This idea that there is this huge population of progressive parents out here trying to push physical sex changing surgeries and force hormone treatments on young children is insanity. I know a lot of progressives. I know a lot of progressive parents, people who make me look like a conservative by comparison, but I don’t know a single progressive parent pushing this nonsense. I can say confidently that idk a single parent, nor have I personally heard of a single parent who would approve of such a permanent surgery for a young child. Most progressive parents I know just let their children dress however they like, without regard for gender norms and try to be respectful to their children’s name and pronoun preferences (most kids don’t think about shit like this, which is only right. Just let them be kids, for gods’ sake). Even in conversation, most parents I’ve spoken to about this have said they might consider having a conversation about hormone treatment when their child is an older teenager if that child came to them about it and was able to actually understand what is going on.

Long story short, progressive parents aren’t advocating this as a whole, and those groups that you hear about pushing this are probably people in the medical industry trying to open up a new market of services, purely to make money. Don’t believe the BS. #grownostr
