Talking about Rhetorical Fallacies in my Writing and Critical Inquiry class, my first thought was, "Well, letting trans children physically transition is going to lead to women getting SA'd in the bathroom."
And let me just say: what trans children do you know are physically transitioning? just to get a ballpark for numbers (I'm not saying this is an end-all be all- so don't come for me if the numbers are wrong.)
"The cost of FTM Top Surgery typically ranges from $6,000 to $16,000 USD (as of 2025). However, the price can vary significantly depending on several factors, including the surgeon, their location, and the type of Top Surgery." (topsurgery.net)
according to goodRX, Estrogen supplements are $34 every time you have to refill that (not even my sister's and mom's perscriptions combined are that much.)
and that's just two of the more expensive parts of transitions for both FTM and MTF.
Do you think anyone under 25 can afford that? The cost goes to the parents because the kids don't plan on paying for it (because they're children).
most adults I know can't afford top surgery.
Much less testosterone, bottom surgery, packers, binders, sex change on legal documents-
Do you know how fucking expensive, time-consuming, and difficult it is to change *anything* on a legal document?
So why in the hell do you think that you're gonna have 14-year-old trans boys running around with 16k and a scalpel? Or do you just want to control adults in your life, minding their own business under the guise of "protecting the children"?
