[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]What has opposing these things done to help you “solve” the problem of kids being trans? [/quote]

The medical establishment needs to provide care based on science and research not ideology. When the care deviates from science trouble will ensue. Part of what also needs to be done is understanding why there has been a surge of teenagers identifying as transgender especially girls when it used to be very rare primarily affecting males. A good start would be the US adopting a more cautious approach similar to other countries. A child's future fertility and sexual function is potentially on the line along with other permanent effects. Why would you not want protocols based on strong science and research?

"A series of Europe-based systematic reviews of evidence for the benefits and risks of puberty blockers and cross-sex hormones have shown a low certainty of benefits. Specifically, longitudinal data collected and analyzed by public health authorities in Finland, Sweden, the Netherlands and England have concluded that the [b]risk-benefit ratio of youth gender transition ranges from unknown to unfavorable."[/b]

You are arguing with people not able to critically assess your points because they have fully bought into the idea that if you dont trans the kids, they will die. They think that if you don't rush to surgery, the kid will commit suicide. So when you say, hold up, the evidence of this being helpful is weak and the evidence of it being harmful is much stronger, they can't comprehend how that is a reasonable and indeed compassionate concern.  They literally think these kids are dropping like flies, dying off due to a lack of affirmation-- surgical and otherwise. [/quote]

Way to project. We don’t all think that. [/quote]
