I'm guessing if you do hormone therapy before puberty, or (as far as I know this would be illegal) surgery even, it would probably cause someone born male to not develop most male traits during puberty. I believe they used to make eunicks that way, to make them keep a high pitched voice for singing etc, prevents body hair from growing and many masculine features are more softened etc.

So....again in theory (I have done zero research), if you did hormone therapy and perhaps a surgery before puberty you could ensure someone was more feminine over all when they got older, and it would require far less effort (and be more effective) if they wanted to live life as a female.

I mean, I get that, but I don't get a 5 year old knowing that...perhaps .....maybe....if it was a desire for years and the child was 10 or so and would hit puberty soon, at least doing a hormone therapy (which could be at least partially reversed) might make sense.

That is as far as I would go with kids though, and even that, I would have MANY discussions first with the child, not in a negative way, but to ensure it was really what they wanted, and why they wanted it.
