It’s lack of a scientific way of telling in advance who the scalpel will help and who it will harm that is the problem

But we're not talking about pre-teens getting gender reassignment surgery. We're not even talking about anyone under 18 getting surgery. After that, if someone's gone through what experts have recommended - it's their choice.

At risk of "Dr Cheryl" tagging Twitter Support into the thread, in the US, under 18s DO get gender surgeries. Not a secret. And gender docs agitate for no minimum age for such surgeries. Jazz Jennings (age 17) is slated for "bottom surgery" this month.https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MO-RkaVMHnQ …

It's the Wild West in the US of A, with multiple surgeons operating on the genitals of minors. http://www.jsm.jsexmed.org/article/S1743-6095(17)30108-X/pdf …pic.twitter.com/eb2MzQ6HCd

See, these gender docs have iatrogenically created a generation of "trans" young people who crave genital surgeries because their natal puberty was blocked. Of COURSE they want to go through puberty with their peers.https://4thwavenow.com/2016/03/20/minor-surgery-top-us-gender-doc-agitates-to-lower-age-for-genital-surgery/ …

No. Again, more utter bullshit. Maybe you're the one with nefarious intentions. Maybe you've taken advantage of the natural confusion & vulnerability that parents feel when their child struggles about something controversial that would naturally cause concern for happiness.

"Utter bullshit?" It's a statement by one of the top gender clinicians in the United States, on the public WPATH Facebook page. Shoot the messenger all you like.

Here's a surprise for you. I know Dr. Jo. I told you I trained at CHLA. I had meetings every week w/Jo in our clinic. She's part of the decision made to assign me to work w/gendered & transgendered youth. So if she trusted me and I personally know her views... Where do I start?

Perhaps by questioning the narrative in the US (and it's only the US) that this is the best (and only) route to go? It's experimental. Maybe start there. You're an investigator. Maybe turn the spotlight on your own?
