Aw, hell no! If an adult wants to mutilate themselves with their own money it's on them, but leave minors and taxpayer money alone.
Spoiler alert: You will never be a real woman because surgeons are not gods. You will be a mutilated, medicated, shell of a person. Get professional mental help, or don't, I don't care either way.

The American Medical Association (AMA) has suggested that taxpayers should subsidize uterus transplants worth up to $300,000 to help transgender women get pregnant
Arguments were made to reduce the cost of the surgery in its Journal of Ethics issue in June titled Patient-Centered Transgender Surgical Care.
But the AMA has been criticized for floating the idea and has been accused of holding an 'activist position'.
It argued that trans women's inability to bear children may cause them to experience 'psychological dissonance' which undermines their health and well-being.
It comes as doctors pioneering uterus transplants believe they are on the verge of allowing transgender women to give birth to their own children.
The AMA says trans women who want to give birth can 'plausibly justify' the subsidy of uterus transplants which cost up to $300,000.
'Transwomen lack a trait (the ability to bear children) that may cause them to experience psychological dissonance in a way that undermines their health and well-being,' Timothy F. Murphy and Kelsey Mumford wrote in the Journal of Ethics.
'The lack of a uterus also closes off the prospect of gestating a child in a way that is available to women as a class.
'It follows that lack of a uterus is an obstacle to full participation in the social goods attached to women's identity.'
As if the AMA didn't lose enough credibility during covid. I know there are good docs, we have several here on F16, but the AMA is *******izing your profession. Is their a competing organization that represents good doctors and not activists?Quote:
Now there is a movement within the American Medical Association to say, "Let's do this in biologic men or biologic men who identify as women".
'If you remember, for decades, doctors have identified transgender people with chromosomal tests and clear-cut biologic features, but now there's a movement where some doctors and the American Medical Association is saying people should be able to pick their gender change freely as a matter of personal choice.'
He added: 'That's why you can walk into a Planned Parenthood as a child and walk out with a bottle of hormones. They believe it's the job of the medical profession to simply affirm what you want to do.'
Aw, hell no! If an adult wants to mutilate themselves with their own money it's on them, but leave minors and taxpayer money alone.
