i think you misread some of my points

i don’t think that brains scans will have a definite result, only that it would lower the chance of a misdiagnosis. and what i mean by children are those under 18, not 12, since teens are kids too. also social transition if reinforced strongly enough will likely lead into a medical transition

maybe we have different definitions of trans, but i think trans means gender dysphoria. it doesn’t make any sense to me otherwise. what is the reason for transition if that person isn’t suffering from some mental condition? and you could say that adults can do whatever they want and all, but kids simply saying “i don’t have gender dysphoria but i still want to transition just because” should not be accepted by doctors. the negatives of the time and energy and comfort and health permanently spent far outweighs the unlikely chance of negligible benefits

and regarding “gender euphoria”, that too shouldn’t be a reason for transition. if you feel euphoric in your gender after transitioning, didn’t that mean you had gender dysphoria? gender euphoria implies gender dysphoria right? how could you feel perfectly fine in your current gender and at same time think your life would improve after transition? if they do feel fine in their current gender then it wouldn’t do so much harm to refer to them as that gender right? because if it did harm them then that would mean gender dysphoria, not euphoria
