Pre Dobbs I don’t think it would be. With the current scotus the crueler you can be the more they support it.

Also as a reminder the shit heads supporting this are the same ones calling for “parents bill of rights” to make sure no uncomfortable subjects are taught in school.

Right. Pubs so worried about CRT being taught to their kids they forget these same kids are doing active shooter drills.

Guns good. Black history bad.

Justs another example, can a state ban plastic surgery?

What other medical procedures could a state ban?

That's an interesting point.
Does a parent have the right to have elective surgery done on a minor child?

 

[Greenman]

Abortion

Perfect example.
So there is president. I wonder if this one will hold up when it gets to the Supremes?

What's funny is in reality we're not talking about surgery. Ethically doctors won't do sex reassignment surgeries on minors. This is really about demonizing trans kids and preventing them from having access to non-surgical interventions that are not irreversible.

 

[Homerboy]

Absolutely fuck this state and these people pushing this agenda.
My heart goes out to those kids and families affected by this draconian bullshit law. I just hope they are strong enough to work through it and not do anything drastic.

Just horrible horrible human beings passing this law.

Good news is gender *surgery* isn't being performed on children. It's a boogey man that the GOP likes to throw around in their culture/religious wars.

Let's say parents were in the process of plastic surgery to correct physical defects. A new law would force to parents to stop. Some physical defects have to wait until children are older to correct.

That doesn't sound constitutional

I had plastic surgery when I was 4 years old. I didn't have any say in it.

It was because I was hit by a car on my 4th birthday and dragged under a car about 100 feet. So there was quite a bit of skin that was gone and I needed some work done on my head.

Why aren't they banning birth control? That's hormone therapy.

That's the exact reason the decision is left up to parents. I thought Pubs were all about parental rights? Or is that just parental rights we tell you?

Yep. This is about hormone blockers and then hormone therapy, which has been done in one form or another on CIS kids for DECADES.

So, guess cleft palate correction has to wait till the kid’s 18?

And…No rhinoplasty for deviated septum correction for you!!!!

Some states tried (personhood). They will try again along with banning abortion nationwide

I had more than 10 plastic surgeries before I was 14 for a burn. So yeah they kind of do.

Oklahoma, South Carolina, and Virginia have all introduced measures that would ban gender-affirming care for some adults.
