Great idea, so simple yet you're the only one who actually thought of this. You rock!

I think you're trying to create nuances where there aren't any.

Sorry, but your case is far from being nuanced. You had an accident and it required reconstruction so it would look normal. Same way circumcision is acceptable when there's, for example, a really bad case of phimosis.

Forget about your accident. Imagine your parents had shit for brains and no nose because of some sick family tradition. So they wanted a plastic surgeon to amputate your nose so you'd be like them. It's their choice, right? They get to make that decision in your behalf, right?

Of course, in real life you wouldn't even get near the scalpel and social services would be on them quicker than you could say "keep the government off my nose".

So, if a parent wants to perform unneeded plastic surgery on a baby (a nosejob, botox, etc) you think the government should stay out of it because it could end up with the government disallowing a needed surgery arbitrarily (burn victim). That is your argument?

Medical decisions are decided by a medical doctor. This is not hard.

Not if it implies cutting off parts of their body for no medically accepted reason.

If he has a medical issue and circumcision is the solution, sure. If it's for the common bulshit reasons, hell no, why is that even a question?

Being necessary for medical reasons is a good reason. Doing it because "it gets dirty" and "it looks better" is not. Unfortunately the latter is the most common reason.

I do support everyone's right to modify their body however they see fit, including gender affirming care

Well...this seems sensible. It's a personal decision so it's everyone's right...

If a parent makes a decision on their baby's behalf, then that is the parents decision, and no law should be able to dictate otherwise.

Oh, I see. Except the baby.

I got some asshole to run full speed into a chunk of some other car's bumper doing that, and I gotta say it was the best high I've ever had!

Jesus! See this bulge in my pants? That was all you.

That, or he grew up to find it's the only way he can get off now.

Someone was overdosing. If he was too slow he would loose his chance to fear for his safety and shoot him dead.

I'm a millenial who does tech support in a school and I see this every day. Older people and young kids generally are pretty clueless about doing anything in a computer.

I always thought the generations after the millennials would use a computer as second nature as they would be born when computers were already everywhere. Instead, they are just as useless as boomers.

But millenials always manage the basics. And learn stuff quick when they have too. I doesn't matter if it's a teacher or a janitor. It's a different mindset.

Uh? I'm Portuguese and it works in the same in my language. I don't know what the big deal is. You get the gender by the arti...

Oh...

Ok, so what's difference?

If I enter a theater through the backdoor without paying, is that theft?

It depends. In Europe they're pretty much part of the ecosystem. But in Australia and some parts of the US they can be devastating.

Fire that cop and give the acorn a badge.

I've seen videos of starving Palestinian children and not once have I seen them condemn Hamas and the October 7th attacks! The audacity of those people!

That's what happens when all the blood flows to your head.
