Pediatricians chart growth and development marking height weight, age of walking, talking and other landmarks. Sexual maturity is one of them. Most pediatricians, psychologists and psychiatrists would acknowledge normal episodes of gender confusion during early adolescence. Hormones arrive rather suddenly and in significant quantity. Hormones do not arrive with a label or an instruction book. Rapid physical change, growth, emotional and mental maturation all characterize adolescence. Moments of gender confusion and lots of other growth surprises should be expected, supported and forgiven. By age 21, all these growth issues usually resolve themselves.
Genital mutalation of adolescents for any reason amounts to assault.
The Devil promises a utopia of worry-free egalitarianism beckoning you to an Orwellian hell of despondency. Its a matter of giving or taking. Work for your family and community supporting the common good, or take from the wealth of those who produce and promise benefits to those who do not and those destroyed by the theft of their own creation.
