@TheMelissaMckee@AlgonquinColleg I find it interesting how they continue to place “Identity” in the mind, then say it is how you feel, and claim it is not a Mental Illness. For reference, the brain, can’t feel anything…
This research, throughout, is wrought with this type of analysis and reporting. All the way from the Money, through to the Dutch protocols, through to the this and other modern day studies coming out. They only report the things that can lead to confirmation bias in the individuals reading it - think of it as Scientific Affirmation.
A classic in the genre of medical disinformation. 👇
A new JAMA study uses surveys to assess regret among those who received hormones as teens.
42.5% did not return the surveys.
The authors nevertheless conclude that regret was “rare,” without acknowledging the 42.5% non-response in the limitations, and their conclusion is that gender Rx should not be restricted for youth (a non-sequitur). JAMA, apparently, sees this as worthy of publication.
The Washington Post (@washingtonpost) then uncritically reports the new study’s findings, also without any mention of the 42.5%.
This study will almost certainly be citation laundered, cited again and again in medical literature, media coverage, and legislative hearings, until its “findings” become “well-established truth.”
The Dutch Leaks: 1 - ‘As leaky as a basket’
“The Dutch Protocol, once presented as a carefully constructed and evidence-based system of care, has proven to be riddled with methodological, ethical and clinical weaknesses.”

The story of how the Dutch Leaks came about is a real testament to the tenacity of parents. Determined to understand what was happening to their trans-identified kids, Dutch parents have translated some of the earliest research on medical transition into English for the very first time. Kudos to @genspect for publishing it 👇

Canada has a concerning website with portions dedicated to minor gender transition. 💉
And it should be a warning to all Americans...
Trans Care BC is a publicly funded program of British Columbia’s health authority. Much of its resources are targeted towards adults, but whole sections are specifically designed for youth.
Among the resources offered are included:
➡️ Encouragement to connect with “other trans, Two-Spirit and non-binary youth.”
➡️ A “Peer Support Directory” for children and youth, listing groups that offer chest binders, breast forms and “gender-affirming wear,” support groups for children under 12, and a group mixing 12-year-olds with 24-year-olds
➡️ Pages on “affirmation & social transition�� dedicated for children under 12
➡️ From that same under 12 section, a “Medical options” page introducing puberty blockers, cross-sex hormones and surgery
The page is well-designed and user-friendly, evidence of the money and support backing it.
Americans, beware. 🚨
Many states already point children to “gender-affirming websites,” yet not with the same amount of Canadian finesse. But activists certainly would like to.
Let’s not build the machine that sends children down a path of irreversible procedures and lifelong medical dependency.

@JamesLNuzzo Silence men, control the narrative, feminize expression, call dissent misogyny (covering up misandry), blame men’s mental health on themselves. Act surprised when their efforts for men’s mental health don’t improve the unalive statistics. Great!
@eliasholls And today, children are on the conveyor belt for this, in masses. Parents still believe the doctors. Harm still done. And the sexualization of kids, still done. Money’s legacy, is alive and well, today, and parents and activists celebrate it and insist it to be care.
