Comment on Ohio is poised to become 2nd state to restrict transgender health care for adults

Well to be fair, I have never been to an endocrinologist nor sought treatment for gender dysphoria. But I wonder, is this legislation necessary? I think it was written from the perspective of someone who believes young people are deciding over breakfast “I want to be a girl now,” or “I want to be a boy now,” and have changed their wardrobe and gotten hormone injections that afternoon. I don’t believe it happens like that.

But I wonder, is this legislation necessary Since liberals love the Nordic countries, this is more liberal than the Nordic model.

Now I would like to see only the endocrinologist prescribing the hormones and the psychiatrist doing the evaluation. I have not seen the written law to see if they make that distinction.

hormone injections that afternoon. I don’t believe it happens like that. It happens like that very often. When my friend decided to transition, she went to the clinic and was out in under an hour with hormones. PP even praised on their website you can be in and out in under an hour with hormones.

To be clear that law doesn’t stop that for adults. They can still do that.
