The decision was made after post-publication review by additional experts.https://blogs.plos.org/everyone/2019/03/19/correcting-the-scientific-record-and-an-apology/ …

Although the study represents a valid contribution to the scientific literature, its framing, given its limit to parental observations, needed to be corrected and clarified. A Formal Comment by a member of our Editorial Board provides further context.https://journals.plos.org/plosone/article?id=10.1371/journal.pone.0212578 …

We recognize that issues with the study should have been addressed prior to publication. We have and will learn from the case, and since have completed an internal restructure so that we can better support our Editorial Board &are better equipped to serve individual communities

We want to extend our apologies to the trans and gender variant community and others affected by the shortcomings of the initial review. PLOS is an inclusive, open and non-discriminatory publisher that deeply cares for the concerns of this community.

We’ve completed a restructure of our internal editorial team by subject areas to help them better serve individual communities and we welcome transgender scientists on our editorial board. For joining the Editorial Board please email our Editor-in-Chief at jheber@plos.org

You do realize it's not just trans people who have an interest and a stake in Dr. Littman's work? Will you work to include their perspectives as well?https://twitter.com/4th_WaveNow/status/1108112250441732097 …

Are you asking me? Will *I* work to include the perspectives of groups that don't believe I have a right to exist or be addressed respectfully? Of course not! Just like you won't work to make the world safer for the trans people in your life. Bye!
