@amyworrall@mastodon.social @SecondUniverse@autistics.life probably. My personal opinion and concent was not at all developed at the age of 16...
Imagine i would place a tatoo... The act not even comparable, but just as an example for the state of mind at 16

@chisop@todon.eu @amyworrall@mastodon.social Young people do face serious life choices and can do so responsibly. I think the real problem is whether a young person is truly given a voice or they are subject to heavy pressure from medics and family members.

@chisop@todon.eu @amyworrall@mastodon.social @SecondUniverse@autistics.life tattoos are a matter of taste, which naturally migrates over time. Easy to regret. Asking a 16 year old if they have a sense of their gender is likely to get a more concrete answer and most teens would want a strong voice in such decisions.
