Yes, but only for non-surgical treatments such as puberty blockers and hormone therapy

no, due to the fact that puberty blockers also affect your body's hormones. kids are very easily persuaded and they should not be able to make those decisions for themselves and the parents sould not have a say aswell

Puberty blockers and hormone therapy messes with a child's development and is not reversible. That's literally what is used to castrate sex offenders (ex:lupron).

 @B3QWQB7 from Quebec  disagreed…1mo1MO

NO puberty blockers and hormone therapy can alter children's development both mentally and physically -permanently! and this should be illegal. Children should not be allowed making life altering decisions like this or given consent by guardians at all. They are CHILDREN. This is a mental health issue!

The Great Progressive Exodus: Inside the Left's War Against Harris

One of the central mysteries of this election has been to what extent the left will defect from Democrats, potentially costing Harris the election with votes for JILL STEIN or CORNEL WEST. Stein is far from concerned about that, NYT’s Matt Flegenheimer captures in a lengthy and dishy profile. For the first time ever, Democrats are launching an ad campaign against a third-party candidate (Stein) over the coming weeks. And even Stein’s own family and friends tell the Times they don’t support her and urged her not to run. Stein, whose “bid can feel precision-engineered to damage Ms. Harris with key subgroups,” pooh-poohs what she calls the “spoiler mythology” and places the blame squarely on Democrats.On college campuses, there are some signs that the left-wing protest movement has quieted from its peak when Biden was in the race — but even a small number of defections from Dems could prove pivotal in a close election.In East Lansing, Zack Stanton reports for POLITICO Magazine that Michigan State student activists furious about the Israel-Hamas war are torn between demanding more from Harris and stopping Trump. In Chapel Hill, WSJ’s Jimmy Vielkind and Cam Pollack find that many pro-Palestinian protesters at the University of North Carolina are nonetheless weighing other issues in their vote, especially abortion rights. But liberal groups are warning that some undecided voters of color still don’t feel like they know enough to be convinced for Harris — and may leave the top of the ticket blank, AP’s Ayanna Alexander reports.
