Thread. These doctors (a resident in psychiatry, an OB/GYN, & a pediatric oncologist) seem unable to consider that ROGD is a real phenomenon impacting the health & well-being of many teens/young adults. They make up reasons to dismiss our valid concerns.https://twitter.com/jack_turban/status/1068619240884879364 …

Cool of you to not tag the people you're talking about. I can't speak for the other two but I don't know nearly enough about ROGD to have an opinion on it. My opinions are about the methodology of that one study (and open access journals). Is there a stronger study out there?

I don't see other links in that thread? Only to the one article (which itself references Littman). There is a methodological issue with a self-selected population reporting on their interpretation of somebody else's symptoms. Also, please tag people you're calling out

Hold on... is this whole argument just about whether more natal girls are going to transgender clinics than natal boys? The studies you're linking here seem to mostly show that in their data, right? But why interpret those data to mean that this is a transient thing?

Hi from one of the "bots" who runs our Twitter account. We don't yet know what longterm persistence rate will be in this new population of females, do we? Won't know for decades. We DO know there are signs of social contagion. Why do so many like you want deny that possibility?

I don't think you're reading what I've actually written,
@4th_WaveNow. I never said the word "bot" nor have I denied anything. Why should I engage with you if you seem to want to put words in my mouth?1 reply 0 retweets 0 likes
Sorry, the "bot" part was responding to the earlier comment by someone else, not you. To your earlier point, there isn't a stronger study on ROGD but Littman herself calls for one. Hers is an initial descriptive study based, yes, on parental reports. Obviously more is needed.
