Well that was fun. Had a GC insist their friend's child was prescribed puberty blockers after "a single 20 minute doctor's appointment".
After nearly a day of arguing, she finally admitted it was the child's first appointment with the endocrinologist qualified to prescribe them.

All the other medical consultations about being trans the kid had before getting referred to the endocrinologist just don't count, apparently.
This makes a lot of the wild GC claims about how freely it's being done make a lot more sense if this is how they're framing it.

My friend was given gender confirming surgery on her first appointment. Shocking right?
Admittedly it was after years of hormone treatment, therapy, and many many visits to many doctors, but it was the first time she saw that surgeon so it's the only thing that counts!

I just realised I should probably put the screenshot of her finally admitting that no, it wasn't just one appointment here rather than buried in replies.
