    No one remotely serious is advocating children be given gender affirming medication without professional oversight. I’m sorry that that person tried to force you into a gender identity, we should be moving to a world where we can try different identities to see what fits us best and I’m happy that you were able to find your gender identity. But the idea that you trying out different pronouns on Discord is remotely comparable to teenager who was in GIDS is a dangerous conflation. To get on hormone therapy on GIDS (before it was scrapped) you had to show consistent signs of distress.
