Remember: No actual doctors are involved in executions. It is exactly that scenario that is forbidden by the Hippocratic oath.
When the state is making any claims about medical concerns, it is NOT coming from a doctor.

Just when trying to guess someone's age (we'll assume completely family-friendly and above board), think back to high school. How old did you and your peers look? Now go take a look at high schoolers today. They probably seem a lot younger than you did. The longer it's been (i.e. the older you are), the younger they look. Which means, "when I see it" depends entirely on the age of the viewer.
This isn't even just about perception and memory- modern style is based on/influenced heavily by youth. It's also continuing to move in the direction. This is why actors in their 30s - with carefully managed hair, skin, makeup, and wardrobe - have been able to convincingly portray high schoolers. This means that it's not just you - teens really are looking younger each year. But they're still the same age.
This creates a significant legal issue - AI generated images have no age, nor is there consent.
The difference in appearance between age 16 and 18 is minimal, but the legal difference is immense. This is based entirely on a concept that cannot apply.
How do you define what's depicting a fictional child? Especially without including real adults? I've met people who believe that preferring a shaved pubic area is pedophilia. This is even though the vast majority of adult women do so. On the flip side, teenagers from the 70s and 80s would be mistaken for 40+ today.
Even the extremes aren't clear. Adult star "Little Lupe", who was 18+ in every single appearance, lacked most secondary sex characteristics. Experts testified in court that she could not possibly be an adult. Except she was, and there's full documentation to prove it. Would AI trained exclusively on her work be producing CSAM?
You're absolutely right. Such procedures should be treated the same, as much as is appropriate. (vasectomies are a much more minor procedure, so things like recovery support would be different)
If their beliefs get in the way, they need to find another profession. This is pretty well established across the entire industry.
You must provide the same level of care for a pregnant teen, a smoker dying of lung cancer, or a neo Nazi. It doesn't matter how their lifestyle offends you.
You seem to have misinterpreted my posts. Informed decisions are ok, but someone else making that decision is not. It's not sexist, because it works exactly the same if the roles are reversed.
How so? If I were considering a vasectomy, I would expect to be told that it may be an issue for my future wife. I would take issue if I were told that such a decision should be left to her, and not mine to make.
The headline kinda buries the lede. From the article, "(the) gynecologist told her the choice should be up to her future husband".
A discussion about potential regrets is a lot more benign than denying her autonomy.
To add to this, imagine the reverse. Can you imagine if they passed up better opportunities, just so that it could happen on a specific date on the calendar?
Sounds absurd, right?
"handle" is doing a lot of heavy lifting there. The signs are already there that all of these edge cases will just be programmed as "safely pull over and stop until conditions change or a human takes control". Which isn't a small task in itself, but it's a lot easier than figuring out to continue (e.g.) on ice.
I think you're approaching the wrong aspect. While that could be a scam where a man is impersonating a woman, there are plenty where it's actually a woman running the scam. There are plenty of red flags here, and those don't change.
The problem is that I'm sure your friend is aware of those red flags. He's also choosing to ignore them. I suspect he doesn't do well with women IRL, and this at least gives him hope.
Assuming that's all true, this is way above the pay grade of random people on the Internet.
How close are these surrounding towns? What's the population, particularly for the demographics you would appeal to?
Often, it's not worthwhile to bring your favorite culture to your home. Just go to the culture where it already exists. Often, these quiet, boring places are populated by people that WANT to live in a place that's quiet and boring. It doesn't make much sense for anyone to move there if they don't.
