      1/ You miss the point. Mothers aren't "diagnosing" (scare quotes noted); they're **observing** a kid (whom they know rather well) suddenly change from a happy person to one hellbent on T & top surgery. We also observe clinicians endorsing this desire in 1 or 2 visits.https://twitter.com/jessesingal/status/1082096327000055808 …

      4/ "real" in the sense that yes, it seems to happen sometimes. But that's a far cry from a mom "diagnosing" her kid with a "condition" that is so controversial. You can't say for sure what's going on with these kids. That's why an article like this needs to be written more

      2/ You discount the insights of a "bunch of mothers" while exhorting them to trust the wisdom of gender therapists. You've interviewed detransitioners; some of them have written how their therapists were abysmal at actually exploring issues, instead rubber stamping transition.

      3/ You concede there are bad therapists, but you somehow don't get how MANY of them there are; you also don't get how frightened the good ones are to do decent therapy because of trans-activist pressure to affirm, affirm, affirm lest they be accused of "conversion therapy."

          4/ This therapist (who had to write under a pseudonym to avoid destroying her own career) writes eloquently about her work with trans-identified youth, and the pressure she was under to abandon her well-honed clinical judgment.https://4thwavenow.com/2015/08/22/exiles-in-their-own-flesh-a-psychotherapist-speaks/ …

          5/ You hold up certain gender therapists as paragons of clinical skill, as if what they told you in an interview represents the reality most families experience on the ground when their child suddenly demands drastic medical intervention and her parents seek help.

          6/ A therapist you frequently quote said this about the current state of affirmative care. Perhaps because you, Jesse, have not had the experience of a therapist immediately endorsing your child's wish to irreversibly alter themselves you lack a certain insight into the issue.pic.twitter.com/B39W3aZm84

          7/ If you keep writing on this topic, maybe seek out a therapist like Lane Anderson (who wrote the piece linked above) & ask her why she left a beloved job because of the immense pressure to simply affirm & and not delve. You seriously underestimate the magnitude of the problem.pic.twitter.com/9xNKaVeQ5L
