1. The rebranding lost me totally when I saw their flag:



They picked baby blue and baby pink... Like seriously, what the fuck.

2. It's a tricky one.

On one hand, I have a lot of sympathy for people who grow up with the horrible realisation that their sexual preferences aren't ageing along with them (although this sympathy doesn't extend to anybody who acts on their urges at all, like you pointed out). In the UK, I don't think they're even able to talk to a psychologist about it because doctor-patient confidentiality doesn't apply when there is any perceived risk to a minor.

However, I totally agree with you that normalising it in any way would be really harmful. As horrible as their lives must be, their continued criminalisation is probably necessary, whether they have acted on their urges (yet) or not.

How about mandatory castration? Do you think that would allow them to be accepted back into society?
