  3.  @braidenbolling7118  They still have to see a therapist either way. Some babies are already getting altering surgeries at birth without their permission. These situations do add to the trans community.

  4. My two trans male friends discovered that they were trans when they learned it was a sin in church. How do you explain that then? They weren’t the ones that knew who also discovered that they were trans while learning it was a sin.

  5. Gender dysphoria and feeling like that they belong as their birth selves. My two trans male friends knew they were transgender after they were told it was a sin in Sunday school. Described what it was well and put sin after it. My two trans male friends are from very red WV and they have the most transgender youth too out of the states.

  6. Two spirit people in the native and indigenous community have existed for many decades. They did thrive as people minus all the horrible things colonizers did to native in order to gain land. I have a two spirit friend.

  7. Two of my trans friends knew they were told being trans is a sin during Sunday school at church. WV has one of the most transgender youth out of all 50 states. It’s one of the most red states too. Kids just know and being told it’s a sin doesn’t help what the church wants to set forth.

  8. Some who de-transition feel like they are non-binary or similar. Many who do de-transition got so much hate for transitioning. Like the person above said it’s not 8%. They are correct on the stats.

  9.  @adishilo5773  ​ Where are your sources and proof for that? I’ve read the opposite. One of my friends never grew out of it and he couldn’t be on any meds until 18. His family was poor and relied on snap so his college job help pay for meds.

  12. It all depends on the school. They would email the correct person at the school.

  13. Cisgender. It means you identify with the sex assigned to you at birth.

  14.  @soldierboy8796  Not all trans people go through surgery or take medicine. Not everyone has the money. Some of them serve this country and help people who have fled from Afghanistan, Ukraine, etc. Doctors have mutilated some American bodies without their consent and the outrage is low. Have you ever served?

  15. Some parents already do it at birth and many people don’t really care or say much about it. Some children are way smarter than you think.

  17. Some of trans teen will go on to serve the country which many people don’t do already.

  18. All of my trans friends knew they were trans from going to church. Social media didn’t even help them out at all until years later after transitioning for a while. In these WV churches, they were taught that being trans was a sin and explained in depth. WV still has the most transgender youth out of all the states and it’s a small state. WV is a very red state. I can name some more transgender folks who became trans after finding out it was a sin church.

  19. Some kids are already getting plastic surgery with their parents permission. Like people said, HRT blockers aren’t permanent so people can be reversed.

  20. These are all young adults according to one of the guests and not necessarily teens. The oldest being 21 in the group.

  21. Been done even with an elderly trans woman.

  23.  @Kernel6  I will give you an example from a former trans athlete. She played soccer in high school and her team lost every game. The whole team was at a fault and she wasn’t considered one of the worst either. Her teammates did get hurt in soccer so it can get rough while she didn’t hurt anyone in soccer.

  24. Tell that to all trans kids who discovered they were trans after learning it was a sin in church. Two of my trans discovered while at church.

  25.  @si45megamera  Nope. There are people who aren’t trans that need it for medical reasons. There are athletes who use it to help cheat in sports. Doesn’t always work especially if the school or team is very bad at sports anyway.

  26. WV has the most transgender youth though they are one of the reddest states in the U.S. It’s tied with Wyoming but Wyoming is one of the smallest states. WV has 0 blue counties. It’s not about area, region, politician affiliation, etc.

  27.  @losauce521  I’m just saying youth as this video is teens. Overall state is unknown but for youth only it’s known.

  28.  @Ray03595  Charleston gazette, WYAZ, DA, etc. All WV news sources.

  29.  @norg6090  It doesn’t really happen like that. The ones who have faked it have faced the consequences of being forced into so many rules that they had to follow.

  30.  @evelyn.mp5  Girls have won state championship while competing against guys. My former female classmate with average build competed in wrestling for a season and beat every guy who was okay to wrestle with her.

  31.  @BigDominoakaGerard  There is but that’s a rare occurrence that starts at birth. There are trans people who are trans because their doctor’s mutilated their genitalia to fit the gender that they want or parents want.

  32.  @Rosedior78  Not all parents allow it. All of my trans friends come from very conservative and racist backgrounds. Two of my trans friends discovered that they were trans after learning it was a sin in church

  33. Some kids learn that it’s a sin in church then discover that they are trans. Two of my trans friends were promoted about it in church negatively and it still didn’t help the church much.

  34.  @ncjxbshj  I’ve seen a ton of teens dress like them.

  35. Trans people don’t get medicated for life. It’s just temporary. They can stop at anytime. Doctors have already put biological female patients on estrogen due to deemed masculine features without the patients knowing. Doctors have have already put male patients on testosterone due to deemed feminine features. Not all bodies will take people being medicated for life. I have trans friends who can’t afford to be medicated for life. These folks have to see therapists for a reason.
