Why does Chelsea Manning's lawyer fly into a rage that someone wrote an article which included (for the first time in the US MSM) two teen girls who thought they were trans, but changed their minds? Two girls. Along with happy trans teens. Why the vitriol? https://twitter.com/thehomoarchy/status/1012446249201496064 …

(Above tweet is only a smattering of the hyperbolic reactions spreading like a virus on social media.) So: An article that devotes half its space to a few cases of desistance/detransition, the other half to strongly supporting medical transition is literally killing people. /6

Real investigative journalists search for nuance. Reporting complex issues is best done by those who AREN'T invested in only one side--or who are vulnerable to emotional blackmail. The voices of desisters/detransitioners, & their families, also deserve to be heard. /fin

Detransitioners are apostates to gender religion.

This is a straight up lie. No one says you can't mention those cases. The issue is the framing. Using said cases as justification to deny treatment to others is what is directly responsible for causing irreversible trauma. Maybe stop using it as an excuse not to support kids.

What does it mean to "support kids?" Having an ethical objection to underage children undergoing potentially irreversible transition processes when they're not old enough to consent to sex or buy a pack of cigarettes is not an attack om children.
