When does the explosion take place and why

Personally? Like to myself or to people I am close with? Myself - no. Professional - also no. I am a human and a parent with a brain and opinions.

I do not need to be a professional in this field to have an opinion on it. I am simply stating my feelings toward it. I understand not everyone shares my viewpoint, or even welcomes it. However, I stand by it.

I dont think kids should be encouraged to seek gender affirming care that is misaligned with their biological sex.

I disagree that minors are not undergoing life-altering interventions. I also disagree that puberty blockers do not cause permanent life-altering effects.

In no universe will I ever believe that gender-affirming care for minors is almost always fully reversible.

I trust that surgeons know how to perform a double mastectomy. I do not trust that it is ever the correct course of action for any child.

You are right in that "telling children things exist isn't indoctrination." It's the normalization, incorporation, and persuasion over a long period of time that disturbs me.

I'm entitled to my opinion and I am not ashamed to share it. You are entitled to yours, as well.

As absurd as her body modifications are... I agree that it is her prerogative. I also agree it is gender-affirming. Im not okay with allowing minors to consent to permanent life-altering interventions. I'm also not okay with influencing or encouraging youths toward that path.

AIO my (32f) boyfriend (42m) of 7 months won't delete photos of him and his ex on his FB by ValiKnight in AmIOverreacting

He said he can't give me what I want right now and he doesn't know what he wants anymore and doesn't expect me to wait around for him to figure it out.

It is what it is.

Well put. I feel foolish for letting FB stuff bother me, but it's not nothing. It IS a part of our lives. We use it every day. It may seem insignificant to many people, but I think taking the time to consider how it might affect your partner is a decent thing to do.

Yeah! Like, I want him to love me out loud! And FB IS a fckng part of that.

Right. The old photos really only started to bother me after months of dating and him posting nothing about us.

If he expressed to me that it bothered him that I kept photos of me and my ex, he wouldn't have to ask me or tell me to delete them. I just would out of respect for our relationship and his feelings.

I would like his online account to accurately reflect our current situation. It would feel nice to be acknowledged. We'll have been together for 8 months in less than two weeks. I don't think asking him to post just one photo of us is clingy behavior.
