Original Note:
The video clip shows the lawyer talking about how children as young as 2 might not identify as the gender they were assigned. He is not advocating for surgery for minors, and "gender affirming care" does require surgery. Children are not being castrated. https://www.factcheck.org/2023/05/scicheck-young-children-do-not-receive-medical-gender-transition-treatment/ https://www.hrc.org/resources/get-the-facts-on-gender-affirming-care https://apnews.com/article/fact-check-transgender-surgery-medicine-legislation-lgbtq-491630629027 https://www.hrc.org/press-releases/icymi-ap-debunks-extremist-claims-about-gender-affirming-care https://www.hsph.harvard.edu/news/features/gender-affirming-surgeries-rarely-performed-on-transgender-youth/ https://www.aclund.org/en/gender-affirming-health-care-myths
