I’m fully just calling the “gender affirming care bans” what they are, bans on trans minors, because somebody on the main subReddit pointed out that the child brides in all of these red states do not have restrictions on ‘their’ boob jobs.

Based on what I've heard, the idea that operations are being performed on children is greatly exaggerated. The VAST majority of those receiving gender affirming care under the age of 18 are 17 year olds whos doctor, mental health professional, parents, and themselves have come to that decision.

Also gender affirming care != surgery

In other words, I'm not sure there is much (if any) data to be studied, despite this being an extremely common talking point.
