Dr. Drescher touches on detransition, & a study of girls who had a hard time desisting after social transition. Saving face is huge for teens. Ehrensaft's cavalier endorsement of kid transition indicates little concern for either LG youth being wrongly transitioned, or desisters.

Though the study is not referred to by name, pretty sure it's this 2011 paper by Steensma et al. Who will care about and care for the many more detransitioners/desisters who are appearing almost every day, as affirmative care becomes the norm? https://journals.sagepub.com/doi/abs/10.1177/1359104510378303?journalCode=ccpa …pic.twitter.com/10AUOeCf4c

Another researcher-clinician who has sounded the alarm about affirmative "care" is Dr. Eric Vilain. https://www.nbcbayarea.com/investigations/New-Medical-Guidelines-Open-Door-for-Transgender-Children-to-Begin-Physically-Transforming-Bodies-at-Earlier-Ages--444259043.html …pic.twitter.com/bU49pu5mEe

Vilain: "I'm actually wondering what are we trying to accomplish here? Are we trying to reduce the number of gay & lesbian adults?"

Update: It appears that NBC Bay Area removed the video clip showing Dr. Vilain discussing the potential harms to LG youth from early transition. Here it is on YouTube:https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-wjObOeXZhA&feature=youtu.be …

They preserved another part of Vilain's interview (as well as a mom saying she'd rather have a "trans daughter than a dead son"), but removed that crucial bit. Why? Could it be because it might cause viewers to wonder if the LGB + T is an entirely healthy alliance?

This is some twisted fucked up shit and I'd LOVE to have a 1 on 1 grandmother moment with this twisted fuck Diane Ehrensaft! She might have w/e for PHD. ect., but I have street wise, common sense SHE will NEVER be able to debate! LEAVE OUR CHILDREN ALONE!

I watched a YouTube video of Strong City cult' of 'Michael,' aka Wayne Bent. Scary how easily people can be drawn to cultish behaviour. When politicians &'experts' start following people with mental health issues, dysphorias, Munchausen's, etc, it's like a psychological horror
