Those crying “my body, my choice” are seeking justice for women, defending it as a basic human right. But it is an unrighteous justice because it involves an injustice to the child who has no choice. An action that requires taking the life of another innocent human being cannot be fundamentally “just” or “righteous”.
Can you imagine the level of potential regret that the current young generation will face? Regretting that you had your breasts or genitals removed while you were a confused young child? Let’s each do our part to prevent healthy children from becoming slaves to Big Pharma for the rest of their lives. Voice your support for HB 1686. Let’s close the door to potential regrets for the next generation.
Do we consider it affirming care to instruct an individual dealing with depression on how to take their own lives? Do we consider it affirming care to instruct an individual dealing with anorexia to exercise compulsively, purge via vomiting and laxatives, and/or binge eat?
Why would we consider it affirming care to encourage a confused adolescent to trade a healthy body to one subject to increased health risks throughout their lifetime. For trans individuals, the quest to create the body that matches their perceptions is a life devoted to drugs and doctors. This is NOT compassionate nor affirming care.
