Keep it civil. We're all people here. Be respectful to one another.

No sexism, racism, homophobia, transphobia or any other flavor of bigotry. I should not need to explain this one.

Try not to repost anything posted within the past month. Beyond that, go for it. Not everyone is on every site all the time.
-
No unnecessary negativity. Just because you don't like a thing doesn't mean that you need to spend the entire comment section complaining about said thing. Just downvote and move on.

MODERATORS
that's actually a good point, what is relevant for a clinican to evaluate a child's self awareness about their gender? Is being younger than 18 actually empirically relevant to that awareness?
Regardless, let's say we don't trust a kid's self knowledge, how does a cis child know they are cis? Should cis children be forced to take puberty blockers because they don't really know their gender until they are 18? What is the relevant difference for a trans child?
