Re: Transgender Rights
Brooks in the NYT on the NHS’ Cass Report:
https://www.nytimes.com/2024/04/18/opin ... =url-share
https://www.nytimes.com/2024/04/18/opin ... =url-share
Cass, a past president of Britain’s Royal College of Pediatrics and Child Health, is clear about the mission of her report: “This review is not about defining what it means to be trans, nor is it about undermining the validity of trans identities, challenging the right of people to express themselves or rolling back on people’s rights to health care. It is about what the health care approach should be, and how best to help the growing number of children and young people who are looking for support from the N.H.S. in relation to their gender identity.
"The fatal flaw of all revolutionaries is that they know how to tear things down but don't have a f**king clue about how to build anything."

Re: Transgender Rights
Does your basis for disregarding it as unethical start from a place substantially different than what's discussed below?Ms Harmless wrote:did you see what I posted about the Cass Report being an unethical bunch of bullshit?Bi_3 wrote:Brooks in the NYT on the NHS’ Cass Report:

I'm sure you have other criticisms, just curious if you've got some novel ones.

How does one blindly randomize gender affirming care?

Re: Transgender Rights
It’s all good, everyone gets it wrong sometimes, and on this topic in particular it’s easy to be misled by malicious activists like c4rbell0. But if you interested in understanding the X thread above explains how the report assessed and weighed the various studies and what the recommendations actually were… vs what the for-profit activist class claims it says.B wrote:Sigh.Bi_3 wrote:B wrote:How does one blindly randomize gender affirming care?

C4rb3ll0, Erin Reed, Turban, the TikTok surgeon in Florida, those types who use advocacy in this area to promote and enrich themselves instead of their cause.

Chase Strangio is one of the few high profile FTMs to be in lockstep on this, an interesting character to be sure.
