?). Also, you are unable to feel any kind of pleasure from sex since those parts never developed and you can't say children don't need that, because they are going to grow up and get partner whom they will be unable to be intimate with.
