      4/ have no control group of non-medicalized desisters, but are only studying those children/teens they've put on blockers, cross-sex hormones, and/or surgeries. One more thing about the suicide stat Spack uses (as they all do):

      5/ Where are the statistics on suicides of 16-25 year olds prior to 2007 (the first year in the US the "Dutch protocol" was used)? If Spack is saying *only* medical transition works for youth dysphoria, there should be a significant drop in rates across the board.pic.twitter.com/PZgQAjBe2Y

      6/ As always in these discussions, it's vital to mention that even the researchers behind the most-cited 41% attempt rate (of ADULTS) urge caution in interpreting that figure, which includes ALL self harm, not only actual attempts to end life. http://williamsinstitute.law.ucla.edu/wp-content/uploads/AFSP-Williams-Suicide-Report-Final.pdf …pic.twitter.com/Hpnf7O17oM

      7/ This is not to dismiss the significance of self harming behaviors. But Spack & others bandy about the 40+% ATTEMPT number, which most people take to mean serious attempts to end life. This disingenuous use of stats terrorizes parents into believing med transition is only way.

      8/ The most-cited 41% study (again--of ADULTS) also cautions that the survey did not control for mental health, prior trauma, & other factors that contribute to self harm. To present, as Spack does, transition as the singular cure for self harm, demands proof. Where is the data?pic.twitter.com/D5KFe1uhb3

      9/ These doctors, along with their media handmaidens, are emotionally blackmailing parents (and the rest of the public) every chance they get. It's coercive and it's hard to believe they don't know exactly what they're doing when they leave out important details.

      10/ Ray Blanchard called out the emotional blackmail in this interview. He was talking about trans activists, but nowadays it's hard to tell the difference between them & some gender doctors.https://twitter.com/4th_WaveNow/status/1051180038362714115 …

      11/ Returning to the above point about lack of a control group, any reputable doctor should be highly interested in the population of young people (even if a minority) who have desisted or detransitioned. If ...

      13/ ...of youth who desisted or detransitioned would be analogous to an oncologist ignoring or excluding patients who were successfully treated by less drastic means than radiation & chemotherapy. Trans activism's toxic effect on medicine is so obvious here. They have succeeded..

      14/ ...in convincing a large swathe of the med profession, media, & government that it's "transphobic" to value desistance over persistence--in kids. How topsy-turvy is that? How can anyone seriously believe that avoidance of lifelong medical treatment is not a better outcome?

          15/ Even if desisters are small minority, their experience matters. In medicine, patients who heal via less drastic treatment are sought & studied. Why? To understand how OTHER patients might benefit. The (very) few HIV+ patients who spontaneously became virus-free are 1 example.

          16/ "Almost no one changes their mind" is the trans-activist mantra. If this is true, are you saying those regretters don't matter? At the very least, STUDY THEM to avoid false positives. We're talking irreversible sterility/removal of body parts, so this should be a no-brainer.
