So the answer is yes, you think kids should be able to transition at any age, if the "context" is correct.

There are actual 6 year olds being transitioned in California right now and that's OK as long as the "context" is right?

It's not complicated at all. It's state sanctioned child abuse. It should be stopped.

We will look back at this time as a dark period of human history.

At this point I genuinely wonder if you do it on purpose or if you genuinely don't understand.

It may be (or it may not be, I don't know) that transitioning at 6 is always a bad idea: the age is part of the context. "Part of" meaning that the context is made of other things.

> It's state sanctioned child abuse. It should be stopped.

I understand that you believe it, you keep repeating it. The fact is that if you can't understand the nuance between "It should not be forbidden before 18" and "It should be allowed for everyone below 18", then surely you don't have a clue about the context that would make it okay to transition someone.

People who genuinely believe they are the smartest because they can formulate their strong and uninformed opinions is admittedly a big problem these days.

The answer is yes, it is always a bad idea. Your fake nuance is just a veil for complete lack of respect for children. There is absolutely no reason you should transition a 6 year old kid. There is no context that exists for that kind of irreversible damage at such a young age.

They can't even consent to it, just like they can't consent to a whole host of other things.

Actually I started reading more about it, and it is most definitely not always a bad idea. You just don't seem to know how to read (or think, for that matter) properly.

At 6, it's not irreversible. Even according that the article you linked yourself, surgery almost never happens before 18, the exceptions being sometimes 17 or 16 (not 6).

Some things are done a 6 (or earlier), called "social transitioning" first, and this is not irreversible at all.
