    The government should do the same and end welfare and child support.

    Let those "families" handle their own business.

    If you as an adult decide to do medically risky stuff to yourself for your 'condition' that's your choice.

    It's basically extreme cosmetic surgery and not a true non-mental health problem like cancer or other diseases.

    It's amazing the lies people will tell themselves to justify their bias.

    Five minutes later, they'll contradict what they've already said.

    They can't make their own thoughts make sense. Why? Because it's illogical.

    Let's say you got cancer or Parkinson's or some real health problems, that's what the bulk of the money should be spent to fix.

    If your kid likes some rainbow color and plays dress up, that's fine, they're kids. this doesn't mean you should waste thousands of dollars to damage his organs.

    or make grammatically wrong use of pronouns

    The governments job is to protect its citizens, you fail at being a good neighbor.

    There's now decades of statistics/evidence showing single fathers create better outcomes for their children than single mothers -- yet family court will fight tooth-and-nail to give mothers full custody.

    The government isn't protecting its citizens, it's just kissing one side's ass.

    ^^^ That's the same reason why paternity tests aren't mandatory. ^^^

    You made the claim, yet you refuse to provide evidence of said claim

    If he did, it's a pretty good assumption. If you break down the prison population, you'd find that most inmates came from single-parent households, and most of those households are headed by women. You could break down the population of whatever negative outcome you want and find similar backgrounds. So the bar set by single-mothers ain't that high to begin with. Maybe single-fathers clear it, maybe they don't.
