EllieWilliams95 03/06/21 11:10:35 PM #1:	https://www.cbsnews.com/news/alabama-senate-bans-hormone-therapy-surgery-felony-transgender-youth/ Under a new law, transgender youth in Alabama could not be treated with puberty-blockers, hormone therapy or surgery. The state Senate voted to make the treatment a felony on Tuesday. Senators voted 23-4 to approve the measure, dubbed the Vulnerable Child Compassion and Protection Act, sponsored by Republican Senator Shay Shelnutt. The bill now heads to the state House of Representatives, which has already approved a companion bill. The two bills would make it a felony for medical professionals to treat transgender minors under the age of 19 with gender-affirming care. Violators could face up to 10 years in prison or a $15,000 fine. The bill also requires school staff in the state to disclose to parents that "a minor's perception that his or her gender is inconsistent with his or her sex." Essentially, teachers would be required to "out" transgender students to their guardians regardless of whether they are ready to do so. "Children aren't mature enough to make these decisions on surgeries and drugs," Shelnutt told The Associated Press. "The whole point is to protect kids." While similar measures have been considered across the country, Alabama would be the first state to pass such a bill. Parents, members of the transgender communities and medical experts opposed to the bills say it is dangerous, and that lawmakers do not understand the already difficult process to receive gender-affirming care. The bills run "counter to medical science, prevailing standards of treatment for transgender youth, and basic human dignity," the American Civil Liberties Union of Alabama said in a statement. Republicans ruining people's lives as usual. <cite>EllieWilliams95 posted [p:951429198] in Alabama vo...

MrMallard 03/07/21 12:31:18 AM #19:	Criminalizing gender transition is only going to worsen mental health issues in the transgender community. The same way that criminalizing abortion can destroy lives if left to the whim of a doctor who disagrees with it, this law sees that anyone whose quality of life would be improved by this standard of care is left out in the cold to cope with their condition, to the detriment of their physical and mental health. If you disagree with gender transition, then I doubt there's a way of changing your crusty-ass mind. But criminalization isn't the answer. All it's going to do in the long run is hurt vulnerable people. --- I know that you think you're not good for anything, the world makes you feel so small Now Playing: Hyrule Warriors, Old-School Runescape <cite>MrMallard posted [p:951431356] in Alabama vo...

It would be nuts not to have a bill that prevents children from following through with life-altering surgery before they can even understand the ramifications. Wait until you're of age, then make a decision. Cue the kneejerk reaction to this levelheaded response You mean like circumcision? And I'm not sure if you know but being transgender isn't a choice. It's something transpeople have known since they were kids. Hormones are vital for them to acquire the childhood and peace of mind they need. They can also be reversed. Banning it and also requiring outing them is purely due to bigotry. --- #BLM <cite>Snip-N-Snails posted [p:951438399] in Alabama vo...

gunplagirl 03/07/21 8:50:58 AM #43:	The goal of this legislation is to make trans kids lives so horrible that it forces them to either detransition and live in shame, or kill themselves. It doesn't protect the kids to ban any of this stuff. No kid is getting surgery. But puberty blockers have been proven to massively increase their self esteem and reduce risks of suicide. Republicans and anyone else who'd support this bill would only do so if they hate transgender people and seek our eradication from society. --- tfw no big tiddy goth vampire gf who lactates blood - viewmaster_pi <cite>gunplagirl posted [p:951438595] in Alabama vo...
