My point was that the breathless hyperbole about "gender affirming" surgery is actually in direct opposition to "traditional male stereotype" of the same group--thus invalidating that the concern is a genuine issue rather than political rhetoric.
As to whether teenage boys should be getting that surgery? That's .. more complicated. Should one that lost 100+ pounds to be healthier be able to get that surgery? Probably. How big should the growth be before it becomes "medical"? Don't know.
This is why stuff like this should be left to doctors who actually understand the circumstances of the patient.

You didn't invalidate the concern at all and just if anything bolstered it. One reason why people voted for Trump (I wouldn't vote for him myself) is that any discussion on these topics gets called a phobia or an ism.

If they're an adult, they can do what they like.

Just because someone is a doctor does not mean they have an unquestionable moral or ethical compass, there are good doctors and bad doctors. When homosexuality was illegal in the UK, doctors would chemically castrate gay men.
Making it harder for teenage boys having surgery to fit a stereotype sounds like a win?
I don't think you thought that point through.
