What is the best way to balance an individual’s right to express their identity with the need to protect them from possibly making irreversible choices too early?

Provide adequate gender therapy and informed consent.

i believe people under 20 should not be allowed to decide what they are and who they like.

Allow minors to use puberty blockers and let them start transitioning at age 16?

Expand the medical sector, and have the age of transition be sixteen.

no gender transition for children or letting bio men in woman spaces

everyone has their right to express their gender but they should be well informed before doing it.

getting changing surgery at 18 when they are an adult but they can still freely express themselves before that

Just dont do it you are born with a XX or XY chromosome

I think a way to balance an individual's right to express their identity with the need to protect them from possibly making irreversible choices too early is to make them go through a proccess of mentaly transitioning them before physicaly transitioning them so they get the feel of what it will be like before they go through with it.

they should do want they want but limit the topic in front of children

Once an individual has reached the age of majority, they ought to be able to do as they please. It's none of my business.

I think such a a choice, is a personal one, and the federal government should not step in unless the choice is being made for people under age of 18.
