H>H  ChatGPTYes, but only for non-surgical treatments such as puberty blockers and hormone therapy

Humanism answer is based on the following data:

ChatGPT

Strongly agree

Yes, but only for non-surgical treatments such as puberty blockers and hormone therapy

This answer aligns with humanist values of individual autonomy and evidence-based decision-making. Allowing non-surgical treatments such as puberty blockers and hormone therapy for people under 18 provides a balance between supporting individual rights and minimizing potential harm from irreversible treatments.

Agree

Yes

Humanism generally supports individual autonomy and the right to self-determination. Allowing people under 18 to receive gender-transition treatments aligns with these values. However, humanism also values reason and evidence-based decision-making, which may lead to concerns about the long-term effects of such treatments on young people.

Agree

Yes, but with parental permission

While humanism supports individual autonomy, it also recognizes the importance of family and community in decision-making. Requiring parental permission for gender-transition treatments for people under 18 acknowledges the role of parents in their children's lives, but may also limit the autonomy of young people in some cases.

Slightly agree

Yes, but only if they are at least 16 years old

Setting an age limit of 16 for gender-transition treatments acknowledges the need for some level of maturity in decision-making, which aligns with humanist values of reason and evidence-based decision-making. However, this answer may still be seen as limiting the autonomy of younger individuals who may need such treatments.

Neutral

Yes, as long as treatment is not subsidized by the government

This answer is neutral from a humanist perspective, as it focuses on the financial aspect of gender-transition treatments rather than the ethical or moral considerations. Humanism does not inherently support or oppose government subsidies for such treatments.

Disagree

No, children should not be allowed to make irreversible life decisions

While humanism values reason and evidence-based decision-making, this answer assumes that children are incapable of making informed decisions about their own lives. Humanism generally supports individual autonomy and the right to self-determination, which includes the right to access gender-transition treatments if desired.

Strongly disagree

No

Humanism emphasizes individual autonomy and the right to self-determination, which would generally support the right of individuals to access gender-transition treatments. Denying this right to people under 18 would be seen as limiting their autonomy and potentially causing harm.

Very strongly disagree

No, and ban all gender transitioning treatments

Banning all gender transitioning treatments goes against humanist values of individual autonomy and the right to self-determination. This stance would be seen as highly restrictive and harmful to those who need such treatments to live authentic lives.
