Read that again: "Squashing research risks injuring the health of an unknown number of troubled adolescent girls. Rachel, now 21, believes she latched on to a trans identity as a way of coping with on-off depression and being sexually abused as a child."

Diane Ehrensaft, top US gender therapist, would have us think mothers like Janette (whose 21-yr-old daughter is a grateful desister) are akin to KKK members. Who will call Ehrensaft out on this defamation--a libel spewed over & over by trans activists? https://www.economist.com/united-states/2018/09/01/why-are-so-many-teenage-girls-appearing-in-gender-clinics …pic.twitter.com/VsfwXHotVG

My daughter was not part of LL's study but has a similar story (minus sexual abuse). Here (edited) she talks to Janice Turner of the Times, 10 months ago. I was not in the room when she gave this interview.pic.twitter.com/nhdpPYlzsM

This study reveals an issue of competence and therefore training of gender therapists—it does NOT invalidate the existence of gender dysphoria. On BOTH sides, there’s a misguided & damaging absolutism in determining a child is/isn’t trans & then acting inflexibly—that’s wrong.

Gender Dysphoria =/= Born in the wrong body. GD is a pattern of symptoms around not fitting in with or feeling comfortable with the gendered expectations, prescriptions and proscriptions of culture and other people. The belief in "Born in the Wrong Body" may offer an explanation>

Just heard about your page and this is the first thing i see, THANK YOU! Children are still learning about themselves, their brains & bodies are still developing! It should be illegal to allow a child to make a decision like that while so young
Thanks. Twitter will use this to make your timeline better. UndoUndo

Of course some kids will change their minds! Many of these kids are suffering from diagnosed mental health issues as well as dysphoria. Where is the guidance to help them work through underlying issues before rushing to affirm and transition these kids?

Exactly! My son has anxiety and is on two mind-altering meds, but the gender clinic doesn't care. They just hand out hormones like candy without even addressing underlying issues.
