Allowing 16-year-olds to change gender risks ‘opening floodgates’ to irreversible surgeries, SNP told.

SNP plans to lower the age at which Scots can legally change their gender to 16 risk “opening the floodgates” to allowing teenagers to access irreversible gender reassignment surgeries on the NHS, campaigners have warned.

I have to wonder how the NHS will cope? Will it end up with private hospitals doing surgery and the taxpayers picking up the bill? The SNP should be concerned about BASIC health services instead of digging minefields.

wee_val Sturgeon's lost the place on GRA. The ordinary Scot on the street does not want this shite.

lumping all kids together,without thought to, the damage that will do,this is a personal agenda of hers,so she thinks its right for all,its not,this is a very dangerous precedence she is setting,hence why members and officials are leaving in droves. her GRA policy dangerous.~

Bibbeth6 With the Scottish NHS in crisis, where are they going to find the staff to perform these irreversible surgeries, they are a bunch of virtue signalling clowns😡

murdo_fraser Should this even be considered as a funding priority in today’s NHS?

Snp are making laws that will be the channel for alot of child grooming. These laws trying to give minors more power is just madness.

Children in some schools are being taught that Lesbian and Homo sexual activities and same sex marriage is the way of the world ,and it's all about who you love. The next British government needs to do a u turn and make it all ILLEAGAL If there is to be any future at all.

The SNP Scottish 'government' is seriously conflicted. It claims you can choose your gender at aged 4, you can choose to get jagged at aged 12, you can vote at 16 but, as your brain isn't sufficiently developed until you're 25, you shouldn't face custodial sentences. Nuts.

Sturgeon and the fantasy disturbed gender world has to end. She has to go. And how are they getting 'surgeries' with all surgeries years behind due to covid. Will she put them at the top of the list. Yea you can put yer mortgage on it.

Let's say the brain doesn't match the body for some people, we can't know until the brain develops into being an adult if it truly is different to the body (the changes make the full gender differences). Wait until adulthood to make such decisions.
