    IDK, so far here this morning on just our little forum here we have identified a several $B ( and rising) in surgeries that could and should be re-classified to their proper place as “elective” so that those expenses could then be removed from the insurance pool. It’s a start to fixing the health care/insurance crisis!!!!

    Oh here come the rest of the Libby’s insults. So far we have sexist, ignorant, immature. Oh well, you guys go ahead and bring it! All of those are better than being stupid, and our society’s stupidity in even allowing this kind of bullshit “medical care” to be in the insurance pool is what got us all here talking about it.

    Explain how a procedure that improves the mental and physical well being is not healthcare. Start by defining healthcare.

    Explain how "cut off their pecker" is not insensitive and disrespectful language meant to delegitimize a real and complex issue.

    So you're comparing female genital mutilation in Africa with circumcisions on males in the US?

    I'll leave the healthcare decisions to doctors and patients, not right-wing bigots.

    Sex reassignment surgery isn't done on children although I guess you believe everything that you read on the Internet.

    That trumpet blast when a hot girl walked by must have been quite the scene, too.

    LOL. Did you not read the thread on here about the 13 year old? I'm sure that was the only one...

    Why not start with how it does help them instead instead of asking me to show how it doesn’t. Hard evidence please, not democrat and academic gobbledygook?

    No need for sensitivity here and you’re being way overboard in claiming disrespect. So I’m not going to address your ridiculous request.

    Could not agree more. But some doctors who will work for blood money and liberals who see a political opportunity for more division have already attached their trailers to this truck.

    Permanent gender changing surgeries on confused and possibly mentally unstable children and young adults is certainly not in line with helping these people. It is enabling their demons to permanently ruin or at least scar their lives.

    I only gave up referring to that one because Tilly politely requested it. You all not only still practice it but have enlarged the circle. I hope you guys wash your hands a lot!

    Doesn't work that way. You said "don't call it healthcare". I asked you why not. The burden is on you to substantiate the claim.

    FYI... shifting the burden of proof - "Making a claim that needs justification, then demanding that the opponent justifies the opposite of the claim."

    Also, if you don't know how these surgeries help gender dysphoria sufferers, HOW IN THE HELL can you assert it's not healthcare? Isn't that an argument of ignorance fallacy?

    Do you really consider asking for elaboration a "ridiculous request"? Or do you find your position of intolerance and cruelty too difficult to justify?

    Finally, how is it not healthcare?

    Why change the topic to sports? The vast majority of gender dysphoria sufferers are not athletes.

    Is that the only argument you're capable of participating in?
