No, you're missing how normal this is.

The bill is broken into sections to target different aspects of transgender care. One section defines being transgender as “sexual deviation” and places it alongside “pedophilia, exhibitionism, masochism, sadomasochism, fetishism,” and more. Another defines minors for the purposes of this bill as being anyone under 21 years of age, expanding the definition to include transgender adults.

Isn't this exactly what you think of when you think of trans people? I know I think they fuck children and probably even animals and shouldn't be considered people at age 18, let alone ever. /s

Wtf is going on in this shithole.
