    I was diagnosed with low testosterone a few years back. I told my doctor that I had no interest in having pimples and chasing girls when I was well into my 50s. Always had man boobs anyhow.

    HRT and gender affirming care is only being banned from trans people not cis. Cis kids are allowed to go on puberty blockers and trans kids are not for example.

    Nope. Most of those bans are blanket bans. They're banning contraceptives and other birth control methods from state to state. This is targeting Trans kids, but it doesn't require a child to identify trans, it just straight up bans it.

    Because their base doesn't know the difference between a 13 yo trans kid, and a 13 yo cis kid with a hormonal imbalance.
