A new transgender trainwreck in Australia was announced this week. New guidelines published in the Medical Journal of Australia give the green light for potentially more trans children to go on hormone replacement therapy (HRT) as young as 13, defying international guidelines. Whilst this experiment was hailed as world-leading, the minimum legal age for smoking, drinking and voting in Australia remained at 18, and it’s still 16 for consensual sex, all for good reason.
