There are situations where I agree with "medical procedures" and am thankful for the physician services, and there are situations where the doctor's action fulfills a selfish mother's choice. The latter is ethically wrong from both the mother and physician... and I vote locally accordingly.

Well, so far in this post... because of your use of 'absolutes'... the scientific articles have your statements wrong on the increasing number of gender dysphoria diagnosis the social causes that influence the increased diagnoses of gender dysphoria that genital surgery has occurred for trans youth You are correct that most of society does not understand the difference between sex and gender. Again, what does Christopher Rufo say in that video that is wrong? I'm currently nodding in agreement and have open ears to better understand a different perspective.

Everything is situational. Be very specific and I'll give an opinion.

Abortion is homicide. And yes, child genital cutting is occurring (rarely) to children.

Do you know what genital surgery is frequently performed on children's genitals without the child's consent? Circumcision. WTF!

Abortions have occurred after birth. It's documented. Castrations have occurred to kids. It's documented. But why is this discussed... unless some crazy folks are talking about making it common and legal to do... or perhaps transitioning without parental permission?

Yaz and Taylor would beat the pudgy, uninspired Sadulaev we just saw at 86 kg. A fit and inspired Sad beats everyone.

There is a reason that Schools and Churches want to 'educate' children when they too young to think critically...

Who cares about this guy? He is sometimes clever but has a sleazy untrustworthy vibe.

Based on my life experience, exposure plus social / peer pressure is the most likely contributor. Examples are plenty: ice bucket challenge, one chip challenge, the cinnamon challenge, the pass out challenge, the contagion of suicidal behavior in location clusters (NLoM link), TikTok dances, sexified tween clothing, boys expecting pornstars in bed, girls kissing based on dares and drugs, drugs, rap video influence on drug usage... Okay. Now, I'm researching and am not finding many studies on the sudden increase in gender dysphoria. Still, these two seem relevant: 1,655 cases (article one - Diaz/Bailey) and 256 cases (article 2 - Littman) support the rapid onset gender dysphoria (ROGD) hypothesis.

The newspaper clipping could look like... ---------------------------------------------- A Manhattan, Kansas-based group has achieved an extraordinary feat, setting a new world record for the longest wrestling dual, which stretched an impressive 100 hours and one minute. This remarkable achievement was orchestrated by the Endless Wrestling Foundation, a dedicated organization on a mission to generate funds for charitable causes. The dual commenced on a Thursday morning and concluded at noon on the following Monday, with an ever-rotating roster of 60 passionate wrestlers divided into two formidable teams. Bolstering their efforts were numerous volunteers, along with an essential crew of 60 scorekeepers and 35 referees ensuring the event's smooth operation. These valiant wrestlers were divided into "Team Courage" and "Team Strength," all united in their noble pursuit of raising funds for multiple charitable organizations, including Operation Breakthrough, which aids children in poverty, Children's Mercy Hospital, and the Beat the Streets wrestling non-profit. In a display of unparalleled stamina, wrestlers participated in shifts, each engaging in 33 matches, lasting a total of three hours per wrestler, culminating in an astonishing 1000 matches overall. Notably, participants were confined to designated areas within the school premises, including the gym, locker room, and cafeteria until the monumental dual reached its conclusion. The age range of the wrestlers spanned from 18 to 70, ensuring a diverse and captivating spectacle for attendees. For those in the audience, the experience was more than just a sporting event; it featured live music, food trucks, and a wine and beer garden, providing additional entertainment for the supportive fans who gathered to back this extraordinary endeavor. At the conclusion of this five-day wrestling marathon, Team Courage emerged victorious with a commanding 2738 points, surpassing Team Strength's valiant effort, which tallied 1269 points. The group's overarching goal was to raise $300,000 for their chosen charities, and their commitment to this noble cause persists through a silent auction, allowing them to further contribute to their selected philanthropic organizations.

Some Midwest baseball players recently broke the Guinness World Record for the longest game by playing 100 hours straight while attempting to raise $300,000 for charity. What are some of the longest wrestling matches (Fix/Suriano, Klein/Asikainen)? What would this look like as an endless wrestling dual?

Change the two drop downs from Mens Freestyle and Qualifier to Women's Freestyle and Bracket.

Why is this challenge by Iran lost? That looks like a step out to me in real-time and on playback.

The conspiracy with evidence is that the CIA could have prevented it, messed up, and covered up their blunders.

That's a yes, I got it. This sheds light on your trolling—or, should I say, misrepresenting, passing judgment, making accusations, labeling, dodging, and doubling down on your errors. I'm curious about who awaits behind door number 3. The self-important persona behind door number 1 and the one auditioning for the role of the third Krassenstein brother behind door number 2 are both rather insufferable. I bet that the wrestler behind door number 3 is a decent person. The guy behind door number three doesn't need parenthood or a 30th birthday to show maturity.

A man who knows nothing about wrestling flew thousands of miles and spent thousands of dollars to ask his wife a question she could not answer, about a song that no one knows, that was played for a world champion who represented no country. How has the experience been so far @Wrestleknownothing?

I don't recall Dake exposing Sidakov even once during the exchange that netted him 4 points on the first challenge. It was baffling.

That Dake match score was baffling. Sidakov was jobbed but it did not change the outcome.

Size and energy + the challenge
