Amid ongoing controversy over the transitioning of gender dysphoric youth, Oklahoma Gov. Kevin Stitt said he’s responsible “to protect minors” in his state and will continue to take steps to prevent children from “being permanently altered” either by hormone therapy or “gender-affirming” surgery.

“We have a duty to protect minors from a lot of things: we don’t let them drink, we don’t let them get tattoos,” Sitt told Fox News. “Their brains aren’t fully developed.”
